I like this piece. The drum sounds really impressive. The recordings
also sound good and crisp. It would have been lovely if the rest of the
arrangement had gotten a bit more weight in the mix.
The stars here are the full body of the shaman drums, everything else is
just extras. I could, for example, add more bass and take those
frequencies from the drums, but that takes away the whole hypnotic
feeling of the drums and that does not work for the audience: people
that are used to drum journeys. But I clearly see your point.

This has some rather unexpected harmonies. Lovely song. My regards to
Malin. I think she found a good producer/engineer in you.
Thank you very much, oh yes, she's an amazing singer!

This production has a nice bass. It really transports the almost trance
like aspects for me. Was it a conscious decision to mix the vocals so
quietly? It was a little surprising. :)
Yes, Ola (the client/artist) felt bad about putting the vocals more in
the front and I did not manage to change his mind, I guess he felt too
naked. It's a pity because he does, in my opinion, have a very good
voice when one let it out and does not need to hide behind the
instruments or use any thickening tricks. Well, maybe next time if any.
Luckily, the voice easily cuts through the mix.
Thanks for sharing all these and I am looking forward to hear more from
you.
Thank _you_, Jeanette! :-)
