Thanks guys for listening! :)

Live feel was what I was aiming for so happy that is there. :)
Any hints how I should get more of the bass drum and make the drums
less dynamic as you suggested? Is this the directions i've pointed the
mics or the choice of micing technique, playing or something else?
It's the first time i've tried recording a drummer.

Thanks!
Loki
