tristancalvaire Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Roughly a minute in 10 seconds in, the song goes into it's "drop." Yet it sounds like I'm listening to the song in an entirely different room, through thick walls, while doped up on nyquil. And it's atrocious. In a bad way. As in the negative kind of 'bad', not the cool 'bad.' Anyways, any guesses as to why? It feels like they ran the whole thing through some bizarre distortion/saturation or convolution, or perhaps tight early reflections. That, or it's just incredibly poorly mixed. P.S.– if this is better suited for the lounge, feel free to move it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koinv Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I can hear what you mean, i don't think it takes away too much of the feel though. Sounds like a reverb on the main output with a mainly dry but a fair bit of wet there as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhys Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Ive noticed theres a lot of influence coming from the trap scene, I think with all that verb they are trying to create that big trap synth sound. Skrillex did it with a bit more class tho. Okey i tried but couldn't get that to display as a vid instead of a link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I'm not sure how to embed a start time. The Reason sounds far more punchier and far less drained; the verb is concentrated on the synth, not the entire mix. I must also add that in a car with a really saturated sub-range, that song is pretty intense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhys Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Thanks will try that next time. The Reason sounds far more punchier and far less drained; the verb is concentrated on the synth, not the entire mix. I must also add that in a car with a really saturated sub-range, that song is pretty intense. Yeah I think that's where they messed up, they obviously intended it to sound like that but as you say it's not got the punch of Skrillex's.
