Ok, you guys gave me some great feedback on the first song I shared a while back, so here's a couple other recent mixes from that project that I'd love some feedback on. In particular, the low end isn't as solid as I would want.
Dead Man's Mule - Kind of a slow bluegrass track. This is the last song my dad wrote for this project and the last full song we recorded (for those who are into this stuff, this was done with the CAPIs on acoustic instruments and the BAE for vocals). I want to play with some volume automation on the "chorus" at the end, and I'll probably do some more tweaking of the drum programming. This one's in pretty good shape, I think, though.

The Raven's Prayer - I wrote this one, and as has been par for the course on this project, if you write it you sing it, so I apologize profusely. :lol: This is more squarely in minor-key folk rock territory, but there's a LOT of layers here - acoustic, sparse piano, and a string keyboard part as well.

Feedback on anything is welcome, but I only rarely mix vocal music so that's an area of concern, and when I burned most of the "mixed" tracks to a CD-R to toss into my car while running a few errands over the weekend I felt like the low end was pretty mushy. I've done some work to these since, but that's still an area of concern.
