Paramore Remix (ScreenCam)

[TheMikeFrequency]

I took an acapella from Haley Williams/Paramore's track Ain't It Fun and I think it turned out pretty well.

Would love to get some opinions from you pros out there. This was my third time ever using LMMS or any other beat making software. I'm starting to get the hang of things tho. If you noticed anything unusual things I did in the video, please, please let me know so I can correct my mistakes and get better. Also I used Audacity to record the electric guitars and make the final edits to the track. Thanks for checking it out! -Mike

Well done. working with long recordings in lmms is not an easy task, in fact its frustrating.

This sounds really good. Lovely remix.
Even though the kick drums aren't that loud, it really suits this track.
It's amazing what you did, with a 5 minute plus recording.
Good work dude.

Really? At first I thought the kicks were way too loud, so I turned them down. Do you have studio monitors or what? I'm currently using behringer speakers, but they're not that great so it's hard to get a perfect mix on any of my tunes. But from my end, the kicks were fine, so it's clearly a speaker issue...

Personally, I think your mix sounds great. Sure, the kick isn't too pronounced in the mix, but it's more of a rock style than EDM so I think it fits the song perfectly. I would say the some of the synths are a little on the quiet side (the wobbly bass thing in particular) but that's probably good, because the vocals are the important part and they are nice and strong.

FYI I just use headphones. My mixes aren't very good normally, but I don't think it's from my lack of studio monitors; I just don't have enough technical knowledge. How long have you been producing?

Well I just started making "beats". I've been making them for around 2 or 3 months now. But this is purely out of joy and amusement, and has become my new hobbie. Though I'm a pretty accomplished musician already. Been playing for around 13 years or so, give or take...

Here's my soundcloud, there's some dope tunes in there
