Original Than This

Not sure how I feel about this one, I quite like the main pieces and the composition but I've been trying to improve the mastering volume. In doing this I leave a lot of headroom on the channels and the master. This normally gives the mastering a lot of room to make the sound come out. In this case I think I've given too much headroom. I can hear a lot of 'air' and artefacts in the mix and I think it muddies it. Anyway something to learn from

Interesting insights into mastering. I think the headroom is where I go wrong. Everything in your mix is clear and overall level is strong. Cool crescendo approaching the mid point. The mix of elements has a fun dub feel.
