I'm still sculpting a few things... but a big piece of the sound is playing out the pieces in my mind. Gives it a lot more feel...
Been working out some vocals, and it's going to cause me to throw out a lot of the progressions I made though... it's just not melding well. I should've figured to lay down the vocals first and then worried about the tune after though... it's my own damn fault

Anybody have any tips on mixing with this style? I'm getting a lot of tape compression vibe, and thinking about doing a four track tape style mix. I'm not hearing much (if any) compression on a lot of the tracks as I listen to them... so I'm not really sure what was done in this style for mastering. I'm suspicious that any, but definitely too much mastering will not sound authentic.
