    Excelent! I love this version you did. But it doesn't sound too much like Steve Harris, there's no beats at the microphone and that chorus sound of the iron maiden bass! This version of yours sounds more like Jason Newsted using his pick and an amplifier with ampeg sound! But it so good either way, and justice for Jason!

    • @alextamulis
      @alextamulis  3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hi Ennio, I totally get what you're saying. My point with Steve Harris was that I began the mix by only having the bass fader up, everything else was muted. I remember Nicko saying that Iron Maiden is centered around the bass, it is the foundation, so I followed the same rationale with this song. Thanks for stopping by, cheers!

      Now I get it. In this sense, you're right. There's no doubt that this mix you did is centered on the bass. And you did it very well! My first Metallica record was and justice for all, so it's a relief to me listening this record that practically didn't have a bass, with bass no, no needing for a Metallica remix or remaster.

      Andromahlius, I got the lyrics from Metallica.com and it says "whipping", all other lyrics channels also say so. Flames sort of whip, they flicker and waver. I think fire will begin whipping up, people will be forced to to a "danse macabre", trying to escape in vain, but the world will be consumed by the fire and it will become carbon/soot (blackened).

    The bass is too fucking loud. It doesn't make aesthetic sense in the mix, since the original guitars are already eating up so much of the low frequency end. Their scooped EQ curve can't compete with the volume level needed to make the bass parts standout (since the bass parts are just mirroring the guitars 99% of the time). It makes the guitars sound tiny, and frankly the bass parts, while played like a machine, are fucking boring.
