Metallica | Blackened (If it Was Mixed by Steve Harris)

Описание: Metallica | Blackened (If it Was Mixed by Steve Harris)

August 25th 1988 - 33 years ago, wow... AJFA was released and it marked the birth of an album with amazing prog-like songs, complexity and all but basically no bass. And 33 years later people have access to the stems and a new world of possibilities opens up all of a sudden.

This is the last song on AJFA that I needed to remix to try and bring the bass up to a more acceptable volume. Not only that, I also EQ'd with FabFilter Pro Q3 in order to boost the low frequencies of the bass. Since Jason plays with a pick, I wanted to add body to the 50-200Hz range in order to make the song even heavier. I also tweaked fine Q bands to find his harmonics and make those stand out as well, that way both the low end and high-mids are covered.

With the isolated tracks, there are a ton of ways one can mix and tweak these things in order to change how things were placed in the sound spectrum.

To celebrate the 33th anniversary of AJFA, I wanted to have a little fun and pretend Steve Harris mixed Blackened, since Iron Maiden mixes have usually louder bass mixes, which I absolutely love.

The music video features images from a documentary called The Turning Point, directed by Steve Cutts. The original video is right here:
   • The Turning Point  

It gels really well with the lyrics. 'The Turning Point' explores the destruction of the environment, climate change and species extinction from a "humans as endangered-animals" perspective, in order to promote empathy towards innocent wildlife.

Please let me know if you like this mix! :)

Thank you for watching, please consider subscribing, it helps me a lot.

Lyrics:

Blackened
(Hetfield, Ulrich, Newsted)

Blackened is the end
Winter it will send
Throwing all you see
Into obscurity
Death of Mother Earth
Never a rebirth
Evolution's End
Never will it mend
Never
Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Color our world blackened
Blistering of Earth
Terminate its worth
Deadly nicotine
Kills what might have been
Callous frigid chill
Nothing left to kill
Never seen before
Breathing nevermore
Never
Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Color our world blackened
Blackened
Opposition (opposition)
Contradiction (contradiction)
Premonition (premonition)
Compromise
Agitation (agitation)
Violation (violation)
Mutilation (mutilation)
Planet Dies
Darkest color
Blistered Earth
True death of life
Termination (termination)
Expiration (expiration)
Cancellation (cancellation)
Human Race
Expectation (expectation)
Liberation (liberation)
Population (population)
Lay to waste
See our mother
Put to death
See our mother die
Smoldering decay
Take your breath away
Millions of our years
In minutes disappears
Darkening in vain
Decadence remains
All is said and done
Never is the sun
Never
Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Fire
Is the outcome of hypocrisy
Darkest potency
In the exit of humanity
Color our world blackened
Blackened
