    uniE603 New For Instagram (Pour Me Another Drink)
    Duration: 3:38 Sample Rate: 44.1kHz Overview: Lo-fi indie track with deliberate tonal contrast — dry vocal lead with reverb-tailed instrumentation. A mix of analog character (likely tape hiss/sample layers) with modern clarity. Mix Highlights: Vocals: Subtle pitch correction (±15 cents range), tape-sim plugin or light noise floor baked into vocal tone. EQ scooped around 250Hz for clarity. Drums: Filtered kick + snare combo, with soft clipping and transient shaping; hats pushed back in stereo field. Keys/Guitar: Reverb bus has shimmer effect (pitch-shifted tail), panned textures used to fill midrange space. FX: Automation on Instagram-related lines, likely filtered delay (~3kHz rolloff) to create call-and-response. Mastering Chain: Emphasis on warm analog tone — exciter used on highs, vintage compressor emulation for light glue, limiter set with -0.2 dB ceiling for safe streaming.…
    uniE603 Cautious With Love
    Duration: 3:55 Sample Rate: 44.1kHz Overview: Track with dynamic tension — tight drum groove, layered harmonies, and focused midrange warmth. More aggressive EQ curve on guitars and drums compared to the opener. Mix Highlights: Vocals: Closer, more compressed (1176-style), with slight de-essing around 6.5kHz. Strong center image. Drums: Tight snare with transient shaping; sidechain compression on synth pad to allow groove to breathe. Bass: Synth bass tucked under kick, mono'd and centered, gentle multiband compression on lows. Automation: Vocal throw delays on final chorus lines, widening stereo synths to build progression. Mastering Chain: Multiband compression on low-mids, stereo imaging narrowed below 100Hz, limiter calibrated to push energy without oversaturating the top-end.…
    uniE603 About Last Night
    Duration: 3:36 Sample Rate: 44.1kHz Overview: An ambient-heavy ballad with a minimalist approach. The vocal chain balances intimacy with presence, using a transparent compressor (likely LA-2A or opto emulation) and a high-shelf boost around 12kHz to add air. Mix Highlights: Vocals: Dual-layered lead + light doubles, mild saturation, EQ cut around 350Hz to remove boxiness. Guitars: Stereo-spread clean tones, subtle modulated delay (1/8D) on send, panned wide. Low-End: Subtle, using filtered kick with a cut at ~400Hz to avoid mid mud. No bass guitar — a choice that lets reverb fill space. Ambience: Lexicon-style reverb on vocal and lead instruments, tails tucked with sidechain against the vocal. Mastering Chain: Gentle compression (1.5:1), dynamic EQ dips on ~3.5kHz (harsh buildup), maximizer hitting ~-0.8 dBTP. music master vocal beat…
