Raw Mixes?

So I posted up the songs here before mastering and I sent my material to be mastered by Steve Thomas in Nashville. He really liked the project and wanted to further mix it to bring it to the next level. He remixed one song and it brought the song up 2-3 notches in my opinion. As such, I have decided to have him proceed with further mixing the whole album. I had originally wanted to do something like this but was unable to find the right engineer that could take on the task at the time.

As you may know, I mixed this whole thing at my house (which is something I didn’t want to do – though it saved some $) as I wanted a pair of professional ears working on this. (I may be a “composer” but I’m no mixing pro), so I’m really glad this worked out. That means what I have up now are actually “raw” mixes!  -Matt
