I would think it worth a try mixing in a bit of crowd for a live feel but I also think it needs lots more "volume" esp. Bass so it hits your edits on strong beats. eg. The dance action needs something strong to work the hits with the beats. The drums look like they are being hit hard but it doesnt sound like it.
Yep, I agree the mix needs more balls, but the song was already mastered when we shot it. (Maybe we just made the video more rock-n-roll then the song) These guys are easy to work with, but they definitely control their music so i doubt they'll change the mix or let me fiddle with EQ. I could get a little more volume on the whole track, and maybe some crowd noise, but they are paying clients sooo, you know how that goes.
