Shoegaze mixing is an exercise in controlled chaos: a dozen guitar layers drenched in reverb that must read as one massive texture while the vocal floats inside it — audible, but never dry. Freshly Baked Studios mixes shoegaze and dream pop for maximum immersion without the mud that swallows most self-mixed walls of sound: low-end management keeps the density from collapsing, and careful midrange carving lets each pedal layer contribute instead of stacking into noise. The result is that widescreen, engulfing sound at streaming loudness — heavy as a live show, clear as a record.

The vocal gets its own space carved in the guitar midrange and rides slightly with the density of the arrangement, while sharing reverb spaces with the guitars so it stays inside the wall rather than on top of it.
Almost always — mud is usually low-mid buildup across layers occupying the same octave. High-pass strategy, complementary EQ per layer, and mid-side control restore the size without the smear. Send the stems and you'll hear the difference in the first pass.
