Hey everyone - I recently was creating a song and got REALLY lucky where the mix just sounded KILLER, better than anything I’d previously pulled together in 15 years of music making. Edit: y’all’s responses have got me particularly inspired today, thank you everyone for your feedback and inputs! Will be replying throughout the day.
