Happy to share a mix and mastering project I worked on earlier this month by the folk/hip hop act, Jargon Jams with a feature from Ruzi.
Due to COVID, professional recording facilities were inaccessible so all of the instrumentation and vocals were recorded at home and the drum track was a single lofi sample, which lacked definition and clarity.
The track had all the vibe but needed to punch and be given a polish to bring it to life, which is where I stepped in.
By layering the drums with a few key hits and applying the right processing, I was able to take a home recording and turn it into a track that both artists were very happy to share with the world and that has received support from @rudireel on Delite Radio
The Balance is now available to stream on all platforms! Link in bio.
Get in touch if you have a project that you believe in but needs a professional mix.
GOTTA BE: a collaboration between two very talented artists stretching over two continents. Mumbai’s @sickflipofficial brings the infectious rhythm with Manchester’s @mcrchunky giving the track a voice, with his tight flow that gets your head nodding and body moving.
When the vocals came in to be mixed, there was a lot of noise and masking by the different layers. We went in, cleaned them up and then created the separation needed to make sure everything had its space in the mix. As it’s a dance track, it was important that the vocals stood out and moved with the beat.
We also mastered the track and one of the first moves made was to level the bass to get those speakers moving. Surgical eqing, light compression and few magic tools helped shape and level the whole track, ready to share with the world!
With support from Mary Anne Hobbs on 6 music, this one is primed to kick down some doors.
