Callout Quote
“…speaker-shaking bass lines and big-time breakbeats that kept the crowd dancing through every element of his ever-evolving set… glitched out hip-hop, cut-up vocals, reggae twists and all the grime you’d ever need or want on a Saturday night in the city.” ~Duke LaRock, sinninginla.com

I lucked out one day reading EQ magazine and found my solution. Continue reading Production - How to get rid of that whine in the studio…
