  • Ep. 129 - [Random Producer Advice vol. 2]

    We tapped in with our humans on Producer Dojo’s Dojo TV live stream (link in the description) and answered burning questions, like: What are our favorite new production techniques? What’s really important when writing a song? How much sausage fattener is too sausagey? Do you REALLY need that element in your song? Do you need to pull out all your producer tricks in every song? Do you need to get rid of all your imperfections? Do you need to stick to a genre or energy level in your artist project or DJ set? How different do you need to be to stand out and break through the noise? Is figuring out what you don’t want to do as important as knowing what you do want to do? All this and more off the rails discussion on this week’s episode of The Human Music Podcast!

  • Ep. 128 - [How to Use Clipping for Loudness]

    Every electronic producer wants to be able to get their songs loud, but how do we do this? There is a lot of information about this out there, and some of it conflicts. One way that we’ve found to help a lot is using Clippers. On this episode we dive into what clipping is, how to use clipping, why we were told to leave headroom in the mix bus, whether we actually do need to leave headroom, the “skrillex bussing template”, which clipper plugins we use and why, what hard clipping is vs soft clipping, and the clip to zero method.

    Commitment is important to being a music producer, but what does that really mean? We explore commitment from the micro to the maco: committing to your musical phrases, committing to arranging ideas into songs, committing to practicing mixing and mastering on each song, committing to the process of learning as you go, committing to audio from MIDI and when not to, committing to your sound and committing to finishing the song and releasing it.

    Unknown Player is a Seattle-based DJ and promoter who has started quite a few weekly music nights. We discuss how he got into electronic music, how he began to promote music events, the importance of being present and consistent, how promoting lead to getting DJ gigs, being direct when leaving business relationships that don’t work, having the hard conversations in a kind way, starting his own weekly music events, his passion for getting exposure to smaller name artists, how to keep enjoying the work that you’re doing, working at the Any Patch of Grass festival, stepping into music management, and trusting your intuition while moving through the music industry.
