It's been 10 years since I bought my first keyboard and started making/mixing music. I almost can't believe how fast the time has gone. Hopefully, this puts you a bit further ahead on your mixing/production journey!
In this video, I share 7 big mistakes I've made or lessons I've learned in 9 minutes.

I just released a new production/mixing plugin (December 2025): youtu.be/wi6z7D4r7nc?si=dCxWD2LDNYsP-ZRy
