☑️ Key take-aways:

- Bass: often rolling basslines
- Low-End Clean style, very straightforward
- Drum programming very straight forward (not too playful)
- Stab Elements with FM
- Epic Chords, emotive soundscapes
- Very clear simplistic arrangements, good style for festival stages/clubs
- There’s always room for more ear candy or some vocals (good for remixing)
- Synths: simple tip to add movement on a sound by turning an auto-pan into an “lfo”
