Change is one of the few guarantees we have in life.

When I started to get serious with production I spent lots of time trying to learn techniques from YouTube videos, online articles, books, magazines, and pretty much anyone who was open to sharing knowledge. My studio setup evolved so many times during this period as many suggestions and opinions influenced the layout and gear I would get.
Early on there wasn’t much info regarding dance music specifically and most material I came across was information based around traditional recording studios and lots of techniques that were more catered to live recording like bands and such. Most of the gear available at the time was also heavily influenced in these genres so I found myself following trends like the Universal Audio interfaces and native plugins along with the waves plugins at the time. I was also working mostly in Logic Pro back then which I also felt had a very heavy influence outside of dance music even though most producers I knew were using it.

I remember when I first got the stems I was excited and nervous at the same time. I really wanted to try and give my version that same nostalgic vibe I get every time I hear or play one of his tracks. I got to work right away and things just start started to come together. I think the hardest part was trying to take something that already had so much energy and try to give it some more without over doing it. I wanted to keep the originality of the build up from the original and just give it that extra boost while keeping certain parts of the track that really stuck out to me personally.
