Hip-hop is a fun genre to mix. There’s lots of focus on the rhythm section, bass and drums. However, vocals are the main focus and are usually compressed and maintained in the front of the song. Most songs are full of warmth and pair well with colorful EQs and warm saturated compressors like in these songs.

A lot of processing was used for the 808, kick drum and snare to ensure they retained the focus throughout the song. After volume automation, the song was mastered through colorful EQs and compressors to industry levels.

To clear out some room for those effects, eq was used to carve frequencies from tracks using unnecessary space while maintaining the instrument’s presence. Because of this and volume automation, the music was able to live in a beautiful, serene environment that emphasized the artist’s emotion. Some 808 tuning was required and was tuned to the key of the song. Mastering afterwards was realized with colorful EQs and silky tape saturation for a stream-ready song.

This track is really playful and was extremely fun to work on. Because the vocals consisted of multiple takes, editing was necessary to create the perfect take, also known as vocal comping.
