Tchad Blake is one of the most inventive, critically acclaimed, and influential mixers of his generation.
Like many in this series, he's the kind of mixer that other mixers credit as being their favorite mixer! Tchad's mixes are known for sounding incredibly "analog", but he works exclusively in the box.
Why do his mixes sound so fat and so organic using all digital tools? That's what we'll take a look at today.
Here's a link to the Tchad Blake comparison playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4Hsis936dQBmi2VslZ9XPc?si=c5173e642ee546c7

Serban Ghenea is probably the most critically acclaimed pop mixer of this generation. It's not just that he's worked on some of the most streamed releases of all time. It's also that he's the kind of mixer that other mixers credit as being their favorite mixer!
Unfortunately, he's notorious for not doing interviews. But in the few he has given, he and his assistant have been open books as far as revealing exactly what tools they use. And they are all well within reach for the average producer.
So, why do his mixes sound so far above the average? That's what today's livestream is all about. We'll be analyzing Serban's mixes to figure out exactly what make them tick.
Here's a link to the Serban comparison playlist. Odd number tracks are Serban mixes. Even number tracks are another mixer on the same album: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2jG4HMtDuaXJIRINX24Y9w?si=4818cbc8c26b4fc8 -
