Let’s look at how Ghenea has placed each element in the frequency spectrum and in the stereo field.
Too many layers will eventually give you a bloated sound and your mix will suffer.ĭuring the busiest sections of the track, there are about 9 elements playing simultaneously. Perfecting a single sound will often give much better result than adding layer upon layer. Next time you’re sitting in front of a mix with 90 channels, ask yourself if simplifying the arrangement would give you a better result. The track’s arrangement can be broken down into 10 main elements (counting the backing vocals as one). This simplicity helps keep the musical ideas simple to digest which adds to how memorable the track is. These three elements are embellished by the secondary channels that come in and out of the track to add contrast between the sections and to keep the listener engaged. This track is led by the vocals, bass, and kick, which are heard almost constantly throughout the track. Serban and Randy are credited with some of the most successful releases in recent years.īy taking a really close look at how these ‘hit maker’ engineers approached the track we might uncover some ways we can improve our future productions. The track was mastered by Randy Merrill, one of the senior mastering engineers at the highly acclaimed ' Sterling Sound' studios.
I chose this track as it was mixed by Serban Ghenea, who is currently without a doubt the most sought-after mixing engineer in the world. In this blog, I’ll be analysing the track My My My by Troye Sivan.
