Ho wow I recently discovered David through his amazing Art of Mixing video, from the 90s. It has become a little bit of a bible for me.. So glad to hear him again after 20+ years, can’t wait to hear what he has to say in today’s technological environment.

what a great guest with genuine passion and knowledge, thank you!

He’s a musical Savant 🎼🎶💫

That’s something I’ve definitely learned over time. Less instruments equals more space. I used to create tracks that would have a ton going on and looking back, obviously it was way too much. We have to give space for the artist to do their own thing on.

So cool! He was blessed by The Godfather of Soul himself, James Brown! Wow. Obviously I have to go buy his book, The Art Of Mixing.

Your “Mhmm” every 2 seconds is EXTREMELY annoying. Just let your guest speak, and listen. Then talk only when appropriate
