Overview: Every track tells a story—but how it sounds determines how it feels. In this special edition of HOW I MIX, acclaimed mix engineer Angelo Carretta will walk attendees through the creative mindset and technical strategies behind one of his most iconic mixes. From session prep to final polish, this session breaks down the pivotal decisions that transform raw recordings into emotionally powerful records. It’s all about workflow, intention, and the choices that give a song its identity in today’s fast-paced music landscape—where loudness, clarity, and vibe must all coexist.
