Q: Can you share one music production tip?

A: When two instruments/persons interact by waiting, listening, paying attention to each other, and moving together, they are considered "mixed". "They are not two individuals, but only one made up of two," one would say. Whether they are experienced musicians playing difficult passages or just two kids singing easy notes; the depth of this interaction is the basis of beauty.
