    Finished mixing a record that i really don't like at the weekend for a friend. Been listening for 3 weeks to MOR electro pop, some reference tracks for the mixes and nothing else (out of fear perspective would make it more depressing).

    Now going to catch up on 3 weeks of yuekit posts and go back to mixing my band's record i've been on for 5 fucking years...

    In between i've popped out a remix under an anon moniker in 5 hours for an old friend who contacted me out of the blue after 10 years... Slowed it down by 40bpm and added some brass and strings and recorded some bass reminiscent of Will Smith's Wild Wild West at 33rpm. I forgot that even if you end up completely mangling a tune in to something new, pop remixes are so much more fun and so much easier than making my usual pretentious shite :D
