We look at how he built his career early on with no connections, and how he curated a solid fanbase to turn his passion for music into a career. On the production side, we discuss DLMT’s writing workflow, looking at how he separates writing from sound design and mixing. He reveals his favorite techniques for drum programming and processing, his approach to curating his own sample library, and how he adds movement to more minimal tracks. DLMT also dissects his mixing workflow, offering advice on crafting a full mix with minimal elements, as well as the single best mixing tip he’s been given. Later on, we discuss the long-term ramifications that the pandemic situation may have on the music industry, especially given the large amount of show cancelations.
