I've released on Ophelia, Seeking Blue, Heaven Sent, and Enhanced, done official remixes for Seven Lions, Illenium, Jason Ross, and Tritonal, and spent the last six years mentoring dozens of producers through the same journey. The biggest thing I've learned from teaching is that most producers waste years grinding on the wrong things, so I break down the six phases in the order that actually matters.
