After years of mixing on his trusty SSL console, Jaycen Joshua has gone completely digital. In this new series of videos, the multi-platinum engineer shows off his new digital workflow, taking us inside the mix of C. Tangana’s brand new single.
Written as the anthem of one of the most famous Spanish football clubs, the track is filled with amazing group vocals, explosive percussion and super rich low frequencies that can make stadiums shudder.
In this four-part series, Jacen breaks down the dense arrangement of the song and shows the steps he took to bring the artist’s vision to life. He dives into the inner workings of mixing, offering expert methods of compression, equalization and harmonic saturation. He even shares his signature “low frequency theory” – a new approach that allows him to achieve clarity, power and punch down to the lowest frequencies.
