Angel Marcloid: Rules Meant to be Followed & Broken

Angel Marcloid is a fearless, genre-melting musician, producer, and mixing/mastering engineer based outside Chicago, IL. She creates under a broad constellation of aliases, with Fire-Toolz as her flagship solo project and No Joy as her most recent collaborative venture. Angel Hair Audio is her full-service audio production studio for artists whose work already leans leftfield or quietly wants to. She draws from a lifetime of listening, learning, and restless experimentation, carrying a huge musical vocabulary that reaches from her formative years immersed in AOR, prog, jazz fusion, and metal to the noise, industrial, grind, post-punk, krautrock, ambient, hardcore, and early-wave emo that shaped her adolescence.Angel’s approach blends traditional technique informed by legendary engineers with contemporary and boundary-pushing production practices. She finds the emotional pressure points of a piece, then uncovers or amplifies what makes it distinctive, and sculpts it to be a worthy vehicle for an impassioned voice that deserves to be heard and felt.IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:Connecting with your communityRespecting the vibe of a songTranslation issues with mixesCreating focus in a mixRules meant to be followed and brokenWhy simplicity isn’t always a good thingCreating width without stereo widenersFocusing on individual instruments vs as a wholeCreating a hierarchy within your mixesTo learn more about Angel Marcloid, visit: https://angelhairaudio.com/Looking for 1-on-1 feedback and training to help you create pro-quality mixes?Check out my coaching program Amplitude and apply to join:https://masteryourmix.com/amplitude/ Want additional help with your music productions?For tips on how to improve your mixes, visit: https://masteryourmix.com/ Download your FREE copy of the Ultimate Mixing Blueprint: https://masteryourmix.com/blueprint/ Get your copy of my Amazon #1 bestselling books:The Recording Mindset: A Step-By-Step Guide to Creating Pro Recordings From Your Home Studio: https://therecordingmindset.com The Mixing Mindset: The Step-By-Step Formula For Creating Professional Rock Mixes From Your Home Studio: https://masteryourmix.com/mixingmindsetbook/ Check out our Sponsors:Download Waves Plugins here: https://waves.alzt.net/EK3G2K Subscribe to the show:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/master-your-mix-podcast/id1240842781 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5V4xtrWSnpA5e9L67QcJej Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/@MasterYourMix Have questions you’d like answered on the show?Send them to [email protected] leave a rating and review:https://masteryourmix.com/review/ Thanks for listening!
