EDM03 - Remixing—Breaking the Illusion
Presenter:Rick Snoman, Altar Recording Studios - Manchester, UK
Remixing now forms the cornerstone of artist and music marketing. Both labels are artists solicit remixers to extend the lifespan of their music and expose it to a different demographic. But there is an illusion that remixing is easy because the remixer is supplied with many of the musical elements from the original but the reality is very different.
In this workshop, we walk through the art of a remix, from the initial decisions of what to keep, how to develop on the original idea, and how to imprint your own identity onto it.
