Let Your Vocals Rule The Verse [Video]

When it comes to mixing vocals, there’s one thing I try to keep in mind each and every time: the vocals should rule the verses. No matter how many awesome tracks that might have been recorded, when it comes to the verse sections of a song, the vocal should not have to fight with anything else for the listener’s attention. The verse is the best place to introduce the tone, vibe, and lyrical direction of the song so make sure the vocal gets a fair chance at it’s job.
