Track 1: “The Worst Part”

Comprehensive audio engineering from initial production through final mastering. Each track showcases the complete journey: raw elements, rough mixing, refined final mix, and streaming-ready master.I wrote, performed, mixed, mastered, and released this music.

Stage 1: Raw Track

Initial production stage with basic drum programming, unprocessed vocals, and foundational layers. This starting point shows the core musical ideas before any mixing or mastering processing.

Stage 2: Rough Mix

First mixing pass establishing balance, basic panning, and initial EQ. This stage focuses on getting levels right and creating the foundation for the final mix

Stage 3: Final Mix

Polished mix with detailed EQ, compression, reverb staging, and automation. Each element now occupies its own frequency space with proper depth and clarity. Dynamic movement brings the track to life

Stage 4: Final Master

Streaming-ready master optimized for Spotify, Apple Music, and all platforms. Applied multiband compression, limiting, and final EQ tweaks. Balanced loudness while maintaining dynamics and musicality. Professional, radio-ready result

Track 2: “Pretty Lady”

A different genre than “The Worst Part”. The tracks here once again showcase how I built the song from raw through mastering.
