Interview with Aftab Hafeez on Scoring Animation Soundtracks and Producing Rap Instrumentals6/24/2020 Eun Bi Chang of Madina Papel had me on her weekly podcast last week. We talked about the inspiration behind crafting the soundtrack to her animation, and what the upcoming track "Black Water" is about--a track featuring Cybele Fasquelle and Tommy Soulati Shepherd.

Discussing the soundtrack for an upcoming stop-motion called "Madina Papel". We go a little into a song named "Black Water", music featuring Grammy-nominated vocalist Tommy Soulati Shephard of Alphabet Rockers and singer Cybele Fasquelle. A lonely woman, whose husband dies in an air crush, digs a man from the earth and sleeps with him so that she gets the strength to move on. You can now watch my acting debut, along with my soundtrack, sound design, and final mix.

In this tutorial we separate Billie Eilish's Bad Guy into bands to hear patterns in loudness, stereo width, and other mixing techniques. We also visit the myth of having a strictly mono bass. First part in a series where we'll listen to a currently-charting Pop/Electronic/Rap track for these patterns.
Composer and music producer Jin Qin and I collaborated on this energetic track, LUX. Give it a listen here on Spotify:
