ABSTRACT

"Donna Pomini" is a classic example of a mix where one reverb satisfies nearly all the mix reverb needs. There are very few other reverbs in the mix and most of them only appear occasionally. Out of the 59 audio tracks this mix involves, 32 are dedicated to the beat. In addition to the main beat that plays during the main sections, there are also dedicated beat tracks for the lead-in and the straight sections. The compression and the added attack on what was already a powerful kick resulted in a massive sound. But during the first few bars of the production, this made the kick appear completely detached from the sparse and relaxed arrangement. WoodZest is part of the buildup to the first main section and plays for most of the production from that point onward. Splutter appears once, right before the introduction of the lead during the first break.
