Rediscovering the Fun of Mixing: Gear, Growth, and Getting Curious Again
Episode 371
Tuesday, 28 April, 2026
In Episode 371 of the Mixing Music Podcast, Dee Kei and Lu have a more relaxed, reflective conversation about life, creativity, and staying inspired in audio. Dee Kei talks about moving through different phases as an engineer, from early excitement, to getting lost in technical details, to eventually trying to reconnect the emotional side of music with a deeper technical curiosity.They discuss gear research, learning from other engineers, Atmos and surround mixing, studio upgrades, creative plateaus, and the desire to fall back in love with mixing after feeling stuck. The conversation also opens up into fatherhood, having a third child, balancing family with a creative career, contentment versus complacency, and why responsibility can sometimes create more purpose instead of limiting ambition.This episode is part audio reflection, part life update, and part creative reset for anyone trying to stay curious, authentic, and motivated in a long-term music career.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBEJoin the ‘Mixing Music Podcast’ Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LUHIRE JAMESFind Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by Izotope, Antares (Auto Tune), Sweetwater, Plugin Boutique, Lauten Audio, Filepass, & CanvaThe Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.
