In this episode musician Nicholas Burgess, returns to the show. This time, we talk about Nicholas's creative process for remixing our song "Rainy Day Friction" for our EP Lorenzo's Remixes Volume 1. We have a discussion about the techniques Nicholas used and the artistic decisions he made on the track.

This interview was recorded during an Instagram live session, Nicholas shares his method of starting with the original song's stems, selectively retaining parts like the bass, and building upon them with his own musical style. He explains his focus on the song's chorus and how it influenced the structure of the remix, drawing parallels to contemporary pop songwriting methods.

You'll also hear about Nicholas's approach to layering instruments, MIDI synths, and the creative effects he applies to achieve the remix's unique sound. Additionally, Nicholas discusses his vocal contributions to the track and how he balanced them with the original vocals.

Nicholas also has a new album release, "MEJORA MAJORA" that came out in October. He provides a glimpse into the album's production process including physical formats.
