It's really amazing that this man is offering all this information and knowledge in such high quality videos - FOR FREE. We don't pay respects enough to people like you, the online music community wouldn't be the same without you! THANK YOU.

I really like how Michael says "T H I C C". It's so nice how he says it 1:18

Hope everyone reading this reaches their dreams❤ I think all of us are going for the same dream haha, just keep grinding homies

Wow. The saturation really "excited" that beat. It really "transformed" the vibe!

One thing that I realized more acutely after watching Adam Neelys latest video is how little vocabulary we have in English that just describes sound. Almost everything is actually a description of another sense

What I love about your tutorials is that unlike many other similar tutorial series, you don't say "Do this and that to make your mix sounds better" You explain "Do this and that, to understand the tools at your disposal, so you know how to make your mix sound better"

Thanks for this - really helpful introduction to saturation!

As a genuine enthusiast, I feel the beauty of this channel and Michael's skill as a producer/engineer/teacher is that I can keep coming back to quality content and keep learning. I often refer back to many older videos for reset and recap. His professionalism, integrity and consistency is what is equally impressive. I have not found that content from much older videos is in any way contradictory - all the keys basics are the same. Superb channel, and head and shoulders about other similar content providers IMHO.

I seriously cannot thank you enough for making these, Michael. You are seriously my hero man you're so wise and full of encouraging, positive energy. God bless ya fam, forreal <3

Thank you for everything bro, and to the person reading this, I hope you have a nice day :)

I remember watching this video a few years back. I'm rewatching it again today. Your videos are amazing because regardless of the level you're at, you'll always take away so much. This is hands down the best youtube channel on educating yourself in mixing, ever.
