Database: Jack Stratton On Hyped-Up Versus Doing Their Little Thing Sounds

“For a while there—and I have to credit a friend with this phrase—we lived under the Rule of the Solo Button, where every instrument sounded lush and big. So you got these really hyped-up sounds—and it’s cool when everything’s hyped up. It’s kind of like the Chipotle burrito, where every element you could just eat with a fork and it’d be pretty good. But sometimes there should be things in a mix that are just doing their little thing.”
