"There is _no_ theory. You have only to listen. Pleasure is the law. I love music passionately. And because l love it, I try to free it from barren traditions that stifle it. It is a free art gushing forth, an open-air art boundless as the elements, the wind, the sky, the sea. It must never be shut in and become an academic art."
Claude Debussy

Tip # 4 Headroom is more important
than Loudness
Making your tracks "as hot as possible" is an analog throwback that no longer
applies to digital. Recording at 24 bit, you'll get a better sound, and
a better mix, if you give yourself a generous cushion between your signal and
0db on the meters.

Tip # 5 Bass Kills
Many tracks have unneeded bass which when summed together can destroy
your mix. Get rid of as much unnecessary bass as you can on
every track
