Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Just focus on the project's goal, that would draw a map that will tell you in which direction you should go to.

A: Lately I'm working a lot with Metal bands, but I really like a lot of different genres and I'm really eager to work with projects that involve more elements.

Q: What's your typical work process?

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: My setup in this last few months has been going smaller and smaller. I mainly now I mix in the box, because I'm living travelling a lot, travelling with my touring band, and also, moving from Argentina to Germany, it makes it difficult to move a whole studio setup but I work in a professional studio to finish my works.

And music production inspirations, I could mention Steven Wilson, Alan Parsons, Jens Bogren, Rick Rubin, Bob Ezrin, George Martin, Chris-Lord Alge and the magnificent Quincy Jones.
