Many of us develop terrible habits over the years that become completely automatic.

Whether it's skipping organizational sessions, eating bad, ignoring sound design, or not developing marketing strategies.

Continuous poor habits just lead to stagnant growth and ongoing frustration.

This is why it's so important to be able to develop systems for creating new habits and breaking old ones. Figuring out how your habits form and how you can alter them is a priceless super power.

Great producers are built through great habits!

I recently had a healthy debate with a friend over whether or not artists should be submitting to remix comps.

He landed on the side that artists shouldn't and they are a waste of time. I pushed back quite hard as I just don't see it that way.

Remix comps should be a tool in every producers aresenal.

Whether you win or not, should not necessarily be the goal in mind. Remixing is not easy, it's a skill of it's own. There are many, many terrible remixes that DO NOT do the original justice...

And then there are remixes that are legendary. Remixes that have stood the test of time and still to this day are true classics, arguably bigger than the original. That is what makes remixing so difficult and so unique compared to writing an original.

Think the Skrillex remix of Cinema. How about Illenium's remix of Don't Let Me Down? If I Lose Myself, the Alesso remix, huge track! All arguably better than the originals.

With that in mind, this showcases how important having this tool in your arsenal is.

Check out this episode of the podcast where we dive into the logitisics of remix comps and whether or not you should be submitting to them!
