Yo Pauli (in my best fake NJ accent) - how you doing?

Once an engineer achieves a certain skill level, its all about taste, and the best engineers build up reputations for being curators of good taste - the keepers of the keys so to speak. That's why the top guns are in such demand.
Good to have you back
Cheers, Simon
Be fierce in your encouragement, kind in your criticism and try and remember that the art of a good critique is not to make someone else's mix sound like yours...but to help the mixer realize their own vision.
