The Madrid Method

On this episode we welcome multi-platinum mixer Erik Madrid. His
credits as a mixer include Khalid, Kehlani, Roddy Ricch, A$AP
Rocky, Rich Brian, Demi Lovato, Kyle, MAX, Lauv, Jazmine Sullivan
and many others. Erik’s introduction to the music industry was by
chance encounter when he got to intern at the world famous Westlake
Studios. He then went on to be a mix assistant for Manny Marroquin
at Larrabee Studios before going freelance. In this conversation,
we discuss how the pandemic has affected work and what it takes to
build a career as a mixer brick by brick from ambiguity to the
stars. Erik’s transparency and clarity in this discussion can help
young creatives in this industry make better business decisions.
