#028: MSKT - From Fighter Pilot to Music Producer — Mixing Tips & Melodic Dubstep Insights

How does a U.S. Air Force bomber pilot end up producing
emotional, growly melodic dubstep tracks that rival the pros?


In this episode of Producer Talk with Bass Kleph, we sit down
with MSKT (aka Musket) — an active-duty fighter pilot with a love
for EDM and an obsession with sound design.


He opens up about:
 • Listening to EDM while flying 18-hour missions
 • Starting music production during COVID — then
quitting
 • What finally made things click in his productions
 • The struggles of mixing and layering too many
synths
 • How working with Bass Kleph and Pro Sound Secrets took
his tracks from “decent” to “damn near perfect”
 • His newest track “Into The Dark” — his proudest work yet


Whether you’re just starting out or stuck at the 80% mark on your
tracks, this conversation is packed with insights, inspiration,
and behind-the-scenes lessons from a student who’s now sounding
like a pro.
