How I Think About Light Tension
In this episode, I’m again leaning into my professor side to break down one of the most widely used styles in production music: light tension. From tasking and corporate cues to investigative and true crime textures, we’re unpacking the entire light tension spectrum.
Plus, I feature one of my latest hip hop comedy cues, "Cat Gotye Tongue."
