Josh Bowman is a mixing engineer based out of Toronto, ON, Canada! In our conversation, Josh shares his journey; from being a runner at the Warehouse, to taking on various gigs, to finally transitioning into full-time mixing. We go deep on how he was able to leverage a YouTube channel and Instagram to help grow his business and how keeping track of his projects helped him find more artists to work with. We chat about his approach to mixing, mix revisions, loudness and mastering, the technical vs. the emotional elements of a mix, perseverance, work-life balance, and so much more! Check it out!
