Diddy scored a significant partial win in April Lampros's civil suit after a judge dismissed most of her claims—covering alleged rape, battery, and emotional distress from the 1990s—as time-barred by New York's statute of limitations and lacking sufficient factual detail. Additionally, any claims against Bad Boy Records and Sony Music were dropped, narrowing the legal firestorm to focus almost exclusively on Combs himself.What's left is a single active allegation under New York's Gender‑Motivated Violence Protection Law. Lampros claims that in late 2000 or early 2001, Combs physically grabbed her and tried to force himself on her—a moment she says she resisted. With that as the only surviving allegation, both parties are now entering discovery. Diddy's legal team sees the much narrower case as a major strategic win, while Lampros's attorney emphasizes that the remaining claim keeps her pursuit of accountability alive.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Diddy team claims legal win in April Lampros' sexual assault lawsuit

In this episode, we have Benjamin Behrooz, founder and CEO of Branding Los Angeles, a global creative agency. Benjamin shares his unconventional path to entrepreneurship—initially pursuing pharmacy at UCLA before discovering his passion for marketing through an internship at Sony Music. A pivotal layoff landed him at Truthdig, a politically‑focused site akin to the Huffington Post, where he realized his gift for giving a voice to those who can't speak for themselves. A single political cartoon he helped produce ended up in the hands of Egyptian protestors, cementing his belief in the power of authentic storytelling. The firm's culture revolves around empowering its team to make data‑driven decisions, leveraging constant communication and pushing innovative projects such as the world's first in‑store robot shopkeeper.  Benjamin's mantra for growth is to “add three more zeros” to any idea, encouraging bold, expansive thinking. He defines being a CEO as a blend of empathy, vision, and the ability to act as the captain who supports and elevates the crew.  LinkedIn: benjamin-behrooz Website: www.brandinglosangeles.com Check out our CEO Hack Buzz Newsletter–our premium newsletter with hacks and nuggets to level up your organization.

Big reverbs are out, intimacy is in. In this episode of the Mixing Music Podcast, Dee Kei and Lu break down why room reverbs and short reverbs are some of the most underrated tools in modern mixing. From making vocals feel natural to giving drums the depth of a live room, room verbs can glue your mix together without drowning it in washy tails.We also dive into the shift from long Post Malone–style reverbs to today's drier, punchier sound, the plugins we rely on most (Valhalla Vintage Verb, Valhalla Room, UAD Ocean Way, Cooper Time Cube), and why EQing your reverbs is essential for clarity. Beyond the technical, we talk about the unpredictability of the music industry, why labels can't manufacture guaranteed hits, and why the only real “secret sauce” is loving the music enough to keep creating.Topics covered:Why room reverbs make mixes sound natural and aliveHow to add depth without washing out vocals or instrumentsFavorite reverb plugins for vocals, guitars, and drumsWhy EQing reverbs can make or break a mixThe myth of “secret formulas” in hit songsWhy unpredictability makes the industry more fair than it looksWhether you're chasing a more professional sound or just want your mixes to feel more real, this episode will give you both technical takeaways and perspective on what really matters in music.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!⁠SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBE⁠Join the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LU⁠HIRE JAMES⁠Find Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by ⁠Izotope⁠, ⁠Antares (Auto Tune)⁠, Sweetwater, ⁠Plugin Boutique⁠, ⁠Lauten Audio⁠, ⁠Filepass⁠, & ⁠Canva⁠The Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

One of the most remarkable and unusual box sets “Tracks II: The Lost Albums, seven previously-unheard Bruce Springsteen records have been released as a nine LP or seven CD collection. Spanning 83 songs - 74 of which have never been released in any form - Tracks II: The Lost Albums offers an unprecedented look into more than three prolific decades of Springsteen's life and work as an artist.Maggie's guest for this conversation is veteran Rock DJ Rita Wilde who shares her insights into the iconic Mr. Springsteen and this amazing release of his music.Seven previously-unheard Bruce Springsteen records will be released for the first time this summer on the widely-rumored and long-anticipated “Tracks II: The Lost Albums,” coming June 27 via Sony Music. A set spanning 83 songs, "The Lost Albums" fill in rich chapters of Springsteen's expansive career timeline — while offering invaluable insight into his life and work as an artist. “'The Lost Albums' were full records, some of them even to the point of being mixed and not released,” said Springsteen. “I've played this music to myself and often close friends for years now. I'm glad you'll get a chance to finally hear them. I hope you enjoy them.”From the lo-fi exploration of “LA Garage Sessions '83” — serving as a crucial link between “Nebraska” and “Born in the U.S.A.” — to the drum loop and synthesizer sounds of “Streets of Philadelphia Sessions,” “The Lost Albums” offer unprecedented context into 35 prolific years (1983-2018) of Springsteen's songwriting and home recording. “The ability to record at home whenever I wanted allowed me to go into a wide variety of different musical directions,” Springsteen explained. Throughout the set, that sonic experimentation takes the form of film soundtrack work (for a movie that was never made) on “Faithless,” country combos with pedal steel on “Somewhere North of Nashville,” richly-woven border tales on “Inyo” and orchestra-driven, mid-century noir on “Twilight Hours.” Alongside the announcement of “The Lost Albums,” a first look at the collection also arrives today with “Rain In The River” — which comes from the lost album “Perfect World,” and encapsulates that project's arena-ready E Street flavor.We also dedicate our time together to our mutual friend, the iconic Jim Ladd. James William Ladd (January 17, 1948 – December 17, 2023) was an American disc jockey, radio producer and writer. He was one of the last notable remaining freeform rock DJs in United States commercial radio. We LOVE you Jim! ❤️Host Maggie LePique, a radio veteran since the 1980's at NPR in Kansas City Mo. She began her radio career in Los Angeles in the early 1990's and has worked for Pacifica station KPFK Radio in Los Angeles since 1994.Source: https://www.rockgodzhalloffame.com/photos/rita-wilde/Source: https://brucespringsteen.net/news/2025/bruce-springsteens-tracks-ii-the-lost-albums-featuring-7-never-heard-full-length-records/Source: https://www.jimladdrocks.com/Send us a textSupport the show@profileswithmaggielepique@maggielepique

Is analog really better, or is convenience the true king in modern mixing? In this episode of the Mixing Music Podcast, Dee Kei and Lu dive deep into the ongoing debate of analog hardware vs. digital plugins — and reveal why the real competition has never been about sound quality, but about workflow efficiency and convenience.They explore the myths that analog gear automatically makes you a better mixer, the hidden costs and maintenance headaches of vintage units, and how digitally controlled hardware is bridging the gap between tone and practicality. From patch bays and recalls to plugin innovation and offline bounces, this conversation breaks down what actually matters in professional mixing today.Whether you're a gearhead, a plugin-only engineer, or someone stuck between worlds, this episode will help you rethink how you invest your time, money, and energy in the studio.

Is AI going to replace mixers, producers, and engineers? In this episode of the Mixing Music Podcast, Dee Kei and Lu explain why they're not afraid of artificial intelligence — and why you shouldn't be either.They break down how competing on price is the fastest way to kill your career, and why the future belongs to mixers and producers who focus on brand, community, and storytelling. Instead of selling “just music,” you're really selling trust, identity, and an experience — things no AI can replicate.We also talk about:How to build a business model AI can't undercut.Why service, communication, and reliability matter more than ever.What artists like Post Malone actually “sell” (hint: it's not songs).The difference between creation vs. curation in an AI-driven world.Why AI is a tool to support you, not replace you.If you've been worried about the rise of AI in music production, this episode will give you practical strategies and mindset shifts to stay relevant, protect your career, and build a brand that lasts.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!⁠SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBE⁠Join the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LU⁠HIRE JAMES⁠Find Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by ⁠Izotope⁠, ⁠Antares (Auto Tune)⁠, Sweetwater, ⁠Plugin Boutique⁠, ⁠Lauten Audio⁠, ⁠Filepass⁠, & ⁠Canva⁠The Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

In this episode, Dee Kei and Lu dive into the controversial 2025 remix of Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge by My Chemical Romance. While technically cleaner and more modern, the new mixes raise a big question: What happens when you remaster or remix a nostalgic album? Do you risk losing the magic that made it timeless?This is more than just a critique of a remix — it's a deep conversation about emotion vs. clarity, client intent, nostalgia bias, and how sometimes, chasing perfection can kill the very thing people loved in the first place.Whether you're a die-hard fan, a professional engineer, or someone who's been burned by a remix of your favorite record, this episode is for you.

Diddy scored a significant partial win in April Lampros's civil suit after a judge dismissed most of her claims—covering alleged rape, battery, and emotional distress from the 1990s—as time-barred by New York's statute of limitations and lacking sufficient factual detail. Additionally, any claims against Bad Boy Records and Sony Music were dropped, narrowing the legal firestorm to focus almost exclusively on Combs himself.What's left is a single active allegation under New York's Gender‑Motivated Violence Protection Law. Lampros claims that in late 2000 or early 2001, Combs physically grabbed her and tried to force himself on her—a moment she says she resisted. With that as the only surviving allegation, both parties are now entering discovery.

In this no-holds-barred episode, Dee Kei and James dive deep into the toxic myths, vague advice, and ego-driven illusions that still dominate the world of mixing and audio education. From the false promise of "secret sauce" techniques to the cult of gear and performative certainty, they break down why so many mixers cling to superstition — and how it's holding back real growth.They also explore why even elite mixers often give ambiguous or misleading advice, how language shapes misunderstanding, and why certainty is often just a mask for insecurity or marketing.Plus: Japanese philosophy, baseball rituals, self-diagnosed autism, and why Rick Rubin might actually have it all figured out.

In this episode, Dee Kei and Lu dive deep into the sonic and philosophical chaos of mixing hyperpop, sigilkore, and other maximalist genres — where distortion, clipping, and sheer loudness aren't flaws, they're features.From pushing mixes to -2 LUFS to layering clippers at every stage, Dee Kei shares his firsthand experiences mixing records for artists like Odetari and Barelyhuman, and how that work has redefined his approach to both mixing and creativity.But this episode goes beyond technique. It explores the philosophy behind weirdness, the cultural value of outsider genres, and why trying to normalize everything can kill innovation. We talk gear (StandardClip, Cake, Gold Clip), philosophy (Zen, dualism, the Just World Fallacy), and how freedom from expectation leads to better art.

A sus 95 años era una leyenda viviente. Con la sencillez y humildad de los grandes Juanito Márquez nos ha dejado un formidable legado. Con su trayectoria artística de más de seis décadas cubrió de esplendor una franja decisiva en la evolución de la música popular cubana completada luego en su exilio entre España y Estados Unidos. Brilló indistintamente como guitarrista, compositor, arreglista, productor y líder musical. Cualidades que le permitieron moverse fácilmente por diversos formatos orquestales. La visión renovadora de Juanito en lo armónico y melódico fue siempre sorprendente lo mismo en un conjunto, un jazz band o un combo. Hoy comenzamos recordando algunos de los primeros trabajos que, poco a poco, le hicieron ganar prestigio entre sus colegas de la capital cubana mediando los años 50s. Siendo integrante de la veterana orquesta holguinera "Hermanos Avilés", el joven músico hacía los primeros arreglos para la jazz band "Riverside". Colaboración que más tarde le permitió colocar algunas de sus composiciones en el repertorio de la banda. Cuando la primera versión de su bolero "Alma con alma" triunfaba en las victrolas en voz de Tito Gómez, para la etiqueta Puchito, el talentoso músico aún no había decidido trasladarse a La Habana. Juanito Márquez en tiempo de victrola. En 1959 daba el salto definitivo a La Habana. Producción RCA Víctor apoyando a un juvenil Lino Borges. "Corazón en cristal", bolero de Enrique Pessino. Album "Sax Cha Chá", excelente trabajo discográfico del año 1960. Juanito al frente de esta banda con Germán Piferrer como vocalista. Catálogo de la etiqueta independiente Velvet. Sin embargo el Combo fue el formato con que Juanito Márquez definitivamente conquistó a la bohemia habanera de los primeros años 60. Como vocalista el también compositor Pedro Gómez. Preámbulo musical que le permitió sumar a la fiebre de ritmos nuevos de los años 60 la modalidad del "pa'cá". Curiosa fusión de la guaracha con el joropo venezolano. "Arrimate pa cá", fue éxito clave de aquella oleada rítmica donde también destacaron la "pachanga" de Eduardo Davidson, el "mozambique" de Pello el Afrokán y el "dengue" de Pérez Prado. Tiempos radicales en lo sistémico, pero pródigos en lo musical. La pieza que marcó la madurez creativa de Juanito Márquez fue el bolero: "Como un milagro". Omara Portuondo dejó en los discos una maravillosa versión. Juanito Márquez, uno de los grandes de la música popular cubana, falleció el 21 de junio de 2025 en Miami. Había nacido el 4 de julio de 1929 en Holguín. Dos cortes del álbum "Mi tierra" que en 1993 protagonizó la cantante Gloria Estefan, despiden esta breve cápsula. Producción Sony Music a cargo del veterano músico. El recuerdo de Mirtha Medina y Raúl Gómez nos permite regresar al pop rock cubano. En la frontera sonora de los años 60 a los 70 este repertorio, de alguna manera, consiguió neutralizar un poco la grisura de años tiempos. Raúl Gómez, proveniente del mundo del rock después de su paso por "Los Astros" y "Los Bucaneros" y Mirtha Medina quien ya había destacado en las lides del teatro musical, conquistaban el aplauso del público juvenil. Remembranzas del mozambique en la discografia cubana de los últimos años 80 y comienzos de los 90s. Nos vamos con su máximo intérprete y creador: el gran Pello el Afrokán.

While the temptation to load up every fancy compressor and vintage EQ is real, many engineers find freedom, speed, and clarity by stripping things back.

Whether you're chasing speed, cleaner results, or just less plugin fatigue, this one's for you.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!⁠SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBE⁠Join the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LUFind Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by ⁠Izotope⁠, ⁠Antares (Auto Tune)⁠, Sweetwater, ⁠Plugin Boutique⁠, ⁠Lauten Audio⁠, ⁠Filepass⁠, & ⁠Canva⁠The Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

The guys discuss where filters should be used, where they're often abused, and how they use them to sculpt tone, add movement, and guide listener focus.

In this episode of the Mixing Music Podcast, Dee Kei and Lu dive into the tricky subject of saying no to bad recordings. Whether it's a poorly tracked vocal, clashing client expectations, or an unrealistic request to “fix it in the mix,” this conversation is all about navigating those uncomfortable but necessary boundaries. We discuss how to communicate limitations without burning bridges, how to balance personal taste with professional responsibility, and when it's smarter to offer creative solutions rather than force a mix that just isn't working.
