Carl Bahner is a music producer, mixing engineer and problem solver based out of Lancaster, PA, USA! In our second conversation on the podcast Carl talks about mixing C-pop and having the infrastructure set up to succeed doing remote mixing during the pandemic. We go deep on his new venture as a business coach for producers and he shares his approach to finding artists to reach out to and nurturing those relationships. We also talk about specializing within our field and delegating jobs others can do better than you, how to raise your rates, and so much more! Check it out!
