Hey folks, I started producing around a month ago over the winter holidays and I have no idea what I'm doing. I started to put this remix of Not the 1975 together. The drop sounds empty and I'm not sure how to fill it properly. I'm sure there's also a bunch of other stuff wrong with the mix that I don't even know about, but would love if y'all could tear this apart and share any tips for how to improve on this. Have my first show of 2026 in a month from now and would love to be able to rip something like this there, but I know it's not even close to ready.

Hey everyone! My name is Cartinez and I’m a DJ/ Producer from Indiana, but currently living in Minneapolis. I started this projected in 2020 making mega mashup mixes similar to BBM, and then started the production journey in 2023. After a lot of trial and error, I finally started developing my signature sound primarily through bass house. So excited to connect and learn from everyone in here!
