I made an ambient mix for my wedding reception dinner this weekend. I dialed back the noise and weirdness on this one ... cause of family ;)
I'm not sure how many mixes I'll be able to do for the next month or two, since I will be in Europe for the first couple weeks in early August for our honeymoon. Thank you for your patience!
