The segment about atmospheres prompted a question I was thinking about last week: For atmospheric or sweetener sounds that get a reverb tail, do you ever mix the dry signal extremely low, to the point where the atmos sound you're hearing is almost entirely via the reverb? I've historically placed nearly everything, including subtle atmospheres, somewhat up-front in the mix, EQing them around the key elements; but lately I've wondered if there are instances where it's more appropriate to push most of the signal into the reverb aux, with very little dry signal remaining. Curious if that's an approach you occasionally (or usually) take.

It’s all down to personal taste, there is technically no wrong or right answer. Some artists push the kick upfront and others hold it back a bit more. Similar to classic trance. That is all about the percussion. If it sounds good generally it is good 😎 trust the old ears. Also……Always use a reference track of the sound you want to achieve too
