To celebrate Labor Day, we’re giving you FREE access to an incredible production deep-dive with the duo ‘You’re Not My Dad’—featuring bassist Jackson Eppley and guitarist/engineer Ryan Truso.
They take you inside their modern Country track “Day Drunk In Reno” with a full walkthrough of how they wrote, arranged, tracked, and mixed it. Watch them lay down live bass and pedal steel guitar, explain how they create complementary textures, and share their complete mixing approach to achieve a punchy, open, and natural sound.
What you’ll learn:
- Song production workflow: how to create parts, arrangement, and textures that elevate a track.
- Recording techniques: drums, organ, guitars, bass, and pedal steel signal chains and mic choices.
- Mixing breakdown: EQ, compression, parallel compression, saturation, transient design, delay, reverb, limiting, and master bus treatment.
- Editing & comping: how to pick the best takes to keep a song moving and dynamic.
- Industry insight: working with artists, A&Rs, and labels while maintaining balance and vision.
- Bass wisdom: hear the unique characteristics of P-Bass, Univox, and Jazz Bass, plus tips on groove, playing techniques, practice, and client relations.
Bonus: Multitracks Included
You’ll also get the full multitrack session to study, remix, and even use on your résumé to attract new clients to your studio.
This is our free Labor Day gift to you—enjoy, learn, and keep making music!
Labor Day is a celebration of the people whose hard work, creativity, and dedication build the communities we live in. It’s a reminder that behind every achievement—whether in music, art, industry, or daily life—there’s a network of individuals working together, each contribution shaping the whole. More than just a holiday, it’s about honouring that shared effort, pausing to reflect on what we accomplish collectively, and appreciating the sense of community that comes from supporting one another in our passions and pursuits.
