## Resource

Ever struggle to finish tracks because of endless screen time and studio distractions? Host Olivia Mancuso sits down with underground house heavyweight Josh Butler to discuss how strict time limitations actually fuel his creativity. Josh reveals how balancing fatherhood with his DJ career forced him to embrace constraints, proving you can produce a great track in just three hours by stepping away from your phone and protecting your creative flow. They also dive into his hands-on workflow with analog synthesizers, the minimal mixing principles of vintage dub reggae, and the launch of his new vocal-led imprint, MYC Records. For electronic music producers, this conversation is a masterclass in working efficiently and keeping your focus strictly on the music. --------------------------------------------------------- Ready to turn Miami Music Week into more than just parties?
