      Almost all third party fx plugins - different compressors, EQs etc make almost no difference to a mix compared to the stock ones in any major DAW. They're just selling tiny idiosyncrasies from legacy hardware EQs and compressors (which you can get 99% of the way there by setting params differently in a stock plugin) as "essential". You don't need a LA-2A plugin for example. Either your DAW already has one that models it, or you can achieve the same sound with the compressors your DAW has by playing with the params. Any difference wouldn't be visible to the listener (or matter, even if it was). Neither does "oversampling" and other such features have much of a role. Thousands of #1 hits and well respected albums were done with bog standard fx plugins with no oversampling at all.

    I cant remember the word, but there is a concept that Ive heard around Irish traditional music where you cant recapture the same vocal performance twice cause you are singing at a different time and in a different headspace. I think there's alot of power in embracing that fact and bringing something your own to the table.

    I'm as new to music production as people get so this is insanely awesome to watch. I wish I had half your skill! Don't ever apologize for being nerdy because I loved learning about all this. Crazy how when you start putting your own tracks together you start paying attention to all the individual drums and things in the songs you love. I beg of you, please turn this into a recurring series. I need this.

About that intro, i think the producer sampled a song made by odd future called "bitch suck dick" from about 14 seconds into the song. Thank you for this lesson.🤝🏽👏🏽
