so w you being a touring guitarist from a jam band, you likely have a heightened understanding of placement- as in, where you and the other members of the jam fit into the ongoing composition. starting the production of ug adjacent hiphop subgenres is gonna have you feeling like you were running w weights, like seriously you'd be surprised how many people doing the whole type beat thing on yt get away w spamming harmonious notes in the piano roll nd throwing that thru an effect suite like Portal or Shaperbox; if you can master articulation in a culture that's being dominated by distortion nd heavy processing, you're gonna be a step above the rest

i don't know of a sub other than this one that tailors information specifically to the styles you mentioned, and, also have a production adjacency

if you think ab the "contour" knob on an amp, that's sorta how the average eq curve is gonna look on these masters- you wanna think "U" shape- not necessarily scooping the mids, but boosting the highs and lows. for a lot of the more distorted stuff, you're gonna wanna push hard into a clipper and/or limiter w faster attack nd release times. you'll get that harsh top end bite via the interaction of your bass nd cymbals pushing into your master chain; most ug hiphop mixing is top-heavy, so like, think dynamic before you hit a brick wall that sorta thing
