In this episode, What So Not joins the Ableton Podcast to talk about evolving as an artist without losing your audience, producing across multiple genres, building music inside Ableton Live, and staying creative through years of touring. He shares his approach to collaboration, sound design, mixing low end, AI in music, creative burnout, and why taking care of your body is just as important as developing your production skills.
What So Not is an Australian electronic music producer and performer recognized as one of the defining architects behind the rise of cinematic trap and forward-thinking bass music. His production style has helped shape modern music through collaborations with Skrillex, RL Grime, Oliver Tree, Killer Mike, Toto, and Daniel Johns. With over 1.3 billion global streams across records like High You Are, Jaguar, Gemini, and Be Ok Again, he's entering a new chapter with his forthcoming project I SAW A TRAP DJ AND IT CHANGED MY BIO CHEMISTRY.
