Deciding to reduce breaths in a rap mix depends on style, vibe, and preference:
- Keep Breaths: Adds authenticity, enhances rhythm, suits raw, emotional tracks.
- Reduce Breaths: Creates a polished sound, balances the mix, suits commercial styles.
- Context: High-energy tracks may need fewer breaths, while introspective ones benefit from keeping them.
- Tips: Lower volume subtly, stay consistent, and use automation or de-essing.
It’s a creative choice aligned with the artist’s vision and the track’s goals.
