What’s your best advice for creating separation in a mix and space for the vocal. I noticed you have a way of making your music sound extremely 3D.

It’s mostly about contrast between dry and wet elements. I like using effects with spatial info to create depth. For separation, try carving out space with EQ, widen some instruments, and play with reverb and delay. Mix up mono and stereo elements. Just experiment - you’ll find what works to give that 3D feel. Trust your ears.
