Inside The Track #43 - TONY MASERATIBORNS - "I DON'T WANT U BACK" Enter the beautiful Studios La Fabrique for another eye-opening series with Tony Maserati! The highly-acclaimed mixer gives you a look under the hood of 'I Don't Want U Back', the melancholic electro-pop single performed by artist BORNS and produced by Tommy English. With his Pro Tools mix session open, Maserati takes you through every element of the project that he feels was all excellently produced.
