Interview with Javier Figueira

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  2. A: The EP "Madrugada" from Leoparte, which was released on all leading streaming platforms, CD and even on Vinyl. I was next to being the drummer, also the producer/mixer. It was a big project, recording 8 songs with a band consisting of 7/8 players. The result is really nice and I think it's cool to be able to have my first ever "own" Vinyl in my hands.

  3. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  4. A: Keep it simple

  5. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  6. A: Playing, mixing and recording or mastering.

  7. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  8. A: A lot. I really like players like Rex Hardy Jr, Brian Frasier-Moore and Devon Taylor.
