Interview with Bradley Cousins
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I want to be a successful artist in the music industry enjoying every second.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: I mainly produce tracks for my own use because I have an artist Alias. I usually produce Future Bass (Chill Trap), House and Drum&Bass. However I love experimenting with other genres now and again.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Life.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: My studio is in a pretty small room, already it is quite a nice sounding room but I went on to professionally acoustically treat the room to ensure that I could produce the best mixes possible. I have two MacBooks, both running Logic Pro X. My monitor setup consists of a pair of KRK Rokit 6s with a KRK 10s Subwoofer. My main microphone in my studio is the NT1-A, which is a brilliant microphone for recording vocals, it produces a natural sound without reducing any noticeable frequencies. I also use a Blue Snowball for podcasting. I have a 49 Key midi keyboard.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I really love what Noisia are doing, there sound design is immaculate, they really inspire me to experiment with sounds and to not always turn to using presets. Im also a massive fan of San Holo, I love his style and there is elements in his tracks which I've never heard anyone add to their own tracks before.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Production! However, I also Mix and Master.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: I usually work with more electronic based music like House, EDM and Trance. However, I have worked with a lot of different genres in the past such as; Rock, Pop, Jazz and Soundtrack.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: Most people think you need a huge, fancy studio filled with a ton of outboard gear, when in reality you don't. It's about how good the final product sounds, not how many outboard processing units, compressors and limiters the track has gone through. Most of the gear you need is inside your computer DAW. In my case, Logic Pro X.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I will work until your are happy with my service.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: When will you need the master/mix by? How many tracks do you want me to work with and what genres are you expecting me to work with? Have you got any reference tracks for me to refer to when mastering/mixing your track?
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: My dream is to work on a track with Zara Larsson, her voice is perfect.
