Interview with Raine

Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Always use the right tool for the job. Analog for 'character' and distortion, digital for unerring precision and fidelity.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My laptop, my headphones, a microphone, and two speakers.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been a musician for 20+ years and a Music Producer/Audio Engineer for 10+. I started as simply a classical pianist before becoming a ghost producer/recording technician and only expanded and deepened my knowledge of everything audio since then.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Analog Synths with Modern Production Value in any and every genre.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Apples have an enzyme that keep your throat fresher for longer. Take frequent breaks, especially if you're doing vocals, stay hydrated, and keep a small stash of apples nearby to keep your vocals sounding crisp and consistent.

A: All types of Electronic Music, Hip Hop, Rap, Pop, Rock, Metal, and Folk.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Music Production, Mixing, and Mastering.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: A strong base in Electronic Music production, deep roots in classical and jazz piano, jazz/metal drums experience, funk bass, and vocals in any gender/delivery.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: - We (the client and I) discuss the project - The work and price are agreed upon - I ask for a security deposit of half the money agreed upon down while we're signing contracts before work starts. - Work begins, and we stay in contact while work is being completed to make sure your vision and my output are as close as they can be. - Clients typically ask for 3 or less major revisions. - The rest of the amount due is owed upon completion of the work as agreed upon by both me and the client
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: My studio monitors are a set of Genelec 8030c speakers and a paired 7040a subwoofer. The DAWs I typically use are Ableton, Reason, REAPER, Pro Tools, and Logic. I have a Solid State Logic Console that I use for Mixing and Mastering work as well as some partial live FX usage. My project studio proudly uses an sE Electronics sE 4400a Multipattern condenser mic as well as an Aston Stealth dynamic microphone for mono recordings. Samson C02 SDC pair or a handheld Tascam stereo recorder for stereo recordings.

A: Porter Robinson, Crywolf, James Blake, K?D, EDEN, Noisia, Jon Bellion, Puppet, Sleep Token, and Golden Features are some of my biggest influences/inspirations right now.
