Mixing live performance recordings for nearly 30 years, with Elton John, Billie Eilish, Bad Bunny, Neil Finn, Jason Mraz, Skepta, Kacey Musgraves etc.
Since 1982 I’ve been recording and mixing music in studios all over the world (Prefab Sprout, Tina Turner, Howard Jones, Bad Company, Foreigner, Killing Joke, Skunk Anansie, Heather Nova etc). I mixed a live album for Levellers in 1996 and really enjoyed the excitement and energy of mixing a live recording. Since about 2004 I’ve worked closely with iTunes/Apple Music on many of their live studio projects. The ‘Up Next’ series with Billy Eilish, Kacey Musgraves, Khalid, Bad Bunny, Neil Finn, Daniel Caesar, Sigrid etc. Many one-off full production shows with Jason Mraz, Skepta, Labrinth, Little Mix, The 1975 etc. and the Apple Music Live series, with Wizkid, HH50 and the NYE 2023 set, all in Atmos.
I’ve also worked extensively with Live Nation Studios, Amex, Jimmy Kimmel and Yahoo producing live concert content for all manner of artistes, from Elvis Costello to Sia, Adele, Sheryl Crow, Kenny Chesney, Imagine Dragons etc.
All that said, and as much fun as it is, live concert mixing is not the end of it. I really enjoy mixing any music that’s been captured as a mostly live take, be it in a studio or an arena. There’s something special about people playing together that makes the music come alive, creates an excitement, tension and enjoyment
that really transcends genres. Whatever the music is, it’s exiting live.
