Great experience! Channel 29 made my tune come alive better than I could have imagined. They listened, explained, and provided feedback along the way. No lie, I had a tear roll down my face when i first heard the mix. Expectations exceeded! Thankyou so very much

Interview with Channel29

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Just be honest and clear about what you are looking for in the final result, the artist rules!
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Guitar, amp, recording device, drum machine, mic.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: Have been doing this in some shape or form for decades, started playing guitar at 12, various high school punk/post punk/new wave bands, bought a TEAC 144 4 track cassette deck in 1987 and thereafter was "the recording guy" in all of my bands.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Focus on the creative, don't be afraid to be different. If everyone followed the rules, many groundbreaking albums would never have been created.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Over 35 years as a guitarist/songwriter/band member, client of recording studios and also supplier of recording/mixing services. I know a good hook, how to structure a song, and how to keep the energy and spirit of a song intact through the mixing/production process. I bring the perspective of having grown up with classic rock in the 70s, but really came of age musically during the punk and post punk era of the late 70's and early 80s.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Steve Lillywhite, Bill Drummond, David Balfie, Echo and the Bunnymen, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Jesus and Mary Chain, The Cure, The Clash, Simple Minds, Big Country
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Guitar based Rock/Pop generally
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: The Cure. Rob Smith has to be one of my favorite songwriters of all time and the band have created so many different sounds and styles through their career. They never tried to sound like anyone else, they created their own signature style.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: People skills. Getting along with and understanding the artists/bands I am working with and being able to envision the big picture with each song.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Mixing and Production
