Interview with Angelo Albani
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: At the moment I'm working on few original projects as well as my new CD due to be out next spring
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Digital, simply because life goes on
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: If you're looking for well done stuff, here I am!
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: I love to work on any original song
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Mac, 2 guitars, 1 keyboard and a microphone
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I started writing songs when I was 12, singing live and in studio for commercials and original tunes at 18. After thousand concerts and million hours recording, this year I will celebrate 30 years in the music business
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Easy
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: I'd like to work with young talents because I think that if someone helped me the right way when I was a young talented singer, my career could have been different
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Be yourself, no matter what people say!
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Rock, pop, country
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Writing and singing
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: My long experience in writing, singing and producing in studios
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: If I have to start working from zero on a new song I first ask to send me a demo complete with lyrics and chords. Then I ask which musical direction the client is going to follow and start to work on the desired path constantly keeping in touch. The same treatment is for those who simply ask for a singer as well.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: My studio is a home studio, but when it comes to record voices I rent an isolated room and a Neumann microphone for best results. I work on all of my productions using Logic Pro X on a Mac, a Fender Telecaster '92 for the electric parts and Taylor 214 for acoustic guitars
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Usually clients send me their songs (with or without lyrics) and I record my voice in the way they want and sometimes it happens to be asked to imitate a certain singer, type of things I'm accustomed to do.
