John and I go wayyyy back. Over the years we both have been music lovers and have even been in a band together at one time. As most of you know I am working in Christian music predominantly and sometimes some Pop sounding stuff. John on the other hand has been working with Metal bands for a long time. So, I thought I'd invite him on the show to share some tips with you that I couldn't provide. Man alive, did he deliver!

In this episode we talk about:

*Recording/Mixing heavy guitars

*Recording/Mixing scream vocals

*Getting Metal drums to set in a mix

*Tape vs Digital

*Adding analogue sound in a digital world

*Deciphering taste terms (Muddy, bright, tinny, piercing, etc.)

Enjoy! If you'd like to reach John here are some links that he has provided:
