We all want people in our professional lives that we can look up to. Ideally one gets to work closely with such a person and develop a long-term working relationship. That person in my life is Jim Abbiss. I was a fan of his work before I ever met him, and when we did meet and started working together it was exactly where I wanted to be. Working on big records, in various countries and studios with someone who I both liked and respected immensely. Most of what I’ve learned has been under his tutelage (whether actively teaching or just being a great example) and I’m very happy and proud that we continue our relationship today.

Jim and I talk on and around quite a few subjects, including mentorship, record production approach, education in record production, and a lot more besides.
