Looking forward to this one!😁

Busy work week. I hope that I can make the TW&F...

Leonard Bakenhus

I will be at work unfortunately. Yeah actually read up on him a bit. He achieved quite a lot at a young age. Kind of like some other people we know. 😊 What a talented fellow. Enjoy

This should be an informative and enjoyable chat. I’ll be flying during this one, but I’ll catch the replay for sure!

Martin Koerfgen

He just made a lot of new friends, have fun Ultimates 👍 🙃

Tim Speakman

Looking forward to this one as is an area of great interest to me. Will also be fun to see how they avoid spoilers 😀. One to definitely watch again once the album is released.

Phil Abucay

Man, this is one I really, really wish I could join as I am currently studying recording engineering at school. Have fun, everyone! Learn something on my behalf!

Drew CI

Phil, good on you; I have been there, done that. So, having been an engineer I sure do REALLY wish I could sit in on this one❗ My degree is from the Eastman School of Music, Rochester, NY. I envy Rick❗ Lucky bugger, mixing for TW 😊

Anthony Mitchell.

This should be interesting. I hope not just a teaser though🤣

Dan Thomas

Hi Drew. long time no see. You went to Eastman? I wanted to go there at one time.

Phil Abucay

That's awesome! I'm going to Metalworks Institute in Toronto. Maybe one day, with their Canada connections, The Warning will come to my part of the world to record.

At the time there were not many places offering courses or degrees in Recording Arts & Sciences. Fanshaw College in London was one of VERY few and Eastman. Eastman's was 2 years. Later places started offering 4 yr programs. Broadcast study et al wasn't new, but live & studio music mixing, that was not so wide-spread. Usually it was a matter of being lucky enough to sort of apprentice so to speak. I put in a lot of unpaid time, too hoping for opportunities. It's a tough nut to crack in terms of a career. Studios don't have or need a lot of staff. It's a gig where openings don't come up often. I, too, considered opening my own... unless you're with a successful touring artist, but again a gig like that is lucky & rare. I do miss doing it. And I am still really critical of music, the engineer ear still lingering. I worked studios in Montreal & Morin Heights, DJ/Engineer & Instructor @ Radio McGill, CBC Radio in Toronto, Head Engineer at an 8-Track studio in Toronto and live touring in BC & Alberta. Now I just help Folks with IT 😂 and make heaps of noise about The Warning 🤣

Phil Abucay

Yeah, and with COVID changing everything, who knows if the need for bigger studios will remain. I'm sure a lot of artists are going to learn the production side of things and work from home. My hope is to show my instructors I can do good work, and maybe snag a job or internship from them at their own studios when I graduate. I'm learning a ton, though, and they are also teaching us about parts of the industry other than just music recording. We're getting into audio post production for film, which would be great for me as well since I previously tried to get into film from the picture editing side of things. Also a very tough industry to break into, unfortunately.

Good luck with your endeavours
