🤓 New Blog Post, link in bio ✨ While developing my blossoming business I dug deep into the foundations of who I am and what I do in relation to the industry. The way I work and the perspective from which I view the role of the modern mastering engineer prompted me to write an article/manifesto for my blog.
The majority of discussions about mastering, whether in publications, online tutorials, or in peer discussions, primarily focus on the technical and mathematical aspects—targets, numbers, loudness, industry norms, and the likes. But, mastering is an art and we are artists, right? My intention is to analyze and critique our role in the industry and emphasize the creative and artistic side of our work. ✨

Here's a spotlight on this marvelous debut EP by Montreal's @2baddmtl 💣❤️ A lot of rock bands like to call themselves "raw" and "no-frills" but if we're honest, most fall short of this and just come across as "sloppy".
2Badd however, delivers as promised and then some. These folks show up with humble beauty and a bombing slam dunk every song they play. I LOVE their raw, energetic and absolutely no-frills approach to modern rock. They make it look so easy! Inspired by 90s grunge but showing up with so much more, this is a band to keep your ears out for. If you ever see them on a bill in your town, do yourself a favor and buy a ticket.
For now, find their f***ing amazing 6 track EP, "Music To Burn Your House Down To", on any streaming platform of your choice and turn the f***ing volume UP! 💣💣💣 Was an absolute treat to help them realize their sound for this debut. Cannot wait to see what these beauties come up with next!
Recorded live off the floor by Will at @studiosudouest

🤔💭 a lil bit of philosophy for your Friday... I like this in context to creating... Yes, we can create boundaries or rules to create within, but don't forget to question them regularly 🤓❤️😘
