Nearfield Reflections 007
This week we have @stephen_kerrison from @permanent_collection_studio for our 7th Nearfield Reflections instalment.
Here, Stephen talks about his love for mastering collaboratively, working together in one space with the artist when mastering. The joy of working below a record shop and seeing your masters appear on the shelves and how mastering is such an important part of making a great sounding record!

Have you watched our latest feature with the team at Permanent Collection Studios?
We talk with production and mastering pair Paul and Stephen about the perks of sharing a studio, how to know when your track is finished and how @rme_audio interfaces have helped them create setups to suit their individual needs.

“Listen to music. All the time.”
The full interview with Mastering Engineer Stephen Kerrison and Producer & Mix Engineer Paul Rafferty is live over on our website, with plenty of extra chat that didn’t make our video (which you should obviously watch too).
Alongside everything we covered on our YouTube channel, we got a full breakdown of the mastering process, a closer look at some of Permanent Collection’s weird and wonderful sound toys, and a deeper dive into the RME gear they rely on for every session.

Another beautiful post day! So stoked to finally get to hear @gards_annie ’s outrageously great second solo album ‘Sleeping Dogs’ on sweet wax. I love Annie’s music so much and have done for so long, so be trusted with the mastering of this stunning album was a proper honour.
What a beautiful thing to be handed the amazing new @thelastvinci record from the postie! It was a real honour to have mastered this album, it’s a record that I know was tough to make and you can hear every bit of passion and determination that went into it pouring out of every riff. Incredibly mixed as always by the wonderful @tompeters_producer , released via @narrowdoorrecords .
All of these amazing albums, eps and singles were released in April, and they were all mastered by me here at @permanent_collection_studio . What a time to be a fan of properly ace new music made by properly lovely people.
Really stoked to have worked with these amazing artists who are part of the @northernmusicexport@_launchpadmusic showcase at @greatescapefest next month!
I’m dead proud to work with so many artists from the North and am based in Liverpool myself so it’s awesome to see such strong representation from this part of the country.
Big love @lifeband , @itsloismusic@breezeisaband and all the brilliant artists representing!
UPDATE: Spring / Summer Availability
It’s been a fantastic first part of the year, I’ve been super busy on some absolutely incredible music recently, so thank you, the world will be a better place for its existence.
I have limited availability for mastering in May, and I’m opening up my books for June and July this week, so get in touch via DM or website to get the ball rolling if you want to to work together on finishing up your music!
Nice one ya beauties! X
