Every time I went into the studio some engineer tried to impress me with how they're going to capture my sound with all kinds of tricks. But they limited the sound and never allowed me to play how I felt.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
For me, it's just more satisfying when you follow the rules rather than just make a bunch of sounds. The magic of just making noise in the studio goes away after a while.
The studio part, to me, can be pretty laborious. You're inside for hours on end and can be pretty frustrating to get the sound you hear in your head to come out of those speakers.
I'm always looking to develop my sound and I'm in the studio whenever I have the time to do this. Always looking ahead!
Studio people are idiots. Until they see someone else doing it and make a success of it, they don't open their minds. Most of them are idiots.
It's harder to make real audio than special effects audio.
Being in the studio is like painting, you know, you can really take your time, and try different things, and kind of go deep into it.
In the studio, I'm always throwing people on different instruments.
When you get into a production, there are a lot of things you have to hit to make the show work - like my cues or a cue for another person or making sure you don't mess up the beat, and you can let all of that get in the way.
I just play intuitively and work the same way in the studio. I don't have any magical effects or anything that helps me to get my particular sound.
Studios are designed to pull out all of that beautiful ambience you get from singing in a room, and then the engineer puts it back in digitally or through whatever machinery you've got.
