We always did our own mixing.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've always had a fascination about mixing music.
Back in the day, I used to watch 'The Cajun Chef' with Justin Wilson. His mixing would go one way, and his stomach would go the other.
When it came to the music that we produced, I am pretty happy with what we did.
When a piece is done, I mix it before going on to any other piece.
We sat around and I fed them barbecue and whiskey. And pretty soon everyone started to compete with each other on the guitars. It seemed the more everyone drank and ate, the more everyone got into it.
Creating sounds together with other musicians is something I've always liked doing.
We were like psychedelic folk combined with Sonic Youth's noise.
One time I introduced my orchestra as the Shampoo Music Makers instead of the Champagne Music Makers.
I always believed in the music we did and that's why it was uncompromising.
I remember that I used to mix with my friends who had brothers and sisters. I was an only child.
