this is a blog post from the weekend in the boonies mixing my new record...although it sounds like I might be falling for producer ross murray i think it is just distracted thoughts after listening to one cut of music way too many times!! (written late saturday night sometime)

--------------------------

The relationship between producer and engineer is like that of lovers. You never really know what goes on behind closed doors of others. What are they really doing…whos leading…who makes decisions etc.

The engineer is a navel gazer, always looking at details where the producer must keep track of time, vibe, bigger picture etc.

It seems like each time I work on a record these things become a little clearer for me.
