Before the ENCORE #13 | Richard Dowling

*Return of The Mack by Mark Morrison plays intensely*

Sonic Architect Adam here, in your feeds on a FRIDAY of all days! Why, I hear you ask? Well, unfortunately due to circumstances outside of all at NO ENCORE HQ's control, Dave and Craig have been unable to record this week. All is ok, don't worry, but in their place this week I've moved up my return to Before The ENCORE by a couple of days. Things will be back to normal next week, all going well!

This episode spans borders. Well, county borders that is.

For this month's recording, I got in my car and travelled to Limerick City, The 061 itself, to visit mastering engineer Richard Dowling. Richard's work spans decades and his client base is worldwide. His discography boasts some genuinely iconic songs, of which you will definitely know many. Don't believe me? See for yourself here.

We sat down in his studio to discuss the whens, wheres, whys and everything else of what is still broadly considered a mysterious but entirely essential part of the music creation process. If you'd like to learn more about Richard, you can find all the info you need and more on wavmastering.com.

Chat next month!
