hanging out with audiophiles

A Deep and Tech heavy dive into the Knowledge pool that is Darrell Thorp! He's a multi grammy kind of dude and yet there's no pretense. He has worked with some of the best in the biz like Radiohead, Paul McCartney, Beck, Outkast and more! yep. Mad audiophilatiousness hangs. We chat about his time with Dr Dre and all the red lights on the board. The good the bad n zee ugly in gear and signal. Foo fighters and a great deal more! I also nitty the gritty out of the Altec 9067b filter. The fabled King Tubby filter is now my grubbies and I throw some bits into it to hear how it sounds. ALSO I made a couple of patches for you ableton live users to check so you can get a taste of the altec in the digital domain! https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7dzrttyja7o3yp8/AACoi5vvjFJhqPWUXtyg2cSFa?dl=0 follow the read me and you should be golden! I posted a quick vid of it on the hangingoutwithaudiophiles instagram to show it in action :) Cheers friends Jamie

Amazing times that we can find and talk to our heroes! Here's Susan Rogers and she's responsible for making the best prince records (imho) the BEST ones. I mean the VERY best ones. She was by his side and in the studio at all times.. day and night. The 4 year tour of duty was time well spent. I owe her a huge debt of gratitude. Without her energy, Prince would have not been able to create and share his ideas in the same way. I'd have Never heard the music in the same way over the Atlantic. I'm THRILLED to share this one with you all. She's a wonder! Thanks to Universal Audio once again for their kind support.. Let's get on with the show! Uptown!

YES! Money Mark is in the hot chair. Quite literally as Ahmed Gallab had only just finished our chat. 2017, Turin.. we delve into the many minds of Mark. The kind of mind that will take things apart and rebuild them. The kind of mind that is not content to settle. He's a very curious and unique fellow who's got WAY too many good stories for a solitary podcast but there you go.. this is PART 1!! I get gritty with a cheap contact mic and probe the strings of pianos and tenor guitars before destroying the signals with plugins. Thanks again to the good folks at UNIVERSAL AUDIO www.uaudio.com for their excellent support and to all you lovely lot for your ears n brains. cast away! Money Mark's fantastic machine link!! www.Frankolodeon.com
