Having a GAS with...Shawn Everett

Monday Aug 22, 2022

Today, I'm having a GAS with Shawn Everett, a six-time Grammy Award-winning producer and mix engineer.

I genuinely believe that Shawn is one of the architects of the sound of pop music between 2010 and 2020. Not that his career ends in 2020, just to say that the huge, deep, wide and saturated sound of that decade is certainly exemplified by his productions.

After graduating high school, Everett was accepted as a Work-Study participant in the Audio program in Music & Sound at The Banff Centre, Alberta. He took the opportunity to immerse himself in unconventional audio practices over the following four years, experimenting in the campus studios and working on sonic installations.

Everett relocated to Los Angeles in 2005 and expanded his industry network through producer Eric Valentine. He began engineering for producer Tony Berg, former A&R executive for Geffen Records and Virgin Music.

Hailed in 2017 by Pitchfork as “indie rock's new go-to sound engineer”, Shawn Everett has infused his creative flair into records by a multitude of renowned artists including Weezer, John Legend, Phantom Planet, Blake Mills, Perfume Genius, Haim, Warpaint, Grizzly Bear, The Killers, and Beck.

Today I'm having a GAS with John Paterno, a Grammy-winning music producer, mixer, composer, engineer, mastering engineer, and musician.

Dubbed ‘Mr Meticulous’ by industry writer Mr. Bonzai, Paterno is known for his attention to detail while at the same time allowing artists to feel uninhibited in their creativity.

John moved to Los Angeles two weeks after graduation from the University of Miami MUE [Music Engineering] program. A short period of freelance assisting concluded with a staff position at Sunset Sound/Sound Factory in Hollywood, where for five years he was exposed to many great engineers, producers, and artists.

After breaking out of assisting, John worked with a wide range of producers including Mitchell Froom, Joe Chiccarelli, Byron Gallimore, Celso Valli, and Stephen Duffy. He won a Latin Grammy for his work with artist/producer Soraya. John has produced or co-produced projects for Gov’t Mule, Michael Landau, Caleb Henry, Andrew Synowiec, The Black Mollys, Mitchell Froom, Lustra, Robbie Williams, The Lilac Time, and many other artists. He has also co-written songs with artists and has written pieces for TV and film.

Having a GAS with...Jason Spencer, Business Development Director at ITV

Wednesday Dec 15, 2021

Today, I'm having a GAS with Jason Spencer, ITV's head of business development. In a nutshell, Jason is responsible for selling ITV's advertising space. There were two big areas I wanted to discuss with Jason:

1) The viability of TV advertising in an age where more and more users are switching to on-demand providers like Netflix, Disney+ and Prime;

2) How the sausage gets made on broadcast TV and how the commercial revenue actually pays for the production of content.
