Bob St. John [Pt. 1]: Use the Technology, but Don't Let the Technology Use You

Bob St. John (Engineer / Mixer / Producer) joins Benny, Siobhán, and Cory to discuss Bob's incredible career from taking apart electronics at 6, dropping out of college to open his own studio, and working with some of the most prominent artists out there including our good friends over at Extreme. Bob St. John walks us through his early years filled with music, and some of the defining moments that led him to the doors of producing and recording. We swap Nuno Bettencourt stories, dive into some recording tips, and learn why talent and experience are the first steps when Adults Record. All this and more tune in with us to get 2020'd
