Danton Supple - music producer interview at RAK Studios
What's it like to be a record producer that's worked on so many records with the likes of Coldplay, Suede, Morrisey, Starsailor, Patti Smith, Amy McDonald, Pet Shop Boys...? How do you make so many great records and have people want you back time after time? We met with Danton at RAK Studios (home to many of the biggest acts) where he has based himself in a cool studio that fuses cool interior design with technology to get his views and insight.
Danton uses this new studio space for writing, arranging and pre-production. In many cases, if the studio is appropriate, he books Studio Two at RAK to do the bulk of an album recording session and then brings the session up to his room to continue working on it.
Connected to the RAK network, Danton is able to hook up to the studio and have an assistant in his room busy editing etc while he's working in the tracking space etc. It's a very flexible setup and one great reason to be based at a studio complex - the studio facilities at RAK include a bunch of great tracking spaces with vintage mixing desks and now features a very impressive ATMOS mixing suite.
This is our fifth feature with Danton filmed over 20 years so please check our website for the other 'classic interviews'. George Shilling met with George on a lovely sunny day at RAK to talk about everything you can think of - this is very much an insiders perspective and requires a minimum of one cup of tea/coffee to be ready before watching as it runs nearly an hour - but we hope that you find this depth interesting :-)
A big thanks to Emma at RAK for making us so welcome and a big thanks to George Shilling for taking time out of his schedule to visit Danton.

    That was a wonderful mix of art and science. I don't know anymore if I love the carbon mic or the tube SDCs more! And Ben Andrew's playing was hypnotic. But I must say, for a "standard" piano sound, the pair of DPA mics really impressed me. Could I ask what preamps were used? Because the sound in phenomenal!

    A couple of weeks ago, we visited London and took a day tour to Stonehenge, Bath and the Cotswolds. I knew Solsbury Hill couldn't be far, so I asked our guide and he drove us nearby. Then we looked up Real World and he swung us by there as well. I jumped out for a few roadside photos, and twisted my ankle. Not sure if the public can arrange a tour, but no-matter as it wouldn't have fit my schedule. But glad to have had a quick look. Thanks for the full tour.

    • @RecordProduction
      @RecordProduction Місяць тому

      There's one way to find out - give it a try! Put on some headphones and move the mic around until you get it sounding great. No reason that mic can't work. Let us know how you get on 🙂

    Is there any truth to baking reducing the lifespan of your tape to months?

    • @RecordProduction
      @RecordProduction Місяць тому

      Not expert here so if you have something important best check with an authoritative source however, we know of many cases where a tape has been re-baked over a number of years so therefore don’t expect this process to cause any harm. The temperature isn’t particularly high, the process it to extract moisture over an extended (say a day) period.

    I met Mike when he was at Real World, we spoke a few times, in fact I remember when George came to interview him. I just re-discovered this video, and - like many others who have left us (RIP Steve Albini) - Mike had that soft voice of someone who's been a round a long time, and does not really need to mention what he's done because he's done it. Lucky to have met you Mike, your legacy will live on, thank you for your kindness.

    I worked with Nick. For a few years. To put it politely I'd give him a solid 6/10. No more. Sorry to say it. I'd like to say more ... nothing bad, just professional insights. Just because someone has done some big things doesn't mean they're right for every band. They're certainly not!! Oh I'd love to say more. His attitude didn't always ingratiate him to everyone or being the best out of everyone.. But he was knowledgable. Simon Gogerly however was on another level entirely. Personally we didn't get on. He didn't like me and I didn't like him. But he was, as I said, knowledgable and an OK guy. Best I leave it at that. There's a lot of talk here. But i didn't witness much else. That's just my opinion and making no allegations as to his professionalism or CV whatsoever.
