When list-making mania leads to a bucket-list experience. My conversation with renowned audio engineer Don Zientara (Inner Ear Studio, Fugazi, Bad Brains) after I spent a weekend recording North Carolina band the Paranoid Style at Inner Ear Studio in Arlington, VA. We discuss what it's like to work at unfamiliar studios, how it feels to hand over the keys to Inner Ear to complete strangers, and the things that cross your mind when crossing the Maryland border (when half your studio is in the trunk of your car). New episode the first Thursday of every month. Contact the show at [email protected].
