Special Guest: Grammy Award-Nominated Producer/Engineer Paul Fig
2h 5m · PublishedThis week, we speak to Grammy Award-nominated producer/engineer Paul Fig about how he works and develops his craft. We also discuss the rich history behind his studio, www.davesroom.net, in Southern California.
While working at world-famous Sound City Studios, Fig had the opportunity to practice every aspect of his trade, working with such luminaries as Joe Barresi, Matt Hyde, Don Smith, Matt Wallace, David Bianco, George Drakoulias and Greg Fidelman. During that time he worked on albums by Ry Cooder, Robert Cray, and the legendary Johnny Cash.
Fig has since put his stamp on records by Deftones, Coheed and Cambria, Trivium, and the critically acclaimed Ghost B.C’s 2013 album, Infestissumam. In 2014, he received a Grammy Nomination in the category of Best Engineered Album Non Classical for Alice in Chains “The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here”. Most recently, he Co-Produced and engineered Jerry Cantrell’s new solo effort “Brighten” which was released October 29, 2021.
Despite working all hours in the studio, Fig also finds time to compose and record music for television and film, including the HBO Docu-series “Sonic Highways”, The Motion Picture “The Collection”, Fox Sports, and MTV.

Getting Unstuck
1h 41m · PublishedWe all get stuck eventually -- stuck in our jobs, creative projects, or lives. We may face obstacles of finance, emotion, time, or personality. Sometimes we do not even know the cause.
Getting unstuck starts with actually knowing when you're stuck and then telling the truth about it. Often, we don't know what the next step could or should be. Even if we do know the next step, our willingness to take action may have just evaporated.
We discuss our experiences being of being stuck -- its many flavors and textures, and how we moved beyond it...or did not!

Excerpt from "The Spirit of Radio" by Rush, lyrics written by Neil Peart:
All this machinery making modern music
Can still be open-hearted
Not so coldly charted, it's really just a question of your honesty
Yeah, your honesty
One likes to believe in the freedom of music
But glittering prizes and endless compromises
Shatter the illusion of integrity, yeah
