#14 – Kanye West, Dirty South Hip Hop, and Engineer/Producer Mike Dean

  • Sharebar

In the 14th episode of Pensado’s Place, Kanye West’s engineer Mike Dean joins Dave and Herb to talk about his career, pioneering the “Dirty South” sound, and working with Kanye west on all of his albums! Dave and Mike then take viewer questions from the chatroom and facebook in “The Corner Office”, followed by this week’s “Batter’s Box”, where Mike answers Dave’s rapid-fire questions regarding the gear he uses. This week’s “Into The Lair” is at the end of the show, and is a continuation from last week’s where Dave gives four distinct examples of how to clear out the middle and get wider mixes!

  6. Dave… love the paint can holding up the monitor in the ITl segments.. my dad is a lifelong painter, I was born with a brush in my hand… you add that to the fun show you produce and that is killer to me. I have a bit of a thought for the show… maybe you could spend a show talking about a complete beginner’s guide to understanding sound. You keep alluding to things that are so helpful like the Haas effect. I am just learning sound for my home recordings… that stuff is gold. Love the show.

  7. At the end of the day, mixing is not manipulation of sound – it’s emotion. – Dave Pensado
