The Art of Studio Communication can be challenging to navigate. One of the most intriguing things about making records is the possibility of collaborating creatively with other people. Bringing different points of view and experiences to the table always enhances and enriches the final result of the project.

Music Production alumnus and freelance writer Carlos Bricio examines some strategies and practices for achieving The Art of Studio Communication.

Mixing Session w/ Haydn Bendall | Angel Two 🎛️⁠

We enjoyed attending another mixing session with Haydn Bendall in Angel Two yesterday! 🧠⁠💡

Throughout the lecture, Haydn talked us through some of his mixing essentials, including how to get the most out of your mixing sessions and how to capture the most honest and sonically authentic sound you can!⁠

The following are three quotes that Haydn said, that stood out to us:⁠

1️⃣ “I try to allow the piece to dictate where the energy lies” ⁠
2️⃣ “The arrangement needs to be clearly defined” ⁠
3️⃣ “The most honest way of approaching something is responding to what the music is suggesting to you”⁠

⁠When talking about what got him into music, Miguel says:

🌟 ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT - ALEX GORDON 🌟

Since graduating from our Advanced Diploma in Audio Post Production for Film and TV, Alex Gordon has continued to freelance as an audio engineer/mixer.

Predominantly working at Electric Studios, Brighton, Alex’s day-to-day routine usually involves recording and mixing bands.

When talking about what film inspired him to study Audio Post Production for Film and TV, Alex says:

"I’ve always loved films and have taken great interest in how they’re made and what goes on behind the scenes.

The sound of The Matrix has always stuck with me. The sound of the mirror going down Neo’s throat when it turns into liquid is pretty amazing, I love the glitchy digital nature of it!"⁠

🌟 ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT - Abigail Adams 🌟⁠

Originally from Florence, Massachusetts (USA), Abigail Adams later moved to London, to join our Music Production & Sound Engineering course. Following her studies, the alumni went on to work with us as our Lead Technician. ⁠

With a love of playing classical and folk violin, Abigail later grew interested in live sound engineering and production. Since graduating, Abigail has worked on huge projects, including arranging and playing strings for YUNGBLUD, working on the Paris Olympic Ceremony and plenty more. ⁠

⁠When talking about what got her into music, Abigail says: "My mom asked me if I wanted to play an instrument when I was young. I told her it had to be the violin - I've been playing music ever since.

Whether it's classical, pop, folk or jazz, music has always been about community, to me. I love nothing more than sitting with a friend/stranger making something that moves us both."
