Mixing Memories and Mastering Life with Paul Kimsal
Manage episode 400169974 series 3550511
In this episode, I had the honor of interviewing my podcast producer and mix engineer maestro Paul Kimsal. We talk about his formative years, from the raw energy of local South Florida shows to his leap into head engineering at 17. This episode takes a deep dive into the alchemical world behind the music, where mixtapes were king and a single microphone was all you needed to capture lightning in a bottle with a Tascam four-track in the garage! Paul still recognizes music's power to bond us across eras and places. From a punk rocker to mixing luminary, he understands a tune isn't just notes on a page - it's the soundtrack of our lives.
