The Production Line

• Episode 12 - WHO SHOT SCOTT

  It’s been while between drinks but we’re back for our final episode of the second series. We have the wonderful WHO SHOT SCOTT (Zaidoon ’Zee’ Nasir) in to chat about his production philosophies, creative tips and all things music. Known for self producing all his own music as well as his production for the likes of BLKCITY and Phodiso, WSS is making a name for himself as one to watch (literally stated by Rolling Stone Australia recently). His hard hitting hip-hop infused production and simple approach of getting the most from what you have provides the always timely reminder that it’s not what you've got but how you use it. This is a special one and definitely worth tuning in for. P.S apologies for the audio quality drop near the end due to some Zoom issues!

• Episode 11 - Lee Prebble

  It's our penultimate episode for season 2 and we're chatting with award winning engineer/producer/studio owner Dr. Lee Prebble! He clarifies early on that he isn't actually a doctor just a nickname given for his abilities to fix almost any issue in the studio. Now running the aptly named Surgery Studios in Newtown, Wellington, Lee has worked with a long list of collaborators from likes of  L.A.B, The Black Seeds, The Phoenix Foundation, and many more. Today we have a great chat talking through his early experiences in developing with artists such as Trinity Roots, running a recording studio and finally get a look into his session for 'Miserable Meal' by The Phoenix Foundation. Big thank you to everyone who's been listening with us through season 2, this is a great episode especially for lovers of analog!
