Nilz @ The Exchange

[davethedrummer]

The Exchange is one of the few mastering places still going i think
but I've no idea if Nilz is still working there
I had something cut by him once
A Hydraulix record, just one side cos me and Lawrie over-baked it
this was very early on in Lawries cutting career and he'd just got a new compressor so...

he did a great job, didn't touch the mix actually,
something I'm very proud of.
a spot of bass I seem to remember.
Took about 15 minutes.

on the subject of mastering
it seems to be an increasingly important thing now in the MP3 world
I know it's nothing new really , but the quality of MP3s has shot up recently i.m.o
and that seems to synchronize with the advent (pun) of new digital mastering studios.
I'm thinking about it for the next Mutate release
A pair of fresh ears on your work is always a good thing.
perhaps with the exception of your grandparents.

maybe McCormack , or Robert Liener or Heckman maybe ?
anyone know any others ? ( good ones with a track record )
