Aaron Beaumont is a music producer, mixer, and composer based out of Brooklyn, NY, USA! In our conversation Aaron and I go deep on the following:
His background as a composer
Working with the Gregory Brothers
How limitations actually foster creativity
Managing quick turn-around times
Humor and engineering
Mangling songs together by splicing words and creative use of Melodyne
NYC vs LA
Reverb and space creation
Getting bombastic drums
Going back to basics
Breaking out of cycles
The gardener vs. the architect as creative dichotomies and when to use them
And so much more!
