Jens Bogren, what a legend...

Awesome! Jens is the master of his craft. It’s always lovely recoding with him 🤟🏻

What Jens did with Opeth is pure magic. Thank you, Jens. And OLA!!

dude asked for a hug at the end. what a legend. so wild how many cool bands hes worked with. what a master

Jens is easily my favorite sound-magician when it comes to metal. I learned that by accident when I went through my collection and almost every time I went "Yeah that album sounds amazing, let's see who did that." ,it turned out to be mixed and/or mastered by him or at least in his studio.

Legend. The records he did with Opeth, Paradise Lost and Speticflesh are all time favorites!

What a genuine nice and talented guy! Recorded one of our albums at his first Fascinations Street studio back in the summer of 2006 🙌🏽

The best mixing engineer for Metal and Rock

Machine Messiah and Quadra are huge sounding albums!

Producer with the Death t-shirt. That's awesome. This is what the world needs!

Bogren Digital is kind of my new obsession now, amp sims, IRs, krimh drums, recently bought the 66o6+, it’s all I could want for a high gain tone, and I have tried almost every other amp sim out there, also the talent this guy has in the mix!!!!, thank you Jens

Krimh drums Free is crazy good and we're all lucky to have those sounds for nothing. Thanks Jens.

One of the best metal producers in the industry rn. Absolutly blown away by his work. But his work with SepticFlesh definetly deserves a mention here. On of the best symphonic metal mixes ever made. Powerful, dynamic, huge, clear. Jens is a legend, no doubts

I love what Jens did with Between the Buried and Me "Coma Ecliptic". He added so much clarity to their sound. It was definitely a huge step up from their previous albums (no offense to Jamie King). The mix was so clean and less fatiguing on the ears than previous albums. That was a stand out album for me. And Opeth Ghost Reveries and Watershed. All 3 of these albums are top tier in terms of songwriting and production.

Another great conversation. Friendly and respectful with a 'Chug hug' ending. Thanks.

At War with Reality from At The Gates is the(!) best sounding melodic death metal album ever in my opinion. Also the BDH5169 is one of my favourite ampsims. Awesome interview 🤘

Just did his course on NTM , what a boss. Learned so much, he's really on another level.

That's really nice Ola! Please bring more producers! It would be great a Coffee with Andy Sneap

Lets get Jens to mix the next The Cure album ❤

Jens mixed and mastered an album my old band did in '18. He did a great job. Worth every cent!!!

What a legend. Most of my favourite albums are produced/mixed by him. Awseome interview!

I love it when you let loose to nerd out with living legends

The Bogren digital products are awesome

Just here to say thanks for the AmpKnob plugin, Mr. Bogren 👌

Holy... i just rolled through his Wikipedia. He did some of the best records of the past 10 years. Respect!

Kudos to Jens and his work with Haken's Fauna. Pure audio feast!

Will it HUG? 😄

Jens is the man. Heavy hitter in metal production. His products are fantastic as well. I really enjoyed this. Thanks you two 🤘🤘🤘

Beside having created the most awesome amp sim known to mankind (Ampknob &bassknob) Jens have also mixed and mastered the most awesome album ever Symphony X Iconoclast. Cheers from Vancouver Canada Jens

The "Can we hug?" in the end definetely made my day. 🫶

Hell yeah, Dude! Jens is a champion.

Amazing to hear that Jens listened to bands like Deliverance and Mortification in his teenage years, as I listened to and enjoyed them as well, in addition to bands like the Crucified, Living Sacrifice, Tourniquet, Vengeance, etc. The Amp Knob products are fantastic! I have all of them except for the new Trivium versions, which I will certainly pick up soon 👍

What Jens did with Symphony X, Opeth and Dimmu Borgir is simply amazing. They both make me proud as a swede.

Dude has produced a BUNCH of my favorite albums ever. Legend!

Love the lil bromance moment at the end there.

LEGEND! I love his recordings and his Bogren Digital products!

The greatness of production... Respect!

Gotta love Ola pluggin EZ Drummer with the creator the incredible *KRIMH* drums sitting right beside. Heavy heavy ballz, Ola! 😆

Wow, I can't believe Ola was able to get Jens on here... Katatonia is my favourite band and this guy produced some of their best albums (Great cold distance, night is the new day). Absolute legend, and I also bought his MLC plugin as my first plugin when I made the transfer to digital.

Awesome interview Ola. It's funny I knew all the Christian bands he mentioned and have seen them live as a young teen I was also in that Christian metal scene and later gravitated towards the Goth and Metal scene with Paradise Lost being a huge influence on me. Jens is an amazing producer. 🤘

Similar thing for me with the Christian bands, I'm very familiar with them. Great talk, Ola! Jens is my favorite producer going today.

Niceeee Jens is great! Definitely one of the best producers of all time!!!

been waiting for this one for a while, love all the bogren digital stuff!

Great interview with a perrson! So many wonderful album produced! By the way I think that MLC sub zero is a very valid plugin, it deserves a try.

Easily my favourite metal engineer, a total treat.

Jens with Ola…..double whammy!

"Can we hug?" So sweet!

Love seeing more coffees with Ola again! :3

Amazing, thank you Ola!

This was great! Very natural and informative.

Awesome! One of my favourite "Coffe with Ola" so far. I am always so curious about the education of the people established in the music scene. My question might sound a bit weird, but I wonder if most of the famous metal producers have actually studied sound engineering or learnt it all by themselves. I am studying something completely different from music to have kind of a "job security", but I am also interested in music production. However, I rarely have time to learn all these things by myself next to my studies and my parents would probably not be happy if I would sit at home 24/7 and learn how to mix songs instead of "proper studying" at university if you know what I mean. So I'm curious how producers like Jens could afford to learn these things in their 20ies.Probably he did some side job if he was not actually studying? Much respect for these guys

Loved Jens Interview. He is so full of wisdom and knowledge!

Ola get Dan Swano too

all my fav bands

Great plugins, i just recorded and mixed Avenged sevenfold cover at home, sounds great, thanks Jens! 😊

Jeeez Ola. Jens Bogren, Ihsahn next (as you've already teased), holy cow, great guests!

There is a saying in Finland. "Your fingers come out of your sound". Well, in this case it's a "bit" diffenent. Posted by a poser from Finland with Viva Emptiness as vinyl. So well, I don't know. Good video and thanks for all. Hyvää joulua och god jul.´ E: Love Jens, that's my meaning basically. And Opeth is a true gem ❣

Awesome!!!! Jens is a legend! His products are so valuable for the home studio artist.

love this.... i grew up in same era in South Africa... we were going to tour with Paradise Lost in South Africa in 1996 but they cancelled the tour... long story short we went to Academy Studios in UK to record our album Bloedrivier.,,, why because Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride and Cradle of Filth all used Academy Studios in those daze...... nice to hear again someone form my gen on these subjects

Not only has Jens worked with nearly every one of my favorite bands, but he's worked on my favorite albums by each of them. At War With Reality, War Eternal, Surtr Rising, Ghost Reveries, After (Ihsahn), The Ride Majestic, Atoma, E (Enslaved), Heart Like A Grave, Netherheaven, Under The Red Cloud, and Shades of Sorrow. Anything this man touches has a characteristic that I just get and love. I use his Krimh Drums for my own demos and such and they're absolutely phenomenal!

Currently watching this while I'm noodling on guitar through the AmpKnob Rev C lol. Edit: Crazy to hear Jens talk about Deliverance and Mortification, since I also grew up on those bands. Makes sense he's worked with Extol on the last two releases.

Nice love to see more producers/mixers on for sure in addition to musicians. Jens has done so many great records/bands \m/

You should interview Dan Swano

The two titans, such a treat to watch 🤘

Owwwwwww…this is huge! For sure one of my favorite “Coffee with” 🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻

I never knew one guy produced literally every single on of my favourite metal albums. What an absolute talent!

Watershed and Codex Omega are two of my favorite metal albums because of Jens’ sonic vision.

Jens is a certified legend, this conversation was awesome!

A man of culture. Very nice shirt, sir Jens.

Thank you both!

Awsome, I would also like to see Peter Tagtgren here with you!

Great chat guys, and Great shirt Jens!

Great producer with a great T shirt!

Nice! He made great production and great plugins. I remember me after buying the first IR pack. Anything sounds better with that IRs on it. I made a bunch of presets combining different IR based on names. Resulting in names like "fart in heaven". That was lot of fun. 🤣🤣🤣

Holy moly🔥🔥🔥

Cool interview ❤. Jens taught music production at the media school he mentioned for a short time in the early 2000:s. I was in one of his classes but at the time it really wasn't my thing so I wasn't paying super good attention ... Wish I could go back and slap myself for that 😅. If I recall correctly he had had us listen to, among other, Dream Theater and Spiritual Beggars for inspiration ... Super cool 🤘

jen, godman, bogren !! loves it

Great interview. So interesting and informative. Jens is the man.

As someone who's big into guitar solos and stopped listening to Sepultura after roots (until the Quadra album), telling Andreas Kisser to make his solos better is something that has earned Jens even more of my respect.

Wow ! Jens Bogren ! Super cool ! 20:20 Being in small band and recording all pre prod in my home studio, but we are going in studio for our records, because it's important for a band, for the experience, for having great stuff to use in real life, in real condition. You learn so much that way. So in a bedroom maybe ok, but for a real band I recommend to live this kind of experience.

Mortification!!!! I saw a video of Steve Rowe laying down vocal tracks in the hospital while fighting cancer lol.

Great man! Now get Frederick Nordström for a cofee please!

This was great ! Please have more interviews with producers !! Please!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐COOL⭐⭐⭐⭐

Hell yes, Jens! He’s the man! 💪 The hug at the end haha…New segment idea- “Hugs with Ola”

Amazing! Loved it!! Great interview gents!

Very good interview.

I've come to believe that mixing/mastering/producinig, although three different jobs, are a craft of their own. I struggle so much more with this stuff than composing or writing lyrics etc. As i understand it, mixing and mastering are something you need to learn but then comes production or post producion or whatever you talanted people call it, and here you can be so much more creative, from a background sound of rain, a cricket, a fart, or a volume raise/drop, to bringing whole other instruments in the mix to accenuate a part or even a single metre. You have to come up with these things as you do with your music, imagine the song/track as an experience even more than a story in itself. I should stop rumbling and just say, the producer is actually the unsung hero of the project, the bassist does ok for himself usually xD

Awesome episode! Bergstrand next?

Chimaira covered The Cure's "fascination street" and its one of the best covers of that song i have heard, check it out.

Yes! Jens is so great

I was going to sleep but not anymore. Thanks Ola.

glad to hear stories about Paradise Lost.. Faith Divides Us, Death Unites Us is one of their top albums, the production is stunning.. it was like yesterday when they were posting video reports from Örebro

I need the 3 days long version of this!

what a great interview Ola

Unexpected but AWESOME! :)

Cool T-shirt Jens 😎

Frisking daily? Is that for real? In North America that would be a problem, but you guys are so chill about it.

Que buen video para reflexión y yo creo q esta es una d las fortalezas del canal de César q no solo es aprendizaje tecnico si no para ser mejores a modo integral

How awesome would it be if these two guys co-wrote produced recorded their own album together! I think the world would implode.
