I just wanted to thank everyone who makes this web series possible. I just started watching and these talks give me hope. Hope that outside this basement and slamming doors, there's a world full people passionate about music. Music is a shelter for me right now, but one day it will be my home. A thousand times Thank you. It means everything. - Andrew

This is just another great episode. And I mean this with all due respect, but when I watch the ITL's it feels like I'm watching the Bob Ross of audio engineers.

Words cant describe how much I love this show, I can relate so much with the guests that visit and understand the true art behind the music. Mixing is such an amazing art.

Tchad Blake is a total genius, and has remained consistently great since the 80s. Elvis Costello's Brutal Youth sound still inspires me.

Thanks for this. Deeply loved the stuff he did with Froom like the Suzanne Vega album 99.9. Simply amazing sonic tour de force, almost like a halfway point between Sgt Pepper and Einstürzende Neubauten. Amazing.

People need to ask the question: what was it like; your progression towards finding the plugin to use? + Generally what's your initial approach to designing a song.

Tchad said a lot of things like having off days and the whole shooting the shit that I have had my fair share experiences with. Makes me feel good about where I am going. Great episode! Oh and "In The Lair" was weirdly spot on with a problem I am having on a song this week. I may have to try that but what can work without having that UA plugin? I don't have it. What might be some other alternatives?

Great info from Tchad as always, what a cat. Wales is in The UK, not England, and lastly, possibly the most awkward interview I have seen on this channel. I am not sure if Pensado had a hang over or if Tchad was just feeling pissed off.
