In this episode John returns to Mr. Dan’s studio in Streatham to talk with Kate Tempest and Dan Carey. Looking back over a track from each album they’ve recorded together, Kate & Dan detail the creative journey they’ve been on since first meeting, and shine a light on the methods and techniques they use collaborating in the studio. We hear how the duo embraced teaming up with legendary producer Rick Rubin, why having a hangover isn’t necessarily a bad idea before a big day of recording, and why Dan is the ultimate sonic evil genius. Tracks discussed: Marshall Law, We Die, I Trap YouLINKS TO EVERYTHING TAPE NOTES https://linktr.ee/tapenotes  Listen to 'The Book of Traps and Lessons' here.'The Book of Traps and Lessons' - Republic Records, American Recordings, UMG Recordings, Inc.Intro Music - Sunshine Buddy, Laurel Collective  GEAR MENTIONSBrauner VM1Buchla Music Easel Swarmatron Metasonix Drum MachineNeumann U47Neumann U67Neumann U87Roland CR-8000Sequential Prophet 6Shure SM7BTelefunken MicLogicAbleton OUR GEARhttps://linktr.ee/tapenotes_ourgear  KEEP UP TO DATEFor behind the scenes photos and the latest updates, make sure to follow us on: Instagram: @tapenotes Twitter: @tapenotes Facebook: @tapenotespodcast  YouTube: Tape Notes PodcastDiscord: Tape NotesTo let us know the artists you’d like to hear, Tweet us, slide into our DMs, send us an email or even a letter.
