Interview with Jacob ''JP99'' Pettersson
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Anything that gets the job done.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Simple but effective. I try to keep all my mixes clean and simple but im always open minded to add any ideas to it ofcourse. I think many Mix Engineer just insert their own ideas instead of the clients.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: I would like to work with
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: To have some planning before starting on your next project. Maybe if it would be a recording senario make sure not to be in a too small space while recording so you dont get the "can" effect in your recording.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Mostly hiphop and R&B but I'm open minded for any Genre.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Listening and understanding critics. Getting the final product done like the client intends it to.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I bring new ears and try to brighten up your mind when I understand that working on your own song can make your own vision perspective blurry sometimes.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I usually get the files from the client and I start right away looking at file for file to see if anything needs some small fixes like clicks or similiar in vocal tracks. I tend to do this a few days before I really start on the Mix.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I try to keep my studio setup minimal and easy since I work with primarily Mixing. Thats why I've choosen to work inside the box with Reaper and many plugins since its easier to recall changes and similiar for clients.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Alex Tumay, Andrew Scheps, Dave Pensado
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I work close with independent artists, sometimes even being the first engineer they ever encounter. Thats why I try my best to always have a open dialogue with the client to make sure the clients vision will be the final product.
