Interview with Scott Drury

  1. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  2. A: My promise to my clients is to always provide a meticulous, dedicated approach to mixing that respects and elevates their artistic vision. I commit to open, clear communication throughout the mixing process, ensuring that their ideas and feedback are integral to the final product. By blending technical precision with creative intuition, I aim to deliver mixes that not only meet industry standards but also resonate emotionally with listeners. Ultimately, my goal is to empower artists by giving their music the clarity, depth, and impact it deserves, helping them connect with their audience on a deeper level.

  3. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  4. A: I bring a meticulous ear and a creative touch to each song, focusing on enhancing its emotional resonance and ensuring its sonic quality translates across all listening environments. My approach combines technical precision with artistic intuition, aiming to elevate the song's dynamics, clarity, and texture without overshadowing the artist's original vision. Through careful attention to detail, innovative sound shaping, and a deep understanding of musical genres, I strive to add depth, warmth, and a polished finish to every track, ultimately creating a more impactful and immersive listening experience for the audience.

  5. Q: What's your typical work process?

  6. A: My typical work process starts with a detailed discussion with the artist to understand their vision and expectations for the project. Following this, I conduct an initial review of the tracks to identify any technical issues and develop a mixing strategy. I then proceed with volume leveling and panning, apply EQ and compression to each track for clarity and balance, and incorporate effects like reverb and delay to enhance depth and space. Throughout this process, I maintain open communication with the artist, sharing updates and revisions to ensure the final mix aligns perfectly with their artistic intent. This collaborative approach ensures a polished, professional result that faithfully represents the artist's vision.

  7. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  8. A: I draw inspiration from a diverse array of musicians and music production professionals, but a few standouts include mixing engineer Chris Lord-Alge for his dynamic and punchy mixes, producer Rick Rubin for his genre-spanning work and ability to distill a song to its emotional core, and Brian Eno for his innovative approaches to soundscapes and ambient music. These figures inspire me not only through their technical expertise and creative output but also through their philosophy towards music production, emphasizing the importance of serving the song, embracing experimentation, and constantly pursuing growth and learning within the ever-evolving landscape of music.

  9. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  10. A: As a mixing engineer, the most common type of work I do for my clients involves taking their raw recordings and transforming them into polished, professional-sounding tracks. This process entails balancing levels, EQing instruments and vocals for clarity and warmth, applying compression and effects to enhance dynamics and space, and ensuring that every element of the mix sits perfectly in the stereo field. My goal is to bring the artist's vision to life, making each song sound its best across all playback systems while retaining the emotional impact and integrity of the original performance.
