Metal band in a gas station? Dont worry. Be happy! Brok talked about working with Steve Albini and Greg Norman at Electrical Audio, DIY rebuilding his Calrec console, custom Pro Tools headphone mixes, overdubing to cassette tape, and mixing in Atmos.

My guest today is Brok Mende, owner of Friends of Friends Recording, a loft-style studio in Chicago specializing in analog & digital, vintage & modern recording processes, also offering Dolby Atmos mixing and mastering! With over a decade of professional experience alongside some of the largest names in the music industry (Electrical Audio, Audiotree, etc) and within studios all over the US, Brok’s work includes KAINA, Sen Morimoto, NNAMDÏ, serpentwithfeet, Madison McFerrin, and Tasha to name a few and in collaboration with designer/community builder (and partner), DeAnna Doersch. 

In his own words, Brok is a listener by trade who likes to focus on creating something intentional and honest for the artist. He can take apart most anything involving capacitors and/or transformers and is usually able to put it back together correctly, too.

In the show notes, we have a playlist of Brok’s stereo and Atmos mixes. Please check those out. Thank you to Stephen Shirk and Shirk Studio for introducing us!
