NEWS



* Deezer will try a new streaming royalty plan which could pay indie artists more* Some interesting facts about the Shure SM58



GUEST



* Engineer Jesse Ray Ernster



My guest this week is engineer, mixer and composer Jesse Ray Ernster, who grew up in a musical family with both his parents playing in bands and making records. Jesse’s entrance in the music business began at age of 16 touring with several artists as a lead guitarist/vocalist, but he then realized his true calling was being in the studio, creating music from the ground up. 



Jesse originally paid the bills by scoring for TV shows like Ripley’s Believe It Or Not and indie films, but his big break came working for Kanye West. That lead to working on two of Nigerian star Burna Boy’s albums, including the huge global hit African Giant.



During the interview we spoke about learning Pro Tools and engineering from his dad, working in Uganda with Kanye West, the unique workflow for mixing the African Giant album in different countries, and much more.



On the intro I’ll take a look at how Deezer might change streaming royalties for the better of indie artists, and some interesting facts about the Shure SM58.
