Matt
Wallace - record producer vdeo interview
Matt
produced, engineered & mixed Faith No More's "Angel
Dust" - which was listed in Kerrang magazine as
the Number 1 'Most Influential Album of all Time'!
 Matt
Wallace's career in music started as a musician, playing
and singing original songs in various Bay Area bands. Matt's reputation as a record
producer, recording engineer and mixer sometimes
obscures the fact that he is also a very capable musician
having performed on many of the albums he's produced,
though he rarely seeks credit for such work because
he feels it is part of his role as producer.
Watch our exclusive video interview with Matt Wallace shot at Studios
Deluxe. Claris of StudioExpresso.com asked the questions
and Johnny Jaskot of Babblefish.com directed. This video
is in Real format.
Matt
sang backup vocals on albums by Faith No More, The Replacements,
H20, Sugarcult, Flybanger, Khaleel, and others. He played
drums on The Replacements' "Don't Tell A Soul"
and on Paul Westerberg's "14 Songs". He played
guitar on recordings by John Hiatt, Sheryl Crow, Bic
Runga and numerous others. Matt has played percussion
on many of his productions and even on quite a few of
his mixes for others.
Matt
produced, engineered & mixed Faith No More's "Angel
Dust" - which was listed in Kerrang magazine as
the #1 Most Influential Album of all Time (May 2003).
Although
he never achieved fame as a musician, singer or writer,
the experience gave Matt the understanding to help bands
with arrangements and chord choices as well as occasional
co-writes. All this is to say that, in addition to being
an accomplished engineer and mixer, Matt is a very musical
producer who has a keen ear for songs and arrangements.
