This week, I had the pleasure of recording in Ben Edgar’s studio, overlooking the lush green surroundings of Belgrave. Ben is an incredibly talented guitarist, producer, and engineer with a fascinating approach to music-making—one that embraces challenges, limitations, and the unexpected creativity they bring.
We dive into his collection of guitars and related instruments, discussing how different tools shape his sound and push his playing in new directions. Naturally, we get into some serious sound nerd territory—talking pedals, recording techniques, and the nuances of capturing the right tone.
Beyond the gear talk, Ben shares stories from his experiences recording and touring the world with Gotye and Angus & Julia Stone, working with Dope Lemon, and engineering the latest record for The Cat Empire.
This episode is full of great insights, music wisdom, and good vibes—don’t miss it!
