EP. 76 - Kyle Black Goes Around The World And Back With State Champs

This week on The Record Process, we’re joined by California-based producer, mixer, songwriter and engineer Kyle Black. Through his career, Kyle has produced, mixed and recorded songs on acclaimed records from bands like Paramore, All Time Low, Pierce The Veil, New Found Glory, Taking Back Sunday, and so many more. But we invited Kyle to walk us through his memories of working on the sophomore album from Rochester-based pop-punk band State Champs. This was a break out record for the band in their scene, and Kyle shared with us just what made that record so special. You’ll also hear Kyle talk about how he got into music production, his experience learning from other veteran producers early on, and the importance of focusing on the pursuit of projects you’re extremely excited about - not just as a music maker - but as a fan.
