The AudioBubbles podcast

AudioBubbles pod #3 has arrived! Dave House chats about his studio 'The Noisefloor'; a facility based in Leith, Edinburgh where artists and other audio creators can plug in to a high quality recording environment to capture music, audiobooks, podcasts etc. One of those ideas where you're amazed that more people haven't had it! Dave is also an electronic musician in his guise as The Reverse Engineer - well worth checking out, see below.

It's the last episode of this season! We spoke to Tom Povey, re-recording mixer for Glasgow post-production house Arteus. Tom has worked his magic on lots of shows that you might have heard of, e.g. The X Factor, Britain's Got Talent, This Time With Alan Partridge, and many more (see links below). Tom tells us how he got his break in the industry, talks gear, and offers some great advice for anyone looking to get into audio post-production work. Thanks Tom - and thank you to everyone who's listened to this first series. Season 2 is in the works, so watch this space....

Episode 5 of the AudioBubbles podcast brings us to the multifaceted career of Kenny Inglis.

Kenny started out as a project studio owner, then became an electronic musician, which led to him composing music for some huge TV shows: Six Feet Under, CSI, and Numb3rs to name just a few.

He's also scored documentaries, worked on ads, and provided the music for various film trailers. He still composes his own music and has a new album, under the name Imperfect Stranger, coming out soon. And if that's not enough, he also produces some very impressive photography!

This episode is sponsored by RG Microphones, boutique makers of custom-built mics. Check them out.

On we go, to episode 4 of the AudioBubbles podcast. Who'd have thought we'd make it this far?!

This time out, I speak to Ali Murray - sound designer, audio post-production whizz, lecturer, and drummer. Ali explains what sound design actually is (!), talks about his work for film and TV (credits include Oscar/BAFTA nominated short documentaries and short films), and offers some excellent Foley tips.

Phew - We've made it to a second episode!

This time, we chat with Iain McKinna, owner of Edinburgh's Offbeat Studios. Iain has had a really interesting career, starting out in the analogue days of punk rock (& one of his bands was signed by Simon Cowell!). He was an early adopter of digital technology and MIDI, and has a great perspective on today's audio recording landscape.

Offbeat has carved out a very nice niche for itself, focusing on audiobooks, voiceovers and other audio post-production work.

Iain is still actively writing and recording music - his band Harmonic Overdrive are well worth a listen.
