Category: Faculty Articles

We were lucky enough to sit down with Kevin Churko, one of the most prolific, chart-topping producers and songwriters in rock music. Having written, produced, recorded, mixed, and mastered  albums for Ozzy Osbourne, Five Finger Death Punch, Hellyeah, and many more, Kevin is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to getting "the sound" of a record. In this interview we discuss his approach to production and how the mixing process begins with recording.
