Herb Trawick changed our industry. Alongside Dave Pensado, he helped pioneer open access to high-level audio education. Before it was normal for top engineers to share their process publicly, Herb helped make it happen. He wasn’t just a manager. He was a strategist, a connector, a believer in people. Not always embraced by his peers, however true pioneers rarely are. He built platforms that shifted culture and gave engineers a voice. As someone who has dedicated much of my life to education, I recognise what that takes. Resilience. Vision. Thick skin. Herb, thank you for helping all of us believe knowledge should be shared. Rest in peace.

Abbey Road was almost called… Everest. Yes, really. My late friend John Kurlander told me how The Beatles nearly flew to the Himalayas for the cover, before someone said, “Let’s just go outside.” A last-minute decision created history. John passed unexpectedly last year and is sorely missed. This is a beautiful story. #thebeatles #abbeyroad #warrenhuart

That is the real genius. Not that ABBA wrote catchy songs. Many people can do that once. The genius is that they wrote hook laden, structurally daring, emotionally direct music that feels inevitable, as if it could only ever have existed exactly this way. Three minutes. Six hooks. Zero wasted seconds. That is not just pop. That is songwriting at the very highest level.

Ken Scott on The Bewlay Brothers. Bowie ran into the studio saying, “Don’t listen to the lyrics.” Of course, that’s exactly what we’ve been doing ever since. Sometimes the feeling matters more than the meaning. #DavidBowie #HunkyDory #TheBewlayBrothers #KenScott #ProduceLikeAPro #WarrenHuart

Music studios aren’t just music studios anymore. Audio, film, post production, and content now live under the same roof. That’s the thinking behind The Good Days, the new Miami studio from Matt Weiss. It’s designed around creative flow rather than isolated rooms, allowing writing, recording, mixing, visuals, and events to coexist in one connected space. 👉 Watch the full studio tour here: youtube.com/watch?v=AOqsD4…

Perfectionism can kill creativity. Over editing a performance might make it tighter, however it also strips away the spark, the attitude, the human feel. Some of the best moments in music exist because they are not perfect. Don’t chase perfection. Protect the feeling. #producelikeapro #warrenhuart #creativity #recording #musicproduction

Endless options can quietly drain the life out of a performance. So I tracked and mixed an entire song using the Universal Audio Volt 876, committing sounds early, using the onboard compression & vintage pres & making real decisions on the way in. It reminded me why records used to feel different. youtube.com/watch?v=H4BfPi… Win the exact unit Ash Soan used & signed #producelikeapro #recordingstudio #musicproduction #audiogear #warrenhuart

The @Audioscape DA-3A nails that classic LA-3A guitar compression, fast, punchy, and musical, without the noise of ageing hardware. Built with NOS components and pure respect for the original. I used LA-3As constantly with Dave Sardy on guitars, this sound still works every time. #Audioscape #DA3A #Compression #GuitarTone #ProduceLikeAPro #WarrenHuart

My wife Kasia bought me tickets to Sunny Afternoon as a birthday gift. We flew from LA on my birthday just to see it, and it turned out to be one of the most moving nights I’ve had in a theatre. @TheKinks

The studio exists for one reason, creation. In this short article, Ken Scott explains why great producers protect the artist’s space rather than impose their own taste, and what happens when perspective gets in the way of progress. A must read if you care about records, not ego. #ProduceLikeAPro #MusicProduction #RecordProduction #StudioLife #ProducerMindset #CreativeProcess #MakingRecords #MusicIndustry

This console changed how records sound forever. @Harrison_Audio consoles shaped countless classic albums, and the 32Classic brings that legacy into today’s studios with analogue tone, Dante, and Atmos integration. Watch the full video ↓ youtube.com/watch?v=tvgNgm…
