Cameron Webb
In this episode, I interviewed one of the giants of rock production, Cameron Webb. he’s perhaps best known for being Motorhead’s long time Producer, engineer and mixer but has a stellar discography going right back to having worked with Terry Date, Michael Jackson, Kelly Clarkson and many others including Megadeth, NoFX, Pennywise and the list goes on.
He has an organic and inspiring approach, always looking to get sounds right at the source, working to capture the essence of what the artist has to offer (in Motorhead’s case, a lot).
We talk about:
- His career beginnings through to present
- Recording and working with Lemmy and Motorhead.
- Cameron’s production philosophy
- Mixing philosophy
- Mixing live recordings
- Amp simulators – go or no-go?!
- Advice on starting a career in audio
- Attitude and attention span of bands when recording
- Various stories about Lemmy
- Much, much more
