Love Music More (with Scoobert Doobert)

Perfect Pitch is when you know what a note is without checking your tuner or your instrument. It's helpful but is also a burden? And why did one study find that 30% of Japanese music students had perfect pitch versus 7% of Polish music students? This wasn't light work either. They had to get 95%+ right to count as "perfect." And can you train up and become perfect? If so, why would you?

A predisposition. A whole bunch of different factors. A gradient from note to note. Kind of cool. Classification. Microtonal. Certain types of pitch syntax. Communicate really quickly. Almost like there’s subtitles. Relative. Train for different things. What is being measured. It can be very helpful. Familial aggregation. The way that you ears are connected to your brain. What is tuning anyway. Very interesting. Tonal which is part of it, semitonal. What is the note actually doing, it’s the action. The thing that makes the song the song. Enough with enough training. A lot of rub in between these frequencies. Another category system. Is a fluid spectrum. Quick exposure. Recognize music or notes. An interesting subject. A detuned experience. Grab a note or two. Like named categories. The same language learning pipeline. The whole song starts to fall down with the guitar. Being connected to frequency. It is useful. Removing that friction. Learn these speech sounds. A cool naming skill. It actually accumulated. All of these incredible things. Big connections in the auditory cortex. Absolute. Very fascinating. Grab a note or two. Run these studies. Even that useful. At that deep level. A named thing, a note. 🍮

Rob’s a producer-engineer & classically-trained musician. He produced his first record just last year. His DIY spirit and engineering chops combine for a unique mix of science and magic. An alchemy of the recording studio.
He’s modded and restored classic gear. Builds microphones at his day job (at the legendary AEA Microphones in Los Angeles). And is passionate about pairing the right tech with the right moment.
We talk boundary microphones and ribbon mics, the history of the tools, and how to deploy them for the maximum vibe. In a recent blog post on The Pixies’ Surfer Rosa, I talked about how boundary microphones defined the guitar sound. It’s serendipitous Rob actually knows how they all work!

Things that tell our stories and that bring us together. A very interesting game of what plugs into what. A really rewarding experience. Another layer of compression. Built arrangements. Mostly creative. Consider to be innate. The presence. These really sensitive audio devices. A wall of weird interesting guitars. Art is what gets us. Innovations. Part of the fun. Some bizarro stuff. An aspect of interaction. In unexpected ways. Speaking of things that just happen. The cumulative amount of insight and wisdom. That low push. Industry, infrastructure, all of that. Can have that experience. Set the tone. It’’s a vibe though. The idea of noise is ever-present. Kind of bellowing. The beauty of it. Like listening through snow. Talking a waveform alternating current. Setting up signal chain. There’s a lot of moments. Capture the movement of the air. A great unifier and an antidote to division. Really cool interactions between the different components. A type of transducer. The limiting factors are also unlimiting. Exploding tambourine. All of those little micro-decisions. Oddly intertwined. You have a speaker. Attenuate and boost. Little tools in the toolkit. The headwaters that’s the spring. String arrangements and stuff. Just a spark. Like a snowball. Interesting things, interesting moments. Different speakers. That big sweep. New unforeseen cool sounds. Like subharmonic. The connection or the inverse relationship. In such a way. How translatable it is. The inspiration hits. That foundation. Putting the energy into it. Technically inclined. Something like a graphic EQ. Recipe book or whatever. To improvise around the problems. That training. The physics or the electronics of sound at that time. The tools available. You get sound. The impression of an instrument. Used in all different applications in music and recording. Great connection between. Wire the woofer. A strong magnet and a coil. Just experimenting.A hodgepodge. As sensitive as possible. In stride. Those glowing things down there that look like light bulbs. The palette of sounds. The story of gear. About adapting. Still sounds cool. Very fresh. Strange names like the bubble machine. 🧼

Last week, Nirvana knocked Michael Jackson off the charts. This week: what happens when the underground becomes the superstar. How DC hardcore finds its way to Olivia Rodrigo's songwriting credits. How the Beatles' studio tricks end up in a Perth beach shack.
Rock didn’t die. It just got so splintered, so loved, so adopted that it became like the air we breathe. And the beautiful part is new communities formed. New folks got to use the vocabulary of rock to tell their stories. From Riot Grrrl to boygenius, that’s something to celebrate.

Something about the loudspeaker. The energy. Distorted and roomy. Out of the depths. New truth. The lineage continues. Inspired by this time. Part of the common thread. Wavy and weird. Reflective. An instrument to be processed. Really blending a lot of stuff. Ethos and mythos. Build unexpected throughlines. The direct inheritance. That producer toolkit. Putting it on a different direction. Feel like energy. That inversion kind of changes. Storytelling. Tilting of the scales. The combination of different parts. Such a cool combination. Being the studio band. Who knows where it’ll go. Hear the change in venue. Introspection and looking out. Musical journey. Proliferate in an unexpected way. That combination. On stage as well. To this twin guitar attack. Attitude. Exaggerated. Elevated but visceral at the same time. Effortless. Found percussion. The way it goes. Of yore. It all comes back together. A lifecycle. Foundational. Sticks around. The evolution of that side of music. Something just deeply accessible. About the emotion. That whole lineage. That’s the tree evolving. Out into the world. Connect community. An entire kind of infrastructure starts to build. The recording fidelity. Legacy. How far we’ve come. Show a different path. A fork in the tree of music. The write within. Accessible. The way it goes. Through this entire time. About the emotion. More open kind of experience. Goofiness. Guitar soloing grammar. Theatrisicm. Kicks down that door. A path that we’re all on and simultaneously building. 🏟️

Ben Rice is at the heart of the Brooklyn music scene, making records at his studio, Degraw Sound in Gowanus, since 2012. He’s since worked with legends like Valerie June, The National, Joan Osborne, The Candles, and Northern Soul greats The Flirtations, earning him an Americana Producer of the Year nom along the way.
What I love about Ben is that nothing about him is in a rush. This is a very chill podcast episode. I literally felt me blood pressure fall as we recorded this. That’s part of the magic here!
He was mentored by Eddie Kramer. He runs his sessions through a Trident console that used to belong to James Iha. He's been part of the indie rock revival, and he's working every day on new music, quietly making some of the best-sounding records in the city.
We talk about the long arc from basement sessions to a room of his own, what it actually takes to build a studio that lasts, and why "calm and thorough" is underrated as a production philosophy.

Comfortable to show up and share. Set the stage like the scene. This elephant in the living room. Quite a game-changer. Listening setup. Crack the code. Really focus on being present. Open to any page. Glean. In the stereo field. It’s one of those things. Notice the nuances. Escape the event horizon. That new vantage point. The architecture. Controlling those highs and lows. Becomes this moment. That can actually be beneficial emotionally. How those move and how that extends. Ever-present. Comes through the commitment. Let that rip. Raises the bar. Pristine recorded tracks. The speaker world. Be there. The best feeling. Using that putty. Take that forward. Ask questions. Just being immersed in it that way. Weird things that can have some rumble. The fizz on the top. The harmonic nature of hearing. It’s been a companion. An interesting duality. To be able to go the opposite direction. Clarity in that. Great information. Nerd out a little bit on the speaker side. Got the mix going. In those sorts of situations. A sonic identity. The frequency graphs that correspond to the notes. Crossing paths. The murk and the overlap. Vibe and energy. Create the space. Like frame it. Every day it reveals something new. Preserve those beautiful moments. Being in it. Instincts worn in. Through the process. Time together. Making stuff. Open and honest conversations. Feels really good emotionally. Inspiration can create its own pace. Really feels magic. Insightful. Music minds. Really novel. Exploring these ideas. Bookshelf speakers became classic studio speakers for a reason. Giving the artist space. The guts to continue. Extend the low end. Also fundamentals. Heard tell of it. Obsessed. In different circumstances. Now you can kind of understand. Art books. Create these moments and these memories. Set the context. Well of energy. The rhythm of the game. Agrees in it colloquially. Share ideas. A lot of parallels. This production thing. How important iterating is. To just do that. What the artist is looking for. The completion of the process. Listening back. What it felt like. Very rarely revert. ▶️

To uniquely combine influences. Dynamics in a different way. That up and down. Room and space. That refinement. Able to deconstruct the songs that you love. A really interesting twist. Tight and crisp. An intensity. The constant baton passing. Borrowed chords. Became a breath of fresh air. Extra energy. The ethos. Air moving through a room. Breathing. The sense of space. The core melody. Opens up a bunch of frequencies. Opening the aperture. Space for your own spice. That inversion of venue. Flush against the surface capturing direct sound and reflection at the same time. To pique interest. A new branch forms. Ability to lift off. To do different thing above it. Size comes from below. Restraint, pocket, in time. The pendulum swing. An attention to dynamics. Creating the sense of size. Keep the musical energy going. Attitude laden. Self-awareness, humor, and a different kind of attitude. Tone and timbre. Hidden complexity as always. A lot of different flavors. It can work. To signify. In the attitude. In the room or the balloon. 🎈
