Episode 217: Ian Dobyns
Ian Dobyns is a son, a sibling, a partner, a mixer/producer, a musician, a super-sharp dude, and a great conversationalist. He's also my guest for Episode No. 217.
He stopped by the studio Saturday and chewed the fat with me on life in the producing/engineering/mixing lanes, wearing different band hats, growing up, relationships, and a bunch more. Find him on Instagram at @atlantis_morrissey, @doubledrag.wow, @theyretheirs, @elementrecording, @squishy.audio, and @indiedrummercollective.
Ian and I also talked about a few of his favorite records, which were these:
Third Eye Blind's 1997 self-titled debut
Machina/The Machines of God (2000), Smashing Pumpkins
Colour Revolt's Plunder, Beg, & Curse (2008)
Yuck's 2011 self-titled album
Beach House's 7 (2018)

Many thanks to Ian for the correspondence to make this chat happen. I appreciated his time, his energy, and his wit. And thank you to all that support the show.
