The Daily Adventures of Mixerman : What Spinal Tap did to heavy metal, Mixerman does to the recording process

In the summer of 2002, I began to chronicle my Daily events on a Major Label recording session with a bidding-war band, an infamous producer, and a seemingly limitless budget. Every night, after a long session with these crazy characters, I posted up the day's events.

As Metro reporter Gina Arnold put it, "Mixerman is supposed to be writing about recording techniques, but somehow, through that prism, he has hit upon a gripping story." That's right, it was even mentioned in random newspapers at the time.When I began posting my story, I had an audience of 200. By week 4 that grew to 25,000. And by the last entry, I was posting to the delight of over 150,000 music business professionals around the world. There were discussion threads all over the internet, debating every decision we made along the way. The story went viral before viral was even really a thing. Most people find them sidesplittingly hilarious. Others found them reprehensible, which is also hilarious.

The Daily Adventures of Mixerman is available in book form, but you should also check out the audiobook, which has been produced like an old radio show, with music, foley, sound Æ’x, and characters performed by some of the most well-known record producers and engineers of all time.
