In The Studio - Hosted by Brad Sundberg

The "Michael" movie has officially been out for a week and seeing you guys show up and drive those box office numbers despite the critics has been incredible to witness. Michael's fans are truly like no other! In this week's episode I did another Vinyl Battle, this time comparing "Don't Stop 'Til You get Enough" and "Bad" from the “Michael: Songs From The Motion Picture” album and the original "Off The Wall" and "Bad" albums. Join me as I break down what makes each of these records hit the way they do, and how they compare to the movie soundtrack. Finally, I wanted to answer a few questions from last week's episode, and ask you guys a few questions as well. Please comment and share your thoughts, and what you think of the "Michael" soundtrack as well. Enjoy!

On March 28th I returned to The Hit Factory to host an ITSWMJ event with my good friend Tony Black. Walking through those doors brought back so many memories from 1994 when I was working on the HIStory album. For this episode I wanted to share a few of those insights and memories that came flooding back. I hope you'll enjoy returning to The Hit Factory with me!

Our first Vinyl Battle! A mostly unscientific comparison of one song from the original Bad album, the HIStory album, and the Michael Jackson Ones album! Welcome To The Jungle - I mean Studio!

The "Michael" album has caused significant conversation, frustration and anger since it's release in 2010. I had no direct connection to it, although I did know and like a couple of the songs. The MJ fan community knew something was "off" with at least three of the songs, leading to a deep investigation by my friend Damien Shields. He and his is stop-at-nothing team created a long-form very detailed account of the "Michael" album missteps, presented in his "Faking Michael" podcast. In this episode I share my thoughts on Damien's findings and talk about how and why recording Michael's vocals (ironically sung by Michael) was such a rare and unique process to be a part of. Huge shout-out to Damien and his team for an amazingly detailed piece of journalism! Check out his series here: https://www.youtube.com/c/FakingMichael

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of the HIStory album, I gathered my buddies Matt Forger, Rob Hoffman, and Tony Black for a round table discussion swapping stories and memories about working with Michael back in the studio in 1994. We answer questions you submitted, share stories, and reflect on just how fortunate we were to be a part of such an iconic album. Happy 30th HIStory!

November 21, 1989 a remarkable album was released by Quincy Jones called Back on the Block. I had the absolute honor of working with Quincy on several projects, including Back on the Block where I was credited as a Technical Director. Quincy Jones was one of a kind and I will do the best I can to share a few memories and insights from this amazing record.

Happy 36th Birthday to the Bad album! Curious about what it was like in the room where it happened? Pour yourself a favorite beverage and let's dive into it.

My fact-finding team (me) is proud to present my very incomplete list of 10 facts, memories, and tidbits from my 16 months of working on Michael Jackson's HIStory project. I hope you'll enjoy!

Part 2 of my interview with Matt Forger, and we really get into what it was like for him working on Captain EO, and his experiences all the way down to opening day of the film. Enjoy!

This week we Go Just Around the Riverbend and dig into the amazing Pocahontas film score with my buddy Brian Vibberts, one of the project engineers!

In this week's podcast I can't wait to introduce you to an old friend and great engineer - Michael Braunstein! We discuss what Record Plant Studios was really like in the 70's (including the infamous jacuzzi), then dive into an amazing Barry Manilow album. "2 am Paradise Cafe". Come join us In The Studio...
