INTERVIEW: Love Crushed Velvet; RIYL: Editors, Bloc Party, The Black Keys
What was like to work with Mark Needham and how did that relationship develop?
We really liked the work that Mark had done with The Killers and a number of other acts, and felt that his mixing style would be a great fit for this EP. We reached out to him directly and he liked the material, so things moved forward quickly from there. Mark is a seasoned mixer with superb instincts. When you're working with someone of that caliber and you're both on the same page, it's a real pleasure because the process is very smooth. Right around the time that he did “Delusions”, the Imagine Dragons album that he had just mixed started to acquire a lot of buzz, so his star has really risen again in the interim. We're thrilled for him about that.
