Tight Deadlines = Better Music? Max Brodie on Composing, Studio Workflow & Tom Ronsenthal

This is Part 2 of our conversation with composer and sound designer, Max Brodie. If you missed Part 1, check that out first!

We pick up with a nerdy dive into technology, computer specs, and studio equipment - Jeff’s in his element!

We chat about Max’s composing process, from the initial panic to the clarity of a spotting session, and tight deadlines which force him to let go of perfection. He shares tips including use templates, keeping recording gear and mics ready to go, and using ensemble patches to sketch ideas quickly.

We also explore how time constraints can be an advantage, shaping a distinct sound for a project, and how one composer famous wrote a Coca-Cola ad track in an airport on the way to their meeting!

Finally, Max tells us about his collaboration with singer-songwriter Tom Rosenthal, from their first meeting in Max’s back-garden shed-turned-studio to writing and producing albums together that gained viral TikTok traction.
