BIO
With years of experience playing live music in bands, cutting his teeth in a quirky little studio in Te Pahu (Waikato), and carefully honing his home recordings; Jacob Brown brings a fresh, passionate and musical ear to the studio environment.
Currently working as an engineer at Parachute Studios, he finds inspiration in the character and imperfections found in instruments and analogue gear, seeking to bring out the right energy and mood for the recordings he works on.
Jacob takes the time to experiment with crafting the right sounds for all his projects, and he has recently worked alongside Muroki, Joe Kaptein, Flaxxies, Cloak Bay and Hāana. When he’s not in the studio, he tours as a bassist in Muroki’s live band.
