Episode 22: Jack Endino

First interviewed in Tape Op some 20 years ago, Jack Endino has been a staple of the Northwest music and recording scene for over 30 years. He describes himself as "the guy in the engine room" during the early voyages of the battleship "Grunge" in the late 80s - and many of the early releases that put Seattle label Sub Pop on the map have his name on them. Artists like Mudhoney, Nirvana, TAD, Soundgarden, L7, Mark Lanegan, and Hot Hot Heat, are just a few of the many bands that Jack has guided through their recordings. I caught up with Jack at Seattle's Soundhouse Studio, and we carried on as only two old friends can. Enjoy!

Awesome stuff! I just love listening to Jack Endino talk.

Fantastic interview. It'd be great if Jack wrote a book someday about stories in the studio and his process. Just seems like such a nice & genuine guy. Hell of a musician and producer too. His output is just insane. Lots of my friends are huge Albini fans and I always bring up Jack, rarely does anyone know who I'm talking about. It's like man, expand your horizons!

He basically started the grunge movement from a recording studio perspective

Can you have a Podcast with Ken Andrews?, it would be really interesting to listen to his mindset while mixing in the box!
