My other advice is to start writing songs and singing right away.

I think we could have done a lot more great music, so I was disappointed that we didn't continue making records and touring, but it's hard to argue with 10 good years.

I see myself as the buffer between the band and the record company.

Most bands have a sound that they're already identified with, so for the producer it becomes a process of helping them find their muse in the studio to make a record that will not only satisfy them artistically, but will also do something in the marketplace.

I think that technology has both introduced new sounds but also allowed an increasingly painterly approach to recording music as you can now paint over what you've done and more and more refine an existing performance.

The vocals are what immediately draw people in and sell the song.

Some artists want a producer to be a kind of svengali - someone who actually creates a sound for them.

For a young band about to make a record, make sure you get the vocals right.

But when you're beginning, you should try to focus on something you love and your own way of doing things.
