Myself and Weird Jungle cohorts Katie Tavini and Izzy McPhee spoke with Alec on a live panel about all things mastering, as well as some super important discussions about inclusivity in the industry, and how to make the industry more accessible to under-represented people. It was a really cool event, fantastic to catch up with lots of audio folk in real life, and of course try out some tasty (and eye-wateringly expensive) gear. Looking forward to next year already! https://www.stephenkerrison.com/blog/flare-audio-my-audio-world monthly 0.5 2026-03-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/cfdd7205-2b5e-4b18-90c5-e6ef4620ca1d/Screenshot+2025-06-23+at+12.51.33.png BLOG - Flare Audio - My Audio World - Make it stand out I recently sat down with the lovely folk at Flare Audio and had a chat with them about music life, mastering, and the various products they make that have helped me look after my hearing, not to mention sanity, for quite a few years now. I really do like Flare, they’re a small, independent, UK based company that make genuinely innovate things and they’re super nice people too.

I was absolutely floored by their total commitment to their (very, very) short but extremely potent set, from the uncompromising set length to the custom lighting and instrumentation which included two bass players playing exactly the same super fast and complex lines as each other with an amazing combination of aggression and precision. There were a few disgruntled murmurs that perhaps 10 minutes was a little unsatisfying to be considered a headline set, but I feel that was somewhat missing the point. I hugely admired their decision to play for exactly the amount of time they felt was suitable for the kind of music they played, and I’d rather a perfect ten minutes than an hour of filler any day of the week. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/86067e74-831b-4bf7-aeb4-7202acc070b0/Burned-As-Witches3-1024x640.jpg REAL LIFE MISSIVES - Real Life Missives - April 2026 - A week or so later I headed to Night and Day cafe in Manchester to watch Burned As Witches play on their first ever tour! I had the honour of mastering the debut Burned As Witches album, and to hear the songs played live at a hoofing volume was properly ace. Burned As Witches is Rick McMurray from Ash’s solo project, and instead of the punky power-pop of his main band, this solo project is hugely indebted to things like Black Sabbath, Kyuss and early Soundgarden. It was a really fun show, and really lovely to see a musician doing something a little outside their usual comfort zone and having a great time doing it. Rick McMurray, Burned As Witches https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/4524fc64-48c9-4964-9d35-4b9ab978263d/0042306844_10.jpg REAL LIFE MISSIVES - Real Life Missives - April 2026 - The 18th April brought the annual Record Store Day, a thing I have very mixed feelings about (well, not that mixed if I’m honest), but it did give me the chance to witness the awesome Peach play at Rough Trade in Liverpool as part of the RSD events. Such a great band, really well executed noisy rock fronted by the absolutely incredible Ellie Godwin, also of No Violet (whom I worked with on the mastering of their debut album on the Totality label). Super powerful band, really great songs sung by an insanely gifted singer. What’s not to like? Peach https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/60821c93-a9c0-4eb7-a6bb-91ffff5e856e/DJHaram-770x512.png REAL LIFE MISSIVES - Real Life Missives - April 2026 - I also managed to make it down to Quarry (Liverpool’s best venue - fact) to catch a live set by Hyperdub’s DJ Haram. It was such a great show, a quite kalaidascopic blending of live hardware electronics, DJing and sound design with no sections seemingly lasting more than a couple of minutes before pivoting into something else. She played some choice tracks from her brilliant ‘Beside Myself’ album as well as some bits from the 700 Bliss album ‘Nothing To Declare’, her collaboration with the amazing Moor Mother, but it was hard to really see it a a selection of ‘songs’, more just a dense collage of inspired ideas from a super exploratory and creative artist. https://www.stephenkerrison.com/reallifemissives/Blog Post Title One-3zaa9-znakg monthly 0.5 2026-04-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/37fc4e01-300c-4200-b701-d5edaa09dcec/SEI_262120996.jpg REAL LIFE MISSIVES - Real Life Missives - March 2026 - Make it stand out Cardiacs, 2026 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/7d4d9594-a59f-4754-83a6-51bd60f99d95/Danny-Brown-10.webp REAL LIFE MISSIVES - Real Life Missives - March 2026 - Make it stand out Photo credit: Anya Williams https://www.stephenkerrison.com/works daily 0.75 2025-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1763979104539-DSMOM78X3YRCYCDIQ4OQ/no+violet_mastering_stephen+kerrison.jpg WORKS - No Violet - No Violet Totality Records https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1754588790771-L4U0ZKD3YW5QB12ZDS9M/alpha+male+tea+party_reptilian+brain_mastering_stephen+kerrison.jpg WORKS - Alpha Male Tea Party - Reptilian Brain Big Scary Monsters Records https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1776428704019-C2U98DVSS80AF1VKLJ4A/a2210323723_10.jpg WORKS - Burned As Witches - Burned As Witches Fierce Panda Records https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/d67ca8c7-a3f3-45c9-87f3-214e1f85143b/Screenshot+2024-05-14+at+21.43.57.png WORKS - PETBRICK - Liminal Rocket Recordings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1776428866601-RNR5CZJ51DZQL444IDZY/a0387988193_10.jpg WORKS - LIFE - Abstract/Natural EMI North / Launchpad+ https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1772350313825-6YJNNJP1HSCCC8KWLFOQ/a1925463460_10.jpg WORKS - Jim Moray - Gallants Managed Decline Records https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1779393087156-65GIBT1BX834GH3PM6QE/maebe_brain+paint_stephen+kerrison_mastering.jpg WORKS - Maebe - Brain Paint Ripcord Records https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1779393088369-LIXUJEC8BP1UNJ0D5AAW/quincey+may+brown_careful+pockets_stephen+kerrison_mastering.jpg WORKS - Quincey May Brown - Careful, Pockets Other Shoe Records https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1728312337228-HGKFK652U5II8FVX2TKD/bicurious_your+life+is+over+now_stephen+kerrison_weird+jungle_mastering.jpg WORKS - Bicurious - Your Life Is Over Now Big Scary Monsters Records https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1770542923430-LMO1IXH9DPAR64YXT24F/a0467178662_10.jpg WORKS - Annie Gardiner - Sleeping Dogs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/1746728727957-PH8PBN1DHJQ23KD71UOX/test+plan_walking+vacuum_teeth_squat+rave_enough_mastering_stephen+kerrison.jpg WORKS - Test Plan - Four Songs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66432cd9b5ddb309067d8e35/eb84eb35-7738-418e-a170-400a8e0e9076/Screenshot+2024-05-14+at+21.35.48.png WORKS - DITZ - On The Bai'ou Alcopop!
