Nice to see that The Incredible Hulk also is an incredible producer!
you mean Batman
definetly more batman =D he's not green enough to be the hulk
I always wonder about people who deliberately wear clothes way too small for them.
Oh man, I got my start on the Sneap forum as well around 2001. At one point there was a forum all-stars vote, and I was included in that along with Kazrog and a few others. I remember Shane and I were getting such crazy guitar tones out of a POD, that we had to send Andy and everyone else our presets, haha. I'm pretty sure we originally met there as well, Ola.
Yeah the pod patches!
I remember Andy asking advice how to export them while talking to him on AIM.
your user name
Was diobolic5150, isn't it?
Then after some years you started using your real name
Great days!
I really am envious of this exchange haha
Haha, yeah, long time ago! I loved it back then.
@@chaosandorderstudio Sup kaomao! :)
he traded guitar picks for body pecs
He's probably using dumbbells as picks.
If you can get Mick Gordon for a coffee one day that would be amazing!
I'm late, but still.. Finding out that Ermin has produced some of my favourite modern Artists, while knowing he comes from my Country makes me simply happy. Very happy. Hvala ti Ermine! 💙
Zaista impresivnu listu ima lik
@@PeachwiseSyndrome apsolutno se slazem :)
Systematic Mixing guide is the OG.
Oh man, his guide is fantastic, been using it for years.
Speaking of imperfections once I got a dream theater album downloaded, aand the version i had, someone put those scratchy sounds in it, and I listened for that for years. Then I got the real thing, and I missed the scratches :D :D
Ermin is fantastic to work with. The exchange with him during the mastering process was eye-opening on many levels and really pushed me forwards as a mixer.
Thanks for the mention Ermz!
In the studio with Ermin: "First take perfect or skull is crushed"
Oh I miss the good old days on the Sneap forum.
Glad to see you both on the coffee with Ola
Cheers
Kaomao
Ahh the good old days! I miss that little community, learnt a ridiculous amount and all great peeps back in the early-mid naughties.
@@themaidenmaniac well said Kev
His muscle mass defines the tone of the albums he mastered 🤟🏽🤣
Ermin is the dude! Got his book back in the day and still use it!
I love Ermins work with Australian prog metal band Vanishing Point. Great interview Ola!!!
Vanishing point rules
That they do
Ermin is the kind of dude everyone would be lucky to work with, he's focused on building people's futures and making bands sound frickin sweet! Nice work!
Sneapsters. Miss that place. Glad to see you both doing so well for yourselves. Cheers! 🍻
Love this dude
cool dude. thanks for the video guys!
Great interview! A talented guy, with a good attitude. The information on guitar tuning is invaluable! Thanks Ola & Ermin. Take care!
Gosh! What a great video. Ermin was always so nice to me on those forums. Good times. Glad I got to experience it.
the interwebs is so jaded now. The forum culture used to cultivate knowledge, sharing, and creativity. Nowadays, if you post something asking for advice, or help with anything; you have to weed through tons of bashing and BS to get to the few replies with actual help. I miss those days!!!!
These days you Google something, and the first result is a forum, and the first reply is "c'mon man, don't you know how to use Google?" Lol...
It's generally a problem with communities growing too large. Partially because of trolls seeping in, but when questions get repeated on the same platform over and over again, I get the frustration.
I have some fond memories of forums too. I know of currently good ones I don't use, but everything I loved is dead, lol.
Loved this episode. One of the few guys in audio that actually knows what he's talking about and can back it up.
Thanks for the shout, Ermz! Great interview.
Great video again, thanks Ola!!
My favorite Coffee with Ola so far! Ermin is the dude 🤙🏽
Great interview and info. Amazing to see you go from being an awkward interviewer to being a natural. Well done, keep them coming.
Everything here is gold. The parts about tracking and pitch are soooo important. Best CWO yet!
Thanks Ermin for Eurobass! After watching Ola's video demo, I've bought it, and I'm now using it on every single track I make!
This was my favorite coffee with Ola. This guy was super interesting and cool to listen to. He is a natural.
Really look up to Ermin as a producer/engineer, great episode. Thanks Ola!
This Has become my favorite part of your channel, i'm always waiting for a new coffee with Ola
This is awesome! Ermin's book was basically my "cheat sheet" when going through audio school lol Favorite coffee with Ola so far
Bought the guide a couple weeks ago and it's really great!!! Really help me to get my mix on the right path! Good job Ermin!
Absolute unit
You're such an excellent interviewer, Ola. People can't help but be chilled out and relaxed with you, being such a nice and laid-back dude, and the answers you get from your guests are SO DAMN INTERESTING because your questions are so informed and good! Thanks so much for this content.
Also, I would love to see you do one with Johannes Persson of Cult of Luna. They have a new album coming out soon and I'm so excited I could shit.
More like this!!!!! Thanks
Wow, this interview was awesome! Thanks Ermin, I grabbed a copy of your book and after reading the guitars section I'm totally sold already 😁
Love how this is just one gigantic nostalgia clusterfuck for both of you
I loved the engineer/ producer/ gear talk. A great coffees with Olas!
"Dead heart in a dead world" - perfection. Fn lv it
Yesss, this was awesome, Ermin FTW !!
Great interview Ola! Entertaining and informative. 🤘
I love this guys work. Didnt knew he was buff. Nice, man !
recently bought his mixing guide! , great stuff
There's a pretty big community on the Seven Strings forum still nowadays👍 I wasn't unfortunately an user of the Andy Sneap forum, but I was 'DevilFinger' in the guitar.com forum back in 2001
And he mixed MoTU great did an amazing job! You two have great synergy.
When the interview is so good you have to pause in the middle to digest it
best video ever ola love it i learn a lot i need a evertune
Very very interesting and instructive!!!
And Ermin (the John Petrucci of engineers) KILLED it on the album!
Worlds collide! This is crazy. Two of my favorite CZcamsrs.
Really great interview
such an amazing producer!
Super cool !! Thanks for the video!!
Really love Ermin, he seems like such a wholesome guy :)
So fu****' inspiring once again !
Ultimate metal. The good old days
This was a great interview
Love this interview
Great Video and great guest
Birch Poland! HA! Loved this vid!
Great upload, thanks!
Great damn interview !!
had no idea who this guy was, i like his brain.
The collection of meat and bone he uses to carry it around is also appealing, to whamen, I assume.
Fair play Ola i agreed with so much of this. You made things click in my head was cool haha.
Ps- definitely buying that book.
Ermin is the guy that you want to work on your project. Plus he is such a nice guy.
Was hoping for this :)
the Early 2000's really was the hay day of forums and help. Being 45 I remember how great it was and you're right people now are mean to people who ask for help or ideas they are ripped apart. I spend a lot of time on Facebook through messenger helpings noobs I see getting put down. it's sad how the musician culture has changed online. awesome interview..
Ermin is such a DUDE!
eye of the enemy- vengence paradox! that is the greatest sonic display that has ever been done!
Hm, Ola is actually getting better and better with these interviews. This was great! Reminds of the Misha interview. Thanks Ola!
One of the most useful Coffee with Ola stuff! Solid 6/10!
Excellent, mature and very professional
This was awesome
i started learning the basics on the andy sneap section as well in 2010. I think it was when Ermin just released his mixing guide.
That forum is an absolute goldmine for sound engineering knowledge.
I don't go on it anymore though :/
I am very proud of this dude as a fellow Aussie. Sorta like we have another talent like Mick Gordon. Good on ya Ermin!
LEGENDA
Great conversation.
I'm getting the Systematic Mixing Guide for Christmas haha. Also I downloaded Eurobass II today and it sounds freaking awesome!
I read that post of Mark regarding the Evertune when he posted it and your answer made me giggle quite a bit! :-D
The Mix at the beginning! 🔥🔥🔥 Great interview!
Funny, part of the reason I no longer forum or post is the exact reasons talked about here. Really enjoy your stuff though Ola. Kind of inspiring me to get back at it. I plan to start releasing stuff soon. Thanks for that. Cheers!
Man, everybody I look up to comes from that Andy Sneap forum. Sounds like it is/was a cool place to hang
I know its mental! I used to build cars and there was a forum called OddKidd thats done the same thing in the car world.
I remember getting Glenn Fricker a tour at Schecter and he ran into one of my coworkers that happened to know him from the forum.
This feels so Andy Sneap Forum reunion alike... although i only discovered it in 2009. It was so alive back then...
Ola dee correct prouncerer!!!
Ermin might be a Master of the Universe. *OF METAL*
Andy Sneap forum! damn I miss those days haha
Great Chatting on the Sneap Forum back in the day. Got so many good tips and tricks from all the dudes on there. Can't remember my old username, but I remember checking in on that forum every day.
Great and funny interview! I lol´ed
The old school forums were just better in every single way than what we have these days. Should there be any drummers here they might remember Extreme Metal Drummers boards(EMD) where you casually run into Tim Waterson(Fastest hand and feet record holder at the time) or the mighty Hellhammer of Mayhem fame. Everyone was more busy sharing what they love than chasing for fake internet points.
Is that forum still around?
@X E Half, if not more, of the users of these forums were/are millennials, but sure.
@X E There's an entire generation between 'boomers' and 'millennials'. 'Generation X'.
I agree that it makes sense to divide millennials up, more so than with the generations immediately preceding and following, but I think you've gotta move the cut off to around 1990.
I was born at the end of the 80s. I was unusual in that I had internet (and computer) access at home for as long as I can remember. Ubiquitous internet access, smart phones, etc. didn't really take off until people my age were, by the standards of many countries, 'adults'.
That aside, forums are social media. Social media more broadly was created largely by Generation X and older millennials. Niche forums still exist. Magazines still exist.
'Dragged onto social media by younger siblings and older parents'? Eh. Definitely appeared to me like it happened the other way around.
@X E It sounds quite like you've decided that your experiences were more universal than I imagine they were. It was the kids your sort of age I remember as getting into all the modern things, phones in particular first. Which makes sense, given that people your age were still young and yet far more likely to be working in some form and have the money to get things.
I'm struggling to think of parents (mostly boomers) that were happy with their kids my age having phones (either because they were the ones paying or because they had, largely ungrounded, fears about them).
I don't think the love of analogue equipment is really linked to anything asides having the money to afford it. I know a lot of people that play/make music. The vast majority (at least those making guitar/rock based music), regardless of age, seem to be of the 'analogue is best!!' persuasion. I have plenty of friends and acquaintances that seem to feel that their tube equipment is superior to the Kemper that I rely upon near exclusively. Everything seems to be about gear and tone. I'm only interested in making music.
"Everyone was more busy sharing what they love than chasing for fake internet points."
Offff that hit me hard. I miss forums so much. The worst thing is so many people using FB and IG would be in their element on guitar forums.
Ermin was the only guy in the list i did not know. But this probably is my favorite episode of coffee with Ola.
Awesome episode! Damn Ermin Hamidovic looks like adult Atreus, son of Kratos :-D
A great producer, no doubt! It takes serious skill to make the albums sound as good as he does
Btw would you ask Jari Mäenpää or Mikael Åkerfeldt to your show?
DEFFINITELY ask Jari!
great fucking episode. a lot of home mix engineers (like myself) could learn a lot from this. Keep up the great work to both of ya!
Ermin is the man 😋
Ljubi majka svog Ermina,divni ste
I got confused to see Ermin hamsandwich and you together. I didn't know that one of my favorite sim racers on youtube also is the producer of Periphery. RESPECT 😎🤙💪
Ultimate Metal, such nostalgia :D
Periphery 3? Daaaaaaamn, so good.
Noice interview Ola 🤘🏽
