"It was a lot from [singer/instrumentalist/producer] Richard Swift. Not that he worked that much on it. He mixed and recorded a couple of songs for it. But I learned a lot from him in just the two days we were out at his studio. He uses so much reverb with a very simple approach, something that I really believe in but it's easy to forget how much I believe in that stuff. I hear a lot of him just in the way I recorded it."
Walt's current favorite song produced by Swift is Foxygen's "San Francisco" and what a great one it is. RIP Richard. It sounds like you were one special soul.
