My guest today is Grammy Nominated engineer Stephen Dent. Stephen has worked on records for Notorious B.I.G, Sean Combs, Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, and Lil Kim. He also spent a number of years running Daddy\u2019s House, the studio owned by Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs located in Brooklyn. I met Stephen while participating in rooms on Club House. I reached out and he accepted my invitation to come on the show. We have a great conversation and I\u2019m looking forward to you hearing about his journey.\nIn this episode, we discuss:\n\nMotown\n\nGospel\n\nGo Go Music\n\nYacht Rock\n\nAnthony Wellington\n\nOffset Printing\n\nDJing\n\nMaking Beats\n\nThe Forest Gump Effect\n\nSuper VHS/Beta Max Recording\n\nEngineering Out of Spite\n\nOmega Recording School\n\nSSL Plasma Meters\n\nDC to NYC\n\nHouse of Sound\n\nBob Rosa\n\nTackling the Tape Library\n\nSleeping on Trains\n\nBefriending The Homeless\xa0\n\nThe One Page That Changed His Life\n\nWorking with Sean Diddy Combs\n\nNot Leaving the Studio\n\nGolf\n\nTeaching\n\nSons Man Cave\n\n\nMatt's Rant: Self Evaluation\nLinks and Show Notes\n\n\nStephen on Instagram: @inlikedent\n\n\n\nOblique Strategies: https://bit.ly/3lkhNkW\n\n\n\nWCA on Instagram:\xa0@working_class_audio\n\n\n\nGo Ad-Free!\xa0https://glow.fm/workingclassaudio/\n\n\n\nConnect with Matt on Linkedin:\xa0https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattboudreau/\n\n\n\nCurrent sponsors & promos:\xa0https://bit.ly/2WmKbFw\n\n\n\nWorking Class Audio Journal:\xa0https://amzn.to/2GN67TP\n\n\n\nCredits:\n\n\nGuest:\xa0Stephen Dent\n\n\nHost:\xa0Matt Boudreau\xa0\n\n\nWCA Theme Music:\xa0Cliff Truesdell\xa0\n\n\nAnnouncer:\xa0Chuck Smith\n\n\nEditing:\xa0Anne-Marie Pleau & Matt Boudreau\n\n\nAdditional Music:\xa0Cordova
