My guest today is Boston-based mastering and restoration engineer. Maria Rice, Maria works at Peerless mastering and has received three nominations for the Grammy award for Best Historical Album. Her remastering work also includes the 2018 reissue of Blondie's Heart of Glass. Maria and I connected over LinkedIn, and I reached out to her, and she graciously accepted my invitation to come on the show. So I'm very much looking forward to bringing you Maria Rice here on the Working Class Audio podcast.In this episode, we discuss:Dorm Room StudioLive RecordingAudio Tough LoveQuitting Architecture SchoolDivided FocusJessica ThompsonGuilt"Real Job" PressureInterningFlorida SimulationFollowing Your GutQuitting Her Day JobTransferable SkillsMasteringRestorationBeing ResilientDiversificationMatt's Monologue: Knowing YourselfLinks and Show NotesPeerless Mastering Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/peerlessmastering/Maria on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maria-rice-8a11a19/WCA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/working_class_audioGo Ad-Free! https://glow.fm/workingclassaudio/Connect with Matt on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattboudreau/Current sponsors & promos: https://bit.ly/2WmKbFwWorking Class Audio Journal: https://amzn.to/2GN67TPCredits:Guest: Maria RiceHost: Matt Boudreau WCA Theme Music: Cliff Truesdell Announcer: Chuck SmithEditing: Anne-Marie Pleau & Matt BoudreauAdditional Music: The License Lab
