John Vanderslice is the producer of breakthrough albums by The Mountain Goats and Samantha Crain, as well as a songwriter in his own right.
He founded San Francisco's Tiny Telephone Studios - an experimental analogue studio that has hosted the likes of The Magnetic Fields, Jolie Holland and Death Cab For Cutie.
In June this year, Auckland songwriter Simon Comber, aka Herriot Row, had the opportunity to record there.
Simon Comber took a recorder along to take us inside the process.
