Throughout February, EQD's "Show Us Your Junk" video series is showcasing the "Rock Block," an actual city block in Los Angeles' Silver Lake neighborhood that houses the studios of veteran producers, mixers, and musicians Aaron Espinoza (The Ship), Rob Schnapf (Mant Sound Studios) and Dave Trumfio (King Size Sound Labs). We’re starting with Manny Nieto, a.k.a the Rock Block “OG.” Manny was the first of the foursome to find the location and set up his studio in the late 90s. He has since moved his Suplex Audio to a new spot, but respect must be paid. Manny’s resume includes his own bands Distortion Felix and The Chavez Ravine as well as The Breeders, Los Lobos, Chokebore and scores of underground Los Angeles bands.
Dig it as Manny takes us on a journey through his decades worth of cool and unique gear and shares some of his thoughts on running a studio, working with bands and his travels in China. After you’re done salivating over all of his cool junk, head over to the EQD Blog for Manny’s Talk About Your Junk, a deeper dive into Manny’s love of analog sound without being tethered to analog gear, his wild and occasionally dangerous recording sojourn to China, the simple joys of Hong Kong Coffee, “real” Chinese food and how the experience positively affected both his work and home life. www.earthquake...
