I loved this! Listened to this album so much as a kid! Do a Foster the People song from Torches! That will be incredible

Hi MWTM, and hi to Tony Hoffer, Thank you for these presentations. I am very happy Tony has become one of our teachers here. very friendly guy. I am learning a lot. And heproduced some of my all time favorite records. What`s missing on MWTM in my opinion is some acoustic stuff. Thanks again for letting us watch over the shoulder of geniuses like Tony. M

Tony Hoffer is most known for his colorful, gritty productions and mixes that pop out of the speakers. His work over the years spans across alternative, electronic, rock, pop and indie. Hoffer spent his early years in Miami making music on 2 cassette decks and a reel-to-reel machine.

Tony started off playing guitar in ‘post-punk’ bands...
