In The Studio - Hosted by Brad Sundberg

After watching Michael Jackson's "Ghosts" together last week, I found myself thinking about the film even more. In particular, what might have happened if the director of Michael's "The Way You Make Me Feel" music video had been brought in to direct "Ghosts"? In this episode, I share some thoughts on the direction, pacing, and overall production of "Ghosts", and explore how a different creative vision might have shaped the final film.

I’m back from my events in Stockholm and Warsaw and wanted to share a quick recap of how amazing they were, along with what’s coming up next In The Studio! Michael loved these two cities, and after visiting them myself, it’s easy to see why.

I first met Sergiu Gherman at an In The Studio With MJ event in Los Angeles a few years ago. As our friendship has grown over the years, I’ve wanted to sit down with him and hear his full story. We finally had the chance to do just that recently in LA, and I’m excited to share our conversation with you. Sergiu’s journey from Romania to becoming a Grammy-winning producer is a remarkable story of talent, hard work, and following your passion. A lifelong Michael Jackson fan, Sergiu has built an impressive career working with artists including Kendrick Lamar, SZA, Hozier, and many more. I think you’ll really enjoy hearing his story, learning about the experiences that shaped his career, and discovering the influence Michael Jackson has had on his life and music.

From Bubbles the Chimp to Stevie Nicks starting her sessions at midnight, there are a lot of questions people have about what really goes on in the studio. In this episode, I’m answering some of the questions I get asked the most, along with a few stories from my years in the studio.

You may not know the name Brick Price, but if you are a fan of "Captain EO," "Moonwalker", "Star Trek", or countless other productions, you have likely seen his work. Brick is a miniature and special effects artist whose career has taken him behind the scenes of some remarkable film and television productions. His work with Michael Jackson included creating miniatures, special set pieces, and visual effects for projects including "Captain EO", "Moonwalker," and Neverland Valley Ranch. Brick became friends with Michael Jackson around the same time I did, and we crossed paths many times on various MJ projects, particularly at Neverland. I recently reconnected with Brick at his incredible production studio, where we had a fascinating conversation I think you're going to really enjoy. As I've said many times, there’s a lot more to Michael than just "Billie Jean" and "Thriller". Conversations like this offer a glimpse into another side of Michael’s creativity, and the many talented people who helped bring his imagination to life. Enjoy!

During the making of Dangerous, Michael loved hearing our mixes the way fans would—blasting from a car radio. So I built an FM transmitter that let us broadcast from the studio to the parking lot, turning our cars into a private listening room for the music. I'm breaking it all down in this week's podcast, enjoy! 🚀 Captain EO Studio Hangout September 12th: https://vimeo.com/event/6171743 ⭐ ITSWMJ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/inthestudiowithmj 👕 In The Studio With MJ Merch: https://www.bonfire.com/store/in-the-studio-with-mj/ 🎟️ Upcoming In The Studio With MJ Events: https://inthestudiowithmj.ticketbud.com/ 🛒 Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/inthestudiowithmj/list/3DW62CB84XFIK 📱 Follow In The Studio With MJ: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/inthestudiowithmj/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/inthestudiowithmj/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@inthestudiowithmj #MichaelJackson #Dangerous #InTheStudio #MusicProduction #BehindTheMusic

Every year around Michael’s birthday, I like to take a moment to celebrate the music, the memories, and the incredible legacy he left behind. This year, I was struck once again by just how strong that legacy remains. Michael continues to reach millions of listeners around the world, topping Spotify’s legacy charts and introducing new generations to his music. I can't wait to celebrate Michael's birthday in Los Angeles this weekend! Hope to see you there either in-person or via livestream. 🎥 LA Livestream Tickets: https://inthestudiowithmj.ticketbud.com/la-livestream-dual-events-bradx2-captan-eo-40th-93298bb5-db92894fae68 🎟️ Upcoming In The Studio With MJ Events: https://inthestudiowithmj.ticketbud.com/ ⭐ ITSWMJ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/inthestudiowithmj 👕 In The Studio With MJ Merch: https://www.bonfire.com/store/in-the-studio-with-mj/ 🛒 Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/inthestudiowithmj/list/3DW62CB84XFIK 📱 Follow In The Studio With MJ: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/inthestudiowithmj/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/inthestudiowithmj/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@inthestudiowithmj #HappyBirthdayMichaelJackson #MichaelJackson #MJ #Michael #HappyBirthdayMichael

In this episode, I break down one of my personal high-resolution audio and CD playback systems, including the components I selected, how they connect, and why they work together. Over the years, I’ve worked with and owned a wide variety of power amps, speakers, receivers, mixers, preamps, and studio monitoring equipment, but this particular system is focused on achieving accurate, punchy, professional-level sound without spending a fortune. The complete budget hi-fi system delivers what I consider excellent CD playback for just over $700 USD, all-in. I've used these simple techniques to build multiple playback systems for Michael Jackson, Quincy Jones, and Elizabeth Taylor. I hope this episode helps you realize that high-resolution, studio-quality audio can be more attainable than you might think!
