The Paper Chase brought me here, Jon is the man

[@rome8180]

I think I just realized he's my favorite producer. Or at the very least, he's right up there with Tucker Martine and Jack Joseph Puig. When I look through his credits, it's stunning how many artists I love he's worked with.

[@MS-wi3ug]

I never realized he was behind a huge portion of some of my favorite bands and their albums! It's crazy because I had only ever known him initially from The Paper Chase until I looked them up. Comes full circle for sure, I wonder how much influence he had in the sound of the final products

[@damion2226]

I really like John's attitude.
