From Cameron Whitcomb to Emeline — David Schaeman on Genre-Fluid Production
Description
In this episode of Producer Points, Justin sits down with genre-blending producer, songwriter, and mixer David Schaeman — the creative mind behind standout tracks for Cameron Whitcomb, Emeline, John Harvie, and LOYALS. A Berklee alum with an ear for cinematic pop, gritty country, and hooky punk, David walks through his production style and shares insights into balancing raw emotion with polished execution.
🎶 Song deep dives:
“Quitter” by Cameron Whitcomb — driving acoustics, layered vocals, and rhythmic punch
“This Is How I Learn to Say No” by Emeline — vocal pocket, guitar grit, and emotional clarity
🎛️ We explore:
• David’s go-to guitar pedals, vocal chains, and mixbus templates
• The balance of analog gear and digital tools
• Why the pocket matters more than perfection
If you love emotionally rich records and tight, dynamic production—you’ll get a lot out of this one.
