  • 2018-01-12 Venicequeen.It Interviews Michael Beinhorn MICHAEL
    2018-01-12 VeniceQueen.it interviews Michael Beinhorn MICHAEL BEINHORN AND THE CHILI PEPPERS: A MUTUAL LAUNCH TRAMPOLINE INTRODUCTION Michael Beinhorn is part of Chili Peppers history: because he's the only producer that worked with the original line-up before Hillel Slovak's death (The Uplift Mofo Party Plan, 1987) and the first one who worked with the historical line-up (Mother's Milk, 1989), with Chad Smith and John Frusciante entries. Anthony Kiedis, in his autobiography Scar Tissue, describes Beinhorn as a tyrannical guy for some verse, that as opposed to the previous band's producer, was very focused on the sound, since his great intelligence and musical competence. Kiedis describes particularly the contrasts between the producer and John Frusciante; in fact, Beinhorn asked John to play a musical style very close to metal, while Frusciante didn't feel comfortable playing in that way. Even if there were many incomprehensions, what came up is a fantastic record, the one who pledged the band in the world and that many Chili Peppers fans still love nowadays, thanks to songs like “Fire”, “Nobody Weird Like Me” and “Higher Ground”. Regarding Stevie Wonder's cover, is a track that Beinhorn was asking for a lot, so we have to thank him if the band decided to put on the record; this has generated many contrasts between the producer and Kiedis, since Michael was asking to Anthony to sing the improvisation at the end of the song, according to his autobiography. But The Red Hot Chili Peppers represented only the beginning for the glorious career of Michael Beinhorn as a producer: in fact, he worked with several artists during the years, such as Soundgarden (Superunknown, 1994), Ozzy Osbourne (Ozzmosis, 1995), Hole (Celebrity Skin, 1998), Marilyn Manson - 1 - (Mechanical Animals, 1998), Korn (Untouchables, 1998) and Black Label Society (Shoot To Hell, 2006), just to mention the most imporant.
