Today on A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal, we welcome the popular music engineer Alex Tumay, who's worked with Young Thug, Travis Scott, Kanye West, Metro Boomin, Southside, TM88 and many more, to the Upper West Side! We talked how his parents disguised a cross-country relocation from him, playing in garage bands and surfing as a teen in Florida, going to college with the intention of designing videogame soundscapes, moving to Atlanta and ending up as a studio intern with a side hustle in poker. We discussed how he put himself on through hard work and filling a studio room full of the hottest producers in the business, how he became the preferred engineer of Young Thug, what Birdman is like on a personal level, his experiences on the road with Travis Scott, which producer Facetimes him the most, who had the best mansion to visit, and so much more!
