Steve Albini est sans doute le premier producteur ingénieur du son dont j'ai entendu parler lorsque j'ai commencé à écouter du rock. Son nom m'aura accompagné jusqu'à aujourd'hui dans les notes et crédits de nombreux albums appréciés. Il est décédé Mercredi 8 mai à 61 ans d'une crise cardiaque survenue alors qu'il était dans son studio d'enregistrement Electrical Audio (Chicago, Illinois). J'ai eu la chance de le voir sur scène en 2016 avec son groupe Shellac.
