Radiohead hired him to produceOK Computer(1997), which was a major success and brought him attention from major artists. He has produced all of their albums since, along with several projects with the Radiohead membersThom YorkeandJonny Greenwood.Godrich won theGrammy Award for Best Engineered Non-Classical Albumfor the 2003 Radiohead albumHail to the Thief.

Early years and education[edit]

Nigel Godrich was born inWestminster,London, the son of Victor Godrich, aBBCsound supervisor, and Brenda Godrich.[citation needed]He was fascinated by recording at an early age.[1]As a child, after he asked for a machine to make records, his father bought him a cassette machine; Godrich used it to make recordings of his television, train sets and running water.[1]

Godrich was educated atWilliam Ellis Schoolin North West London, where he shared classes with his friend and the futureZero 7member Henry Binns.[citation needed]Godrich began playing guitar, inspired byJimi HendrixandFrank Zappa.[citation needed]He first visited a recording studio at the age of 16, when his band recorded a demo at Elephant Studios,Wapping,and spent time asking the engineer questions.[2]He studied at theSchool of Audio Engineering(SAE), London.[3]

Career[edit]

After graduating from SAE, Godrich became a junior staff member at the Audio One studio complex, working as atea boy.[3]He did not enjoy his time there.[4]According to Godrich, "With a beeper in my pocket, I'd wait next to the kettle, ready to deliver my hot beverages. I wasn't even allowed in the studios, but I [would] hang there thinking, 'OK, it's only the first rung, but at least I'm on the ladder.'"[3]

After the closure of Audio One,[4]in 1990 Godrich worked atRAK Studios,London, first as a messenger and later as a studio assistant. He would stay late at night, inviting musician friends to play there while he practised recording them.[3]At RAK, he became a tape operator for the producerJohn Leckie,with whom he worked on albums byRideandDenim.[4]

After four years, Godrich left RAK to go freelance and set up his own studio, Shabang, where he planned to create dance music.[4]Six months later, he was hired to engineer and mixThe Sound Of... McAlmont & Butler(1995), the debut album byMcAlmont & Butler.Godrich said it was a "brilliant experience" and creditedBernard Butlerwith teaching him how to produce records.[4]

Radiohead[edit]

Godrich first worked with the rock bandRadioheadwhen John Leckie hired him at RAK to engineer their EPMy Iron Lung(1994) and their second album,The Bends(1995).[3]The band nicknamed him "Nihilist", approving of his efforts to take their sound in new directions.[3]When Leckie left the studio to attend a social engagement, Radiohead and Godrich stayed to record B-sides. One song, "Black Star", was instead included onThe Bends.[3]In 1995, Godrich produced Radiohead's charity single "Lucky",plus the B-sides" Bishop's Robes "and" Talk Show Host ", released on the 1996 single"Street Spirit (Fade Out)".[3]

I can only ever have one band like Radiohead who I've worked with for this many years. That's a very deep and profound relationship. The Beatles could only have ever had one George Martin; they couldn't have switched producers halfway through their career. All that work, trust, and knowledge of each other would have been thrown out of the window and they’d have to start again.

—Godrich in 2016[5]

Radiohead invited Godrich to co-produce their third album,OK Computer(1997).[3]It wonBest Alternative Albumat the40th Grammy Awards[6]and sold more than 4.5 million copies worldwide.[7]Working in improvised studios without supervision, Godrich and the band learned as they went, and credited the success to the open process. In 2013, Godrich told theGuardian:"OK Computerwas such a big thing for me because I was given power for the first time. Some of these incredibly intelligent and insightful people said 'do what you want' to me so I worked my arse off for them and together we did something that represents where we all were at the time. And it stuck for some reason. People got it, so that changed my life. "[8]

Godrich has produced every Radiohead studio album since. He won theGrammy Award for Best Engineered Non-Classical Albumfor their sixth album,Hail to the Thief(2003).[9]For their seventh album,In Rainbows(2007), Radiohead initially hired a new producer,Spike Stent.According to the guitaristEd O'Brien,Radiohead wanted to get out of the "comfort zone" by working with a new producer,[10]and the bassist,Colin Greenwood,said Godrich was busy working withCharlotte GainsbourgandBeck.[11]Radiohead re-enlisted Godrich after their sessions with Stent proved fruitless.[12]

Godrich's father died during the recording of Radiohead's ninth album,A Moon Shaped Pool(2016). Godrich wrote: "Making this album was a very intense experience for me. I lost my dad in the process. Hence a large piece of my soul lives here in a good way."[13]Godrich provided sound design forKid A Mnesia Exhibition(2021), an interactive experience created for the anniversary ofKid AandAmnesiac.[14]

In 2006,CBCdescribed Godrich's collaboration with Radiohead as "the most adventurous band-producer partnership in modern rock".[3]He has been dubbed the band's "sixth member", an allusion toBeatlesproducerGeorge Martinbeing called the "fifth Beatle".[3]Godrich also plays Chieftain Mews, a long-running character who appears in Radiohead's promotional material.[15]

Side projects[edit]

Godrich has produced most of the solo work by the Radiohead singer,Thom Yorke,including his albumsThe Eraser(2006),Tomorrow's Modern Boxes(2014)[16]andAnima(2019).[17]Yorke credits Godrich with helping edit his work, identifying which parts need improvement and which have potential. He gave the example of theErasersong "Black Swan", which originally was "a six-minute load of crap, except for this one juicy bit, and [Godrich] goes past and goes, 'That bit. Fuck the rest.' Usually it's something like that."[18]

Godrich said: "When we were in a room when it's with Radiohead... I'm trying to manage a relationship between [Yorke] and the band and it's me butting heads with him and trying to work on behalf of the band. As soon as he and I were alone, we found that the dynamic was completely different, we were pulling in the same direction and it was incredibly productive."[19]

In 2009, to perform songs fromThe Eraser,Godrich and Yorke formedAtoms for Peace,with Godrich on guitar, keyboards and synthesisers. The band also includes the bassistFleaof theRed Hot Chili Peppers,the drummerJoey WaronkerofBeckandR.E.M.,and the percussionistMauro RefoscoofForro in the Dark.[20]Their debut album,Amok,produced by Godrich, was released in 2013,[21][22]followed by a tour of Europe, the US and Japan.[23]Godrich engineeredJunun,a 2015 album by the Radiohead guitaristJonny Greenwood,the Israeli composerShye Ben Tzurand the Indian ensemble the Rajasthan Express, recorded atMehrangarh FortinRajasthan,India.[24]

Godrich producedA Light for Attracting Attention(2022), the debut album by theSmile,a band comprising Yorke, Greenwood and the drummerTom Skinner.[25]TheGuardiancriticAlexis Petridissaid the Smile "sound like a simultaneously more skeletal and knottier version of Radiohead", exploring moreprogressive rockinfluences with unusualtime signatures,complex riffs and "hard-driving"motorikpsychedelia.[26]Godrich mixedJarak Qaribak,a 2023 album by Greenwood and the Israeli rock musicianDudu Tasaa.[27]

Other projects[edit]

Following his success withOK Computer,Godrich mixed most ofNatalie Imbruglia's hit albumLeft of the Middle(1997)[3]andR.E.M.'sUp(1998).[3]Godrich produced three albums by the American singer-songwriterBeck:Mutations(1998),Sea Change(2002) andThe Information(2006). The first two, particularlySea Change,were noted for their atmospheric folk/pop sound, a departure from the spontaneous,sample-heavy style Beck was known for.[citation needed]

Godrich produced several albums byTravis,including their commercial breakthrough,The Man Who(1999), and its followup,The Invisible Band(2001).[3]According to the Travis songwriter,Fran Healy,Godrich was frustrated after the gruelling sessions for Radiohead's albumsKid AandAmnesiac,and so "took it out on us because he couldn't take it out on Radiohead".[28]The mood settled after an argument.[28]Healy felt it was good for Godrich to work with "melodic" bands such as Travis as well as more experimental acts such as Radiohead.[28]Godrich co-produced theTravisalbumsThe Boy With No Name(2007) withBrian EnoandMike Hedges.[citation needed]

Godrich producedPavement's final album,Terror Twilight(1999), with Radiohead'sJonny Greenwoodcontributing harmonica on two tracks.[29]Godrich, a fan of the band, hoped to help them find a bigger audience with a less "sloppy" record.[30]SongwriterStephen Malkmuslater described the album as "overproduced" and described conflicts with Godrich.[31]In response, Godrich tweeted: "I literally slept on a friend's floor in NYC to be able to make that album."[31]In 2020, Godrich said that he loved the album and had enjoyed making it.[31]

In 2001, GodrichremixedU2's "Walk On"for its single release, and mixed and contributed production toAir's albumsTalkie Walkie(2004) andPocket Symphony(2007).[citation needed]In 2002, Godrich was hired to produce the second album by theStrokes,Room on Fire(2003). He was fired when their work, according to the band, proved "soulless".[32]Godrich said of the failed collaboration: "The problem there was that me and [singerJulian Casablancas] are just too similar, we're both control freaks. He wanted to do it his way, I wanted to do it my way, and obviously that's the point of me being there. And I'm saying 'Well, why am I here if you're not prepared to try and do it the way I want to do it?' We got on great, it was just one of those laughable things where it just doesn't work. I wanted them to change, and they didn't. "[33]

Godrich produced the 20th-anniversary version of "Do They Know It's Christmas?",released in December 2004, which featured Yorke and Greenwood.[34]Paul McCartneyhired Godrich to produce his albumChaos and Creation in the Backyard(2005) after being recommended byBeatlesproducerGeorge Martin.Godrich fired McCartney's touring band and demanded that McCartney abandon songs Godrich found clichéd, over-sentimental, or subpar.[3][35]The album was nominated for severalGrammy Awards,includingAlbum of the Year,and Godrich was nominated forProducer of the Year.[3]

In 2010, Godrich and Beck composed the score forScott Pilgrim vs. the World,Godrich's first film work.[36]In October 2012, Godrich, along withJoey Waronkerand singerLaura Bettinson,released an album asUltraísta.In 2015, he produced the live albumRoger Waters: The Wall,[37]and made a cameo as aStormtrooperinStar Wars: The Force Awakens.[38]He mixed theRed Hot Chili Peppers' eleventh studio album,The Getaway(2016).[39]Godrich produced the fifth solo album byRoger Waters,Is This the Life We Really Want?,released in June 2017.[40]Godrich, a fan of Waters' work withPink Floyd,was critical of Waters' previous solo work and felt his role as producer was to "encourage him, to push him a little bit".[41]During theCOVID-19 pandemic,Godrich worked with theArcade Firein isolation inEl Paso, Texas,producing their albumWe(2022).[42]

From the Basement(2006–2009)[edit]

In September 2006, it was announced that Godrich, along with producer Dilly Gent, producer James Chads and John Woollcombe, were shooting the music seriesFrom the Basement,filmed from London'sMaida Vale Studios.[43]The series focused on intimate, live performances by musicians without a host or an audience. Godrich said, "I'm really interested to capture some really iconic, bigger names– really the whole point is to get people who are having their moment, to try and get a definitive record of what they're doing."[44]

Godrich conceivedFrom the Basementas a means of authentically documenting music being made. Drawing further inspiration from British television music seriesThe Old Grey Whistle Test,Godrich came upon the idea of a television programme. Despite early reports,From the Basementdid not initially appear on British television, because of not taking on corporate sponsors.[44]

When the pilot was in production,From the Basementwas to be an online programme only. However, this was not feasible as it did not generate enough money to produce the episodes to the quality level desired. Instead, the producers went to international TV networks to receive money up front to produce the series.[45]The series did eventually air on television; the first UK broadcast was onSky Artson 1 December 2007, featuring four songs performed byThom Yorkeon 8 December 2007.[46][47]The United States premiere was on Rave HD on 22 February 2008, followed by a run onIndependent Film Channel,as part of the network's "Automat" block of television programmes in the autumn of 2008.[48]On 3 November 2008, the series was released on DVD.[49]A new series ofFrom the Basementbegan on YouTube in May 2022, featuring acts includingIdles,WarpaintandCaribou.[50]

Approach and influences[edit]

Godrich credited the producersPhil Thornalley,John LeckieandSteve Lillywhitefor teaching him his craft, saying they were "people I watched directly and emulated".[1]He named his "heroes" as theBeatlesproducerGeorge Martin,for "inventing the job", andTrevor Horn,for being "the thing that really made me sit up and listen".[33]He saidJoni Mitchellwas his favourite artist, citing her "unique combination of musical and lyrical talent".[1]

Godrich said that although he enjoys listening to "clinical" and "shiny" music, he works best creating "organic" sounds: "Making a dark brown soup was more my skill, [rather] than making a big fairy cake."[33]He does not approach acts he produces; instead, he waits for them to contact him, as "I'm not under any illusion that I can improve someone I'm already a fan of".[1]

Godrich said he believes people place too much emphasis on studio equipment and "trickery", which is less important than musical sensibility and communication. He said: "I get very annoyed with people asking me what my favourite microphone is. It doesn't matter... One of the reasons why music has become generally worse, and I'm sorry to say that, is that people think about technology more than the actual music they're making."[1]He feels that "the recording process is best when fast, because it's then the smallest obstacle to the actual music".[1]
