Brent Godin's exposure to music started at birth. His father would play records and cassettes everyday on his stereo system ranging from Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, to Frank Sinatra and Mannheim Steamroller. Though Brent's interest in music would not fully blossom until his teen years, all his early experiences with a wide variety of artists and styles of music would have a great impact on his musical sensibilities and his innate musical talent.

Brent's first venture into the world of music started when he was 9 years old and took up the alto saxophone in the middle school concert band. He would continue with that until the end of middle school, when he decided that saxophone was not the instrument for him. At age 13, Brent and some buddies from school decided to start a rock band. He asked his mother very nicely, and she bought him his first bass guitar (a Washburn XB -100, that he still owns and plays to this day). He went to his local book store, bought a couple "teach yourself" bass guitar manuals and learned how to play. During this time, Brent realised he had the ability to play songs by ear and tried to master every song he could. Though his band with his friends inevitably fizzled out,

Brent continued playing music on his on time, and would pick up the electric guitar at age 15 to further challenge himself musically (and to learn how to play awesome solos to show off). In 2003 Brent started another band with some other friends from high school. That band would become Taste of Chains, which still exists to this day and is making music and play shows (www.tasteofchains.com). In this time he would really hone his guitar playing skills, and would develop as a songwriter. He learned what structures work for songs, and he learned how to collaborate with other musicians. In 2005 when the band really started to get off the ground, Brent was exposed for the first time to the art of sound engineering. Taste of Chain's Bassist, (now Lead Vocalist/Bassist) Mike Lachance's dad did some engineering as a hobby and was willing to come down to the bands practice space to lay down some tracks that would become the bands first demo. This experience opened Brent's eyes to a whole new world of music. It wasn't long after that Brent decided to pursue this as his future career.



Brent studied at New England Tech for Video/Radio Production where he first started developing his skills as an engineer. He also did some experimental recording on his own time with Taste of Chains band mate Dan Newman. Through trial and error he learned what work in recording and what didn't (in some cases the lessons were learned more painfully than others). In 2009 Brent purchased his own recording equipment and a laptop installed with Cubase Studio 5 and began his own mobile recording studio called Last Post Records.

He would record and produce all his bands releases, and has also worked with such bands as Words to Live By, Suicide Marys, Evil Autumn, Mark the Way, and Hammer n' Harmony. In late 2010, Brent started working on a degree from the Audio Institute of America to further expand his knowledge of the recording arts. Brent is now a Producer/Talent Scout for BCP, where he continues to develop as a producer and is expanding into new territories of the music industry.
