Earlier this morning, we gave The Current's debut of Beck's new song, "Dreams." The track was produced by Los Angeles-based Greg Kurstin.
It turns out that the 46-year-old Kurstin could be described as a superproducer, having produced tracks by numerous artists, including many favorites of The Current's listeners: Lily Allen, Tegan and Sara, the Shins, Har Mar Superstar, Sia, KT Tunstall, Foster the People, Lana Del Rey, Lykke Li, Billy Idol and others. Kurstin has also produced pop stars like Katy Perry and Kelly Clarkson. You can view Kurstin's complete production discography on Wikipedia.
