By 13 years old he was playing bass guitar in a rock band called Inferno. Later in high school, he also played guitar and sang in a band called The Neo Plastics. In 1983, Diamond graduated from Trenton High School, in Trenton, MI. In 1988, he went on to get a Telecommunications degree (with a minor in music) from Michigan State University. During his college years he sang and played guitar in the "speed gold" band, "The Wayouts".</p> <p>In 1995, after college, Diamond started working at Harvest Music and Sound Design in Lansing, MI. At Harvest Music, Diamond worked on "car commercials and Christian metal," he later remembered. He then moved to Austin, TX and started playing guitar and bass with such bands as the Beatosonics, Herman the German and Das Cowboy.</p> <p>Diamond returned to Detroit and started Ghetto Recorders in the fall of 1996. Diamond was also a longtime member of the popular Detroit band <a href="/web/20170222101731/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dirtbombs" title="The Dirtbombs">The Dirtbombs</a>. Diamond wrote and performed the vocals on the tune "I'm Through With White Girls." The song appears on the Dirtbombs studio album <a href="/web/20170222101731/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dangerous_Magical_Noise" title="Dangerous Magical Noise">Dangerous Magical Noise</a> and the compilation CD <a href="/web/20170222101731/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sympathetic_Sounds_of_Detroit" title="Sympathetic Sounds of Detroit">Sympathetic Sounds of Detroit</a>, which was recorded by <a href="/web/20170222101731/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_White_(musician)" class="mw-redirect" title="Jack White (musician)">Jack White</a>. Diamond had to close Ghetto Recorders in the spring of 2015 as the building was being re purposed into a high end apartment in Detroit's downtown.</p> <p>Diamond currently splits his time between Detroit and Montpellier, France and is still quite active as a music producer, engineer and musician.</p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Ghetto_Recorders">Ghetto Recorders</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/web/20170222101731/https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jim_Diamond_(music_producer)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Ghetto Recorders">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h2> <p>Jim Diamond ran Ghetto Recorders, an analog recording studio in a loft and apartment space in downtown <a href="/web/20170222101731/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit" title="Detroit">Detroit</a>, taking over the recording site and equipment from John Linardos, who went on to help start up the first microbrewery in Detroit.
