A podcast covering all things related to music production: from the first note to the last fan and everything in between.  We create music and inspire others to do the same.  Every episode is a live business meeting between me and Dan (me and Keith) as we build this media empire right before your very eyes/ears.

In this episode we discuss:


Today we just chat and catch up on what we’ve been doing musically.  Personal musical updates.

Dan owns an Eric Johnson signature fuzz face pedal.  He is trying to sell it.

We’re not going to talk about shoelaces this time.

My (Keith’s) personal musical update is centered around my dream of being able to play Jazz.  I have always sucked at Jazz.  I’ve been doing this on our R&D Channel Oliver’s Musical Genius.  I currently take lessons with Jordan Klemons.  I go over how Jordan helped me arrange my song Margaret for solo Jazz guitar.  The last part of this project was to arrange the song in a bebop style.  The song was originally a pop-punk song.  We didn’t know what was going to happen when we tried to superimpose bebop harmony onto this song but we were surprised to find out that the song is strangely similar to the first 8 bars of a Bird Blues.

Philosophically, we decided that music exists on a continuum where bebop could be a more complex (like a fractal geometry) version of simpler musical form.

Dan’s personal musical update was more on a gear tip.  He talks about how he built a pedal board around the time when we were in Jollyship.  Then he sort of abandoned pedals for bass but started getting into pedals for guitar and built a nice pedal board for guitar.  Now that he is playing an electronica fusion style thing, he needs to get back to cultivating a cool bass pedal board.  He wants to get an octave pedal.  He’s looking at a brand called EBS.  He says he used an octave pedal when we were in Whiz-Bang.

We talk a lot about using affect pedals for guitar and bass, philosophically.  We talk about distortion and tube amps.

The name of Dan’s new band is Element 115.  He is talking about the difference in improvising within more traditional music genres (rock, jazz) versus his new band which is striving for a more electronic feel.  They are experimenting with feeling much longer forms and adding/subtracting textures.


Oliver's Musical Genius

We are not just searching for the perfect jam.

This is not just the channel where I practice for at least 10 minutes on every YouTube video as I progress towards 10,000 hours of public practice.
