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:

A new part of our process is to ask all our prior guests for a referral of one person who they think would be a good guest for the show.

We talk a bit about the fact that podcasts are best when they are candid, free flowing conversations. We do need to build up our interview chops a bit but we also have to lean into the unplanned conversational aspect of podcasting which is the true beauty of it. Podcasting is like the anti-TikTok. It is not a low attention span venture.

We talked about how Dan and I have complementary vibes which work well in the context of co-hosting an interview format podcast.

We talked about the dynamic of shutting up and letting someone else talk.

I updated Dan that I’m actually going to be playing music with actual human beings for the first time in several years. I also updated him on the progress of Olivers Musical Genius and the fact that we have 123 subscribers now.

We talked a bit about the dynamic of our business and the fact that Getcha Some Productions is the top of the funnel but Oliver‘s musical genius is sort of right below it. Everything kind of flows through Oliver‘s Musical Genius. I was saying that my hope is to have subscribers come into Oliver‘s Musical Genius but then have them routed to where their real interest might be to the other brands. Dan rightfully commented that it might be better to just treat Oliver’s Musical Genius like the primary brand since it’s the one getting the most traction and just focus on that and put more energy into that. That was a very good comment. Of course, Oliver’s Musical Genius is its own brand in addition to it being kind of a flow through for all the other brands.

Dan updated me on his band Element 115. They are looking to get a gig at a weed related farmers market. They would share the bill with a Grateful Dead cover band that has common members.  This would be Dan‘s first gig in many many years. He says the band is evolving quite a bit and they’re really falling into a groove with the type of electronic music they play. They also have scaled back their rehearsals to only once per week versus many times per week as they have been going previously.

The only thing is that Dan hasn’t really been paying Bass much lately in the band and he’s mostly playing keyboards now. They are an electronic music band.

One of my favorite things that we talk about is the logistics of Element 115. Since they play electronic music live, the attitude and the sensibilities that you have to have to execute the statement different from traditional organic forms of music.
