Weekly EP

EP 20: Miss Nöyd - I Dunno

This is Episode 20 with Miss Nöyd, aka Bente Lorentzen, currently from here in Berlin, Germany. Bente and I talk about finding new ways to approach music from a child like, carefree way. Meaning having fun and not really caring what anyone else thinks. This seems like a pretty good way to approach music in general, to me. We also talk about how playing live is so valuable to writing music and what that's going to look like going forward.

EP 19 - Summer Holiday Comp Vol. 2

I'm still on holiday this week, exploring southern German beer gardens and beautiful picturesque streets. BUT luckily this is The Summer Holiday Comp Vol. 2. In just a moment you'll hear a few songs each from eight awesome past guests here on Weekly EP. Think of it sort of like a playlist, even though this podcast is normally the opposite of a playlist. Well, I'm not actually such what's technically the opposite of a playlist. But anywho, let's get into it.

EP 13 - with guest Violet's Gone from Northampton, England.

EP 18: Summer Holiday Comp Vol. 1

Over the next two weeks Weekly EP will be on a summer holiday. Lauren and I are finally checking out a bit more of the small cities and towns outside of Berlin and so that means there won't be any new guests until August. BUT I figured this was a good opportunity to showcase the amazing guests we've had the privilege of featuring and interviewing so far. So this week we'll feature two or three songs from eight previous guest musicians.

EP 17: Gonghi (Giovanni Fiderio) - Gonghi

EP 16: Elisa Flynn - Eighty Three

This is Episode 16 with Elisa Flynn, from Brooklyn, New York in the US. Elisa was super easy to talk to and I really dig where she got the inspiration for the songs on her album this week. We talk about the Tom Cruise movie Legend, vampires, kate bush, trying to write slightly less depressing songs, and wonder if the beats that come with Garageband should just be considered fair use at this point.

EP 15: Clayton Eddy - Summer Feels

This is Episode 15 with Clayton Eddy, from Rochester, NY in the US. Clayton is in a two person group called Buffalo Sexchange and the other member, Phil, aka Beef Gordon, who was our very first guest on the show. So I was super happy to get Clayton on here. It turns out this was Clayton's first go at digital multi-track recording his own music but you wouldn't know it (we get into his somewhat practical, but I think unusual recording method later). We also talk about motorcycle sidecars, recording vs live performances and trying to write timeless songs during a pandemic.

Ep 14: Hali Palombo - Hell

This is Episode 14 with Hali Palombo, from Chicago, Illinois in the US. The record Hali has made, that you're about to hear, is one of the more interesting and experimental we've had so far and I love it. And I love it even more now, knowing how it was made. Hint, international radio stations were involved. My wife and I have one radio in our apartment that we pretty much only use to occasionally listen to Klassik Radio, a 24h classic music station, while cooking here in Berlin. But that radio can't do what what Hali's many radios can.

EP 13: Violet's Gone - Maybrain

This is Episode 13 with Violet's Gone, aka Chris Fordham, from Northampton, England. Chris came to the podcast by way of our guests from episode 8, and we talk about a range of good stuff including color perception, philosophy, who you should be writing music for, and Chris talks about how doing an album in a week has given him a whole new energetic push to finish a full length he's been working on for over a year.

EP 12: Dr. Burtrum - HOUSE SPECIAL MIX EP

This is Episode 12 with Dr. Burtrum, aka Dylan Henderson, from New York City. Dylan made a very good, and I think accessible, electronic dance record that you'll really enjoy. We also talk about the interesting new school old school way Dyland recorded this record, and a good amount about synths. As a result I think I'm getting closer and closer to getting another one... 

As always we'll do a short intro, listen to the new record in full, and then dive into the creative process.

EP 11: A-E-I-O-U (Lauren Piper) - Something Like This

This is Episode 11 with Lauren Piper, of AEIOU, (pronounced vowels), from Berlin, Germany. We talk a lot about how little accidents in recording can lead to fun song structures, and making the shift from live recording with a loop pedal to home recording. Also, a little disclaimer, Lauren and I happen to be married, so the interview gets a bit silly at times. Album starts at 4:58

////Tracklisting:////
---- 1. Isolation
---- 2. Destruction
---- 3. Inhalation
---- 4. Desperation
---- 5. Triumph
---- 6. Get There
