Explore every episode of the podcast Audionautic | Covering the Latest in Music Production, Marketing and Technology

This week, we’re talking about the subtle growth that happens over years of making music:the things we’ve quietly improved at without really noticing.From trusting our ears more, to simplifying workflows, finishing tracks more naturally, and becoming more comfortable creatively, this episode is about the small changes that shape us over time as producers and musicians.A more honest conversation about music production, creativity, and the reality of being stuck.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerThere's a new compilation out, it deserves your attention:https://music.bonkwave.org/the-four-seasons-of-bonkwave-autumn-waves-2/Join the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/KJHkz3b4SSunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we revisit the story of Native Instruments following the announcement that the company is being acquired by inMusic.After insolvency proceedings earlier this year, the future of Native Instruments, iZotope, Plugin Alliance and Brainworx appeared uncertain. Now, a new chapter begins.We discuss:What this acquisition means for musiciansThe importance of Native Instruments’ legacyThe growing consolidation of music technology companiesWhether software ecosystems are becoming too important to failThen in our round robin segment:“What’s something you wish someone had told you earlier about music production?”A reflective discussion on growth, mistakes, creativity and the realities of learning to make music over time.Join the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/8FpkdFmx6Sunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we’re diving into the new features in Ableton Live 12.4 with a live demo and discussion.We’ll be exploring:Link Audio for real-time collaboration over local networksImprovements to Stem SeparationUpdates to Erosion, Chorus-Ensemble and DelayThe new Learn View systemWorkflow changes across Push, Move and NoteWe’re less interested in reading release notes and more interested in asking:How useful are these tools in actual music-making situations?Join us as we test features, experiment live, and discuss where Ableton continues to push the platform.There's new music on Triplicate Records, check it out:https://jonnyfallout.bandcamp.com/album/the-subconsciousJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/A5XNK9JFQSunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we’re looking at a new update from YouTube that allows creators to replace copyrighted music with AI-generated tracks.On the surface, it solves a real problem. Content stays live, claims are resolved, and the process is faster than ever.But what does this mean if you’re the one making the music?We shift the conversation away from creators and toward musicians, exploring what happens when music becomes something that can be instantly swapped, replaced, and abstracted into “vibe” rather than identity.This isn’t about AI replacing artists. It’s about what happens when there’s no longer a need to engage with them at all.There's New Music on Shady Ridge Records, check it out:https://rsndrone.bandcamp.com/album/perpetuity-1Join the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/A5XNK9JFQ

Not every session works.This week we talk about what actually happens when nothing is clicking in the studio. The moments where ideas don’t land, progress stalls, and you’re left wondering whether to push through or walk away.Do you try to fix it, or start again?Do bad sessions mean something’s wrong, or are they just part of the process?A more honest conversation about music production, creativity, and the reality of being stuck.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerThis beautiful Compilation Deserves your attention:https://dustopianfrequencies.bandcamp.com/album/celebrating-the-bat-chapter-2-into-the-nightJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/8FpkdFmx6Sunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we sit down after a full month with the MPC Sample to ask a simple question: what actually holds up once the novelty wears off?We compare it directly with the Roland SP-404MKII, exploring workflow, sampling approaches, creative limitations, and how each device shapes the way you make music.This isn’t a spec breakdown. It’s a conversation about lived experience: what feels fast, what feels inspiring, and where friction starts to appear.After that, we move into a round robin discussion:What’s one thing you’d like to unlearn in your DAW workflow?A conversation about habits, defaults, and the things we carry long after they’ve stopped serving us.Join the discussion in our Discord and let us know:MPC or SP? And what are you trying to unlearn?Willebrant has a new EP out, check it here:https://willebrant.bandcamp.com/album/castel-epThanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/8FpkdFmx6Sunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we’re taking a deep dive into some of the most underrated free plugins from u-he.

We’re exploring Triple Cheese, Podolski, and the Tyrell N6, three very different instruments that cover everything from physical modelling to virtual analog and modular-style synthesis.

These plugins have been around for years, but still hold up incredibly well across modern DAWs. We’re putting them to the test, demonstrating their sound, workflow, and asking why tools like these are often overlooked in today’s plugin landscape.

Are free plugins being underestimated?

Semiotic Ghosts has a new album out, you should check it out:

This week we’re discussing the acquisition of Elektron by Bonnier Capital.Elektron says operations, products, and team structure will remain unchanged, with the goal of supporting long-term growth and expansion. But as we’ve seen across the industry, acquisitions often play out over time rather than immediately.We explore what this could mean for Elektron’s identity, product direction, and community, and whether this is a positive step forward or something to watch closely.Known Artiste has a new Album out, check it here:https://knownartiste.bandcamp.com/album/--21Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/ttuPYrcDSunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we’re discussing the growing issue of AI-generated deepfake music on streaming platforms.Sony Music claims to have removed over 135,000 tracks impersonating real artists, with major names already affected. These AI-generated songs are designed to mimic artists and take advantage of attention during release cycles.We unpack what this means for musicians, listeners, and the future of music platforms. Is this just the beginning of a much larger problem?Check out Kh3rtis' new album, 'In the Wake of Light' here:https://kh3rtis.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-wake-of-lightThanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/63SkhVZrSunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we’re taking a look at the new Akai MPC Sample, a portable standalone sampler that brings the classic MPC workflow into a compact, modern format.With built-in battery, speaker, sampling, sequencing, and performance effects, MPC Sample is designed as an all-in-one creative tool for making music anywhere. But where does it actually sit in today’s landscape?We compare it to devices like the Roland SP-404MKII and Teenage Engineering EP-133 K.O. II, and explore whether this is a serious production tool, a sketchpad, or something in between.Is this the sweet spot for modern beatmaking, or just another box in an already crowded space?Pre-order Kh3rtis' - 'In the Wake of Light' here:https://kh3rtis.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-wake-of-lightThanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/uTRbCmCjSunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week’s episode is a round robin conversation about the things we overcomplicate in the studio.Kick drums. Arrangement. Mix bus processing. Sound design. Workflow. We all have areas where we spiral — adding layers, tweaking endlessly, chasing perfection, or solving problems that didn’t exist in the first place.We’re unpacking why we do it, when complexity helps, and when it quietly holds us back.Sometimes improving isn’t about learning more. It’s about doing less.Join us for a thoughtful (and slightly confessional) discussion about creative overthinking in music production.Lars has a new single, check it here:https://errorpronerecords.bandcamp.com/album/completely-incoherent-dreamsThanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/uTRbCmCjSunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we’re exploring the most overrated advice in music production.Not bad advice. Not wrong advice. Just ideas that might be over-repeated, oversimplified, or applied without context.From “use reference tracks” to “you need analog warmth,” “limit yourself,” and “finish everything,” we’re unpacking why certain producer mantras stick — and when they genuinely help versus when they quietly hold us back.Sometimes growth isn’t about new plugins or new gear. It’s about re-examining the creative rules we’ve absorbed along the way.Join us for a round robin conversation about nuance, context, and finding your own working philosophy.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/uTRbCmCjSunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.comTIMESTAMPS

Ableton Live 12.4 is now in public beta, and this update is all about refinement, collaboration, and deeper workflow improvements.This week we break down Link Audio and what real time audio streaming between devices actually means for producers. We also explore the updated Erosion device, improvements to Chorus Ensemble and Delay, refinements to Stem Separation, and the new Learn View that replaces the classic Help panel.Is this a small quality of life update, or does Link Audio quietly change how we collaborate and jam in the studio?Join us as we unpack what matters, what feels incremental, and what could shape the next phase of Live.Stilhed has a new Album on the way, check it out here!https://stilhed.bandcamp.com/album/aeralisThanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/FJ3KfCN7Sunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we’re exploring Strum Plate by Gulf Coast Synthesis, a free MIDI effect that separates what you play from when you play it.Inspired by the touchplate interface of the Omnichord, Strum Plate lets you hold chords with one hand while manually strumming notes into existence using a mouse or pitch wheel. It’s less about precision and more about feel, gesture, and discovering new musical behaviours.Rather than reviewing features, this episode is about experimentation. We’ll be pairing Strum Plate with different synths and sounds, pushing it in unexpected directions, and seeing what kinds of rhythms, textures, and performance ideas emerge along the way.If you’re curious about alternative MIDI workflows, playful sound design tools, or finding inspiration in free plugins, this one’s for you.Check out the Strum Plate Here:https://www.gulfcoastsynthesis.com/strum-plate.htmlLars Haur has a new track out.

This week we’re unpacking two very different sides of the music technology world.First, we look at the news surrounding Native Instruments entering preliminary insolvency proceedings. We break down what’s actually happening, what it means for musicians who rely on NI tools, and why this is more about financial structure than failing products.Then we shift gears into a post NAMM 2026 roundtable, sharing the gear releases that genuinely caught our attention. No hype cycles, no shopping lists, just thoughtful reactions to what felt meaningful, useful or creatively interesting this year.As always, this is an open discussion about tools, industry shifts and how we navigate them as working musicians.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/Sunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week we’re diving into Zebra 3 from U-He, exploring why it remains one of the most deep and flexible software synthesizers available today. Rather than a feature checklist, this episode is about discovery, approach and what it feels like to work inside a truly modular synth environment.We’ll talk through Zebra 3’s oscillators, spectral shaping, modulation system and sound design philosophy, focusing on how its design encourages intentional exploration rather than preset hopping. From subtle movement and organic textures to complex evolving sounds, Zebra 3 rewards time spent listening and experimenting.Along the way we reflect on what makes a synth feel inspiring in long term use, how depth can coexist with clarity, and why tools like Zebra 3 continue to resonate with sound designers and musicians years after their release.If you enjoy slower, more thoughtful discussions about synthesis and creative process, this one’s for you.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/Sunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This week’s episode is about want vs need.We explore the internal dialogue that shows up when we feel the urge to buy new gear, plugins, or software. Where does that desire come from? Is it curiosity, FOMO, comparison, or a genuine creative requirement?We talk about:Recognizing the difference between wanting and needingWhen a purchase actually makes senseSocial media influence and comparisonPractical ways to pause, reflect, and detach from impulsive buyingGiving yourself permission to need something without guiltA thoughtful conversation about intention, creativity, and staying connected to why we make music in the first place.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/Sunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

We’re back for our first show of 2026.In this episode, we ease into the new year by reflecting on the winter break. We share what we got up to, highlight a few poignant moments in the studio, and talk about how time away shaped our thinking about music and creativity.We also look ahead to the year to come. Not resolutions, but intentions. What we’re excited about, what we want to protect, and how we hope to approach our creative lives moving forward.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/Sunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

This is our final episode before the winter break, so we’re taking a moment to look back.In this end of year retrospective, we reflect on our creative highlights, personal achievements, and the moments that shaped our musical year. From releases and conversations to lessons learned and unexpected wins, this episode is about acknowledging progress and sharing gratitude.No announcements, no hype, just a thoughtful conversation about creativity, growth, and what it means to keep showing up.Thank you to everyone who listened, joined the discussions, and supported the show this year.

This week we sit down with long-time Audionaut, patron, and ambient architect Survey Channel, diving deep into his new release Ecomediums — a sonic journey built from repurposed media, intuitive construction, and a fractured digital consciousness.Ecomediums questions the validity of repurposing art and media. Using fragments of MIDI, samples, layered ambient synthetics, and a (mis)guided intuition, Survey Channel creates an uninterrupted drift through a distorted digital “elsewhere” just beyond today’s technological distractions.We talk about:The philosophy behind repurposing artInspiration and conceptual underpinningsHis production workflowThe idea of the “economically creative”How fragments, leftovers, and recovered media can form something newJoin us for a deep, thoughtful conversation.Check out 'Ecomediums' here: https://surveychannel.bandcamp.com/album/ecomediumsThanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/Sunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

Ableton Live 12.3 is here and we are breaking down everything in the new update. From Stem Separation and Splice integration to new workflow tools like Bounce Groups, Paste Bounced Audio and Device A B, we look at which features matter and how they might change your music making.This week we are joined by a guest host who is not an Ableton user, so expect real debate about whether this update pushes Live forward or simply keeps it competitive.We explore the creative additions like the updated Auto Pan Tremolo, new expressive tools for Push, the Generators pack by Iftah and improvements to MIDI sequencing and chord editing.With Live, Push and Move currently on sale, we also ask the big question.

This week we are not doing the usual Black Friday deal roundup.Instead we are taking a step back and talking honestly about something that affects all of us. GAS. Gear lust. The constant temptation to buy more just because everything is on sale.So today we are doing the opposite of a deal guide.We are talking about what we already have, why Black Friday plays on our insecurities as artists, and how to recognise when a purchase actually solves a real problem versus when it is just another distraction.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/DugxMMZsSunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com00:00 - Intro02:00 - What We’re Up To14:00 - Why Black Friday Hits Us So Hard25:00 - The Difference Between Want vs Need32:00 - What Do We Actually Use?50:00 - Resisting GAS as a Community75:00 - The Psychology of Sales (FOMO, Scarcity, Identity)

This week we’re continuing our Artist Spotlight series with Sunwarper and his new album Today’s Traces: a meditative, ambient journey through memory, impermanence, and the emotional residue of everyday life.Today’s Traces captures the moments that slip between the bigger milestones, those fleeting in-between spaces that define who we are.

Roland is back with the TR-1000 Rhythm Creator, their first true-analog drum machine in over 40 years, and maybe their most advanced yet.It blends the warmth of classic 808 and 909 circuits with ACB models, FM percussion, sampling tools, and a powerful hybrid sequencer. We dig into what makes this machine such a big moment for Roland and how it fits into the modern beat-making landscape.Then in our Round Robin discussion, we ask a bigger question: Has hardware innovation hit a wall?With so many remakes and retro re-issues, are manufacturers truly pushing forward — or are we just stuck chasing nostalgia?Join us for a deep dive into the TR-1000 and a candid chat about where hardware creativity goes next.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/Kr4CrthQSunwarper: https://sunwarper.com​​​​​​Kh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com

Last week we dug into the Elektron Tonverk, its quirks and what it's 'missing', which got us thinking: are hardware limitations actually a blessing in disguise?This week we’re celebrating the ways limitations push creativity forward, spark new ideas, and keep music-making fun.

This week we’re checking out the brand new Elektron Tonverk, a next-gen polyphonic multisampler and audio processor that’s shaking up the groovebox world. We’ll break down the specs, features, and how it compares to other Elektron gear like the Digitakt and Octatrack.Then we shift gears into a bigger question: why even bother releasing music anymore? With streaming platforms paying fractions of a cent and artists struggling to monetise their work, is “release culture” still worth it?

As independent musicians, one of the hardest parts of releasing music today isn’t just making the songs, it’s figuring out where to put our energy.Do we spend more time prepping the release for streaming platforms? Or do we focus on social media, where the algorithms demand constant content?

For the past few weeks we've been exploring inspiration and the creative mind. One understated form of Music Production is that of Generative Music, a world where a single piece of MIDI data can form entire compositions with the right parameters. To aid us in the exploration of this world we welcome Mike K Smith to the show, friend, patron and fellow producer who's just released his own body of work on Generative Music and it's unique qualities.

We're a sucker for a kickstarter, always rooting for the grassroots initiatives. As the new Wunderkammer WoO.1 enters the market, we're left wondering whether the world needs another sampler, what does this lil' guy offer? Well we're breaking it down.

In the Round Robin, we're looking at relinquishing control in the studio and allowing for happy accidents to manifest themselves, how does this happen and how can we integrate them into our studio time?

The great thing about our music production journey is that we are constantly evolving and finessing the way in which we create the art we make.

Sometimes we have those light bulb moments, those times of 'a-ha!' where something clicks and it forever changes the way in which we look at HOW me make music.

In this episode, we are sharing and discussing our own.

In the modern world, it is every increasingly easy to get caught up in what your fellow muso is doing. How they are presenting themselves in comparison to yourself; as well as what they are making or using. This can lead to a closing down where we don't think we're 'good' enough, or 'talented' enough - among other things - to continue on our sonic adventures.

In this episode we talk about that and meditate on ways to move through that block

In this very special episode of ADSN we sit down with Frequency Control Centre in the wake of his new album drop to discuss the intricacies of his workflow, inspirations and journey as a musician. The talk touches on the topics of evolution as a musician and growing into your own way with confidence and a staunch resilience for your own sound and path.
