#17 - Emerging Handpan Organic House Artist with Adel Szirtes

Wednesday, November 29, 2023 • Duration 56:13

This week we are sat down with Adel Szirtes (Organika Sound) - an up and coming handpan and organic house artist from Hungary. Adel is fairly new to the handpan scene but has already started to form a very signature style that we are loving!

Adel tells us the story of how she got into playing handpan and how she linked up with the MAG Instruments Team in Hungary. She also talks about her music influences and which artists have helped shape her unique sound.

She told us all about her first official release - "Amazona" - and her second release - "Fűszál" - before teasing her third track from her upcoming EP. The third song she's gearing up to release is a 20 minute sound bath!

We got to know her a bit better during the rapid fire questions (don't stand in front of her on the train!) and got a crash course lesson on the Hungarian language. (PS: we apologize in advance to all of our Hungarian listeners for our terrible pronouncing of your language!).

She might be new to the handpan universe, but she is already doing amazing things! We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did! For more from Adel Szirtes: IG: @organikasound YouTube: @Organikasound

#16 - MasterTheHandpan News with Dan Mulqueen, David Charrier, and Sylvain Paslier

Wednesday, November 15, 2023 • Duration 53:57

BIG things are happening over at MasterTheHandpan and we HAD to talk about them. MasterTheHandpan Academy is huge news, not only for the three of us (being as we all work on MasterTheHandpan), but for the entire online educational space for handpan students. Until now, there has never been a handpan platform that was so in-depth with so many teachers and courses while also building a thriving community of students. We firmly believe that, even if we didn't work on MasterTheHandpan, we would have still talked about it on the pod! LOL. Usually these "family" episodes are just the two of us (Dan and Dave), but given the news and peek behind the curtain we wanted to give, we were HONORED to have Sylvain Paslier back with us to catch up. In addition to being a fantastic player, Sylvain also handles all of the community outreach at MasterTheHandpan. Before we stopped recording, we answered two big questions from our Instagram audience. First, how we deal with feeling stuck and uninspired and second, how to go about getting booked to play at handpan festivals. Thanks for your continued love and support...we hope you're enjoying these episodes as much as we are!

#15 - From The Stage To The Court Room with David Kuckhermann

Wednesday, November 1, 2023 • Duration 01:16:22

This is NOT an episode to skip! We're sitting down with David Kuckhermann - a handpan player who needs no introduction! David has been a professional percussionist for over 20 years and has been playing handpan since 2012. His album "Path of the Metal Turtle" from 2012 is one of the most iconic handpan albums of all time and he talks us through his path to handpan, what the early days were like, and the process of making this album. Unfortunately, David's handpan world right now isn't all sunshine and rainbows as he finds himself right in the middle of the PANArt VS HCU lawsuits - an incredibly serious issue that could impact the future of the handpan as we all know it. David talks about his initial involvement and role in forming the HCU. He's been in the courtroom and in meetings at every step and we very much appreciated an update from him! He talked about his guilty pleasure music, worst concert experience, biggest pet peeve, and much during our rapid fire questions before talking about his new music, Handpan Dojo (his online teaching platform), and MUCH more! It was an awesome to catch up with David and we hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did!

Wednesday, October 18, 2023 • Duration 01:05:35

There is a very short list of people who can say "I've grown up with the handpan in my lap" - our guest this week is one of them.

Amy Naylor joins the podcast and talks about her life with the handpan. Amy started playing about a decade ago and she's only 26! We hear all about her early days in music and what the decision was like for her to make the handpan her main focus.

She also talks about how she treats live shows and how she holds the attention of an audience like NO OTHER! Amy also weighs in on comments about her being "the best female player" around and which other players she's excited about.

We heard all about her creative process, her incorporation of pop music and handpan playing, her latest album "The Earth Teaches" and MUCH more! She also played our rapid fire game and talked about her biggest pet peeve and most embarrassing moment on stage.

#13 - Looping, Lighting, and Everything in Between with Connor Shafran

Wednesday, October 4, 2023 • Duration 58:20

Our guest this week is Connor Shafran. If you haven't seen or heard Connor's music yet, you're missing out! The compositions are one of a kind and the playing is amazing. Where Connor really separates himself is his use of live looping - more specifically "scripted looping" - which he walks us through on the pod. Connor is a highly educated musician who recently completed his masters thesis in electro-acoustic music. We hear about his background and how he got to the handpan. We talk about the specifics and get some explanation of "how" he does what he does. We also hear about the status about his upcoming music, how he composes, his involvement in Future Rust Records, and MUCH more! We hope you enjoy this podcast as much as we did!

We also heard all about her new album GRISES, which is coming out after her ongoing crowdfunding campaign.

She also told us about her practice routine, her favorite female players, her thoughts about teaching handpan, and MUCH more! Mar Loi also played along with our rapid fire questions before we wrapped up.

We hope you enjoy the episode as much as we did and PLEASE check out Mar Loi's website for all the info about her new album, GRISES, and how you can support her ahead of the release.
