| #002 - The Story of Stay Cool & seangran (Podcast Intro) | 29 sept. 2025 | 00:52:43 | |
Who is Seán, the host of The MP3.WAV and what is Stay Cool? These are the questions you might be asking following our first episode with Khalil. Now that the podcast's out I answer these questions and detail my unique journey as a creative through music, design and live-streaming, all the while explaining why my perspective and background are well suited to the purpose of the podcast. That is to say, looking at how the Blog & SoundCloud eras influenced music and culture today and where both are heading as AI and technology impact the industry. I’ve got a whole presentation this time round, so I suggest watching the video version. Expect random stories about that Wii commercial I was in (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cWOPf--igU), that one time Freddie Gibbs bumped into my laptop while I was DJing and more as I chronicle my story with an extended Pecha Kucha. — Seán ♫ Intro by https://instagram.com/junyii • Outro by https://instagram.com/bengfang | |||
