It might surprise people to know I was raised on a diet of 70’s new age, Motown and the powerhouse female vocalists my mum was preferable to at the time.
I still listen to Nujabes a lot, Kid koala, DJ Shadow, and Kid Loco are a few hip hop acts I like that I’ve been into since I was young… Most of whom I wouldn't have heard of without my friends at the time.
I like Miyavi and Toe from Japan. I’ve been listening to a lot of them recently…and I love the string arrangements Maya Sakamoto uses…Though I don’t keep up with them much, I’m very impressed by the longevity of the band Scandal, if we’re talking about that part of the world…
Can I shed some light on what I’ve been listening to recently? I don’t really do the whole playlist thing…
Why does everyone want to sound like that guy, or some girl who plays an acoustic, where have all the musical artists who want to sound like themselves gone?
Why is the word different in music often synonymous with the word unlistenable? Like, why do people assume you have to make noise to be different, as though one day your garbage disposal sounds will be appreciated…
I didn't learn the skills I have today because I was expected to have a brand or image, or a lifestyle to sell. Musicians used to only have to worry about making good music, no wonder people comment on a drop in standard.
I started drums to hit stuff, I started guitar to write songs, I learned bass and piano to record without a band, I developed social skills because I got stuck with the mic, I learned music-law to not be taken advantage of, I learned photo editing to make the pics I got taken ok.
Recently it was posted that record labels have lost the ability to nurture new talent, do you think that’s true?
Skill and practice are what make the musician not image and brand.
Anniversary music year: celebrating my 15th year as a gigging, touring, session musician and songwriter.
I know people who think “baby shark” is as competent a piece of music as any great concerto… I can’t convince them otherwise…
What a musician isn’t: -A Jukebox -An IPod - Your Personal Playlist What a musician is: -A Skilled Laborer -A Unique Expressionist -Deserving of the same rights as any other job.
