49. Miguel Atwood-Ferguson: One Man Orchestra, Flying Lotus, Thundercat, Composing, Conducting, Les Jardins Mystiques Vol 1, Anderson .Paak, Smokey Robinson
Episode 49 is with the incredible composer, conductor, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist, Miguel Atwood Ferguson. We delve into Miguel's extensive career, having participated in over 600 recordings and 2,500 shows. He shares key insights from these experiences and his role in the next legendary LA movement alongside talents like Thundercat, Kamasi Washington, Flying Lotus and Terrace Martin.
Miguel recounts the artist's journey—meeting Thundercat for the first time, their collaboration, and the lessons learned along the way. We get a glimpse into his approach to blending classical music with hip-hop and working with icons such as Flying Lotus and Anderson .Paak. From arranging over Flying Lotus' music to performing with the Metropole Orkest and doing strings on Anderson .Paak & Smokey Robinson’s “Make It Better,” he reveals the intricacies of handling entrepreneurship as a musician, the process of becoming a "one-man orchestra," and how budgets impact the execution of creative ideas.
We also touch on his personal life—being a dad, lessons from his solo album "Les Jardins Mystiques Vol.1," and his experiences performing alongside legends like Henry Mancini, Quincy Jones, and John Williams. This enlightening conversation offers a deeper understanding of the role of a conductor, the importance of getting your work credited as a writer, and the transformative power of music across genres. Tune in to hear how Miguel continues to inspire and shape his musical world.
