Audible Brutality Podcast

Adam and Tim have a top notch chat with talented Canadian singer and songwriter Caroline Brooks, one third of the Juno award winning group The Good Lovelies. We discuss songwriting techniques, being a parent who tours, women in production and more! What can we say, she's awesome, and we're glad she was able to really class up our podcast with her experience and insights.

Back from summer good times, Adam and Tim are back at it in episode 7, shooting the shit about music and radio, getting music on radio, and the generally poor state of broadcast advertising. Oh, and pizza!

Tired of not having enough constructive comments in your musical life? Then listen up! Straight from their own armchairs, Adam and Tim serve notice on the phenomenon of armchair commentary within music and production communities online. We talk a few tips and tricks too, like how building your own wall traps is an easy and inexpensive way to improve your room for tracking and mix.

Tim and Adam interview Canadian electronic / EBM musician and producer Gord Clement aka nTTx. We talk gear, live shows, influences, the light side of music promotion, and the dangers of being pigeonholed within a genre - It's a banger!  Oh, and for good measure we cover the topic of why it's not a good idea to listen with your eyes (just listen to the episode, it'll make sense, we promise).

Tim and Adam discuss the role of social media in promoting music, and the pitfalls artists often fall into, why shitty is so pretty, dealing with band dynamics, and why Radio Shack mics rule.

Adam and Tim dig into their own song dirt, talk cheap ass studio trickery involving sponges and pencils, why buying your own mic for gigs is probably something you want to do, dream up soundtracks to movie sequels that never happened for inspiration, and why it's so damn important to back up your shit.

A few artists we talk about:

Johnny Coull
Old Savannah!
 

Our first episode! In these times of Covid 19 Tim and Adam run the gamut and ask tough questions, like 'who is this Art guy we should be looking at?' We also discuss the evolution of electronic music, why disco is awesome, Neil Peart ≠ folk music, and declare there's nothing superfluous about death metal. Not a bad start for a pair of disgruntled old musician producer types...

Hey, we're Adam and Tim - two grouchy musicians and producers who humorously complain about the state of music today. You could say we're the Statler and Waldorf of musical podcasts!
