At Beatseeker, we love music and we love games, so combining them in interesting ways is bound to get our attention. Our guest today blurs the lines between music creation and video games and he has even developed an arcade-style ‘Beat Machine’ which puts musical creativity at the centre of any private or public space.
Meet Tim Shaw, AKA Tim Exile, a producer and performer of electronic music spanning drum and bass, IDM, breakcore and gabber. A classically trained violinist, Tim began experimenting with electronic music aged 12 and never looked back. Unsatisfied with the possibilities of conventional DJing, Exile first programmed his own performance tools to allow improvisational live sets. In 2016, he launched Endlesss, a collaborative music-making app inspired by his Flow Machine, which he had previously used in live performances. The Beat Machine is his latest creation. He joins us from his studio in London England.
Check out Endlesss at endlesss.fm/ where you can also discover the Beat Machine. Follow Exile on Twitter: @timexile

If administered correctly, can music be used as medicine? We reached out to a fascinating company called MediMusic for some answers. MediMusic creates individualized playlists that reduce heart rate and influence the Vagus nerve to stimulate a positive physio-endocrine response. The software uses algorithms to automatically create playlists based on a range of academic data on how people consume music –like age, gender and nationality – that prompt a positive physiological and emotional response.
Joining us today is Gary Jones, the CEO and Co-founder of MediMusic. Gary is an award-winning entrepreneur with 30 years of experience in music and content management. Previously, he worked on projects with Sony, Intel, Yahoo, PRS and News International. Gary Jones’s own musical journey began when his uncle bought him a plastic guitar for his 13th birthday in the mid-1970s. Inspired by his musical family, he taught himself how to play, started a school band and began putting gigs and events on in his local area. He joins us from Hull, England.

Ever get the chills when listening to some amazing music? It used to be something that occurred accidentally but is now being engineered by artists and influencers into a more potent form called ASMR.

Our guide to ASMR is Giulia Poerio, an associate lecturer at the University of Sussex. Dr. Poerio is a world-renowned expert on ASMR and was one of the first academics to conduct formal studies on the subject. She joins us from Essex, England.

Music and other media are becoming increasingly globalized. Not so long ago, it was rare to discover music that originated far from your home. But now it’s increasingly easy to discover music, movies and TV shows made anywhere in the world. We now watch shows like the Korean hit Squid Game and listen to Puerto Rican sensation Bad Bunny without giving it much thought.
To explain the rapid globalization of music and culture, we reached Srishti Das in Mumbai. Srishti graduated from Berklee Valencia with a masters degree in music business, and went on to work in different parts of the industry, including as a journalist, teacher and on project teams for various streaming applications.

The pandemic caused many of us to work from home. For most people this wasn’t a big deal but if you’re a world renowned composer who needs to collaborate with a big symphony, a zoom meeting just isn’t going to cut it. Today you’ll hear about a very unique work from home story that inspired a novel workaround. Like many pandemic innovations, it turns out this workaround had lasting benefits long after things have returned to normal.
Joining us today are the duo that developed this technology, Jody Elff and Anna Clyne. Elff is a Grammy Award winning audio engineer and sound artist. He has mixed countless televised network concert events and his orchestral collaborations include the LA Philharmonic and Lincoln Center Festival. London-born Anna Clyne is a GRAMMY-nominated composer of acoustic and electro-acoustic music and one of the most acclaimed and in-demand composers of her generation. We reached them in New Paltz, NY.

Music is an important tool for sports teams to get fans - and players - amped up for a game. The tunes need to rock the arena to keep the energy level high and a DJ needs to pick the right song to match each game situation. We wondered what it must be like to be a pro sports DJ: what’s involved in preparing and what it’s like to spin tunes for a big game. Taking us behind the scenes is music producer and DJ, Cale Granton.
Cale has performed alongside top musical talents including Snoop Dogg, Lil Yachty, Sean Paul & Major Lazer. A resident DJ at Drake’s private members-only Sher Club, he is often called upon by his extensive celebrity client list. Cale is also the Official DJ for the Toronto Maple Leafs where he spins for 20,000 Leaf fans at the Scotiabank Arena. We even got to meet up with Cale and check out his sweet setup overlooking a recent Leafs game.
