This episode paddles into various discussions I have with one of my good friends & ex classmates Paul Roberts. During our postgraduate music degree we delved into studies revolving around authenticity & whether we write for ourselves or others. Paul's an outstanding lyricist and got an annoyingly good grade in our final project at @usw_music in 2019 haha. Enjoy!

This series will be fuelled with artists who have been recommended by my friends, listeners & myself and I'm so excited. Huge thanks to Jay for being an intruiging first guest on series 2! Jay was a legend, we talk about the construction of Journey and dip into the consequental effect of discovering music involuntarily and discuss the compatibility of music & lyrics. I fell in love with this song a few days ago and still have it on repeat

I heard this absolute TUNE by Scott Ruth/Noah Gundersen a few months ago and wanted to deep dive into the creation, ideas and mindset of the writer. Thanks to Scott I also grabbed a series of tips, motivational stories & whole new perspective of this hit. Thanks for joining me Scott!

I've been loving GARDENS February 2020 release "Love Me To Death" since Discover Weekly passed this musically minimalistic yet complexing lyricsphere earlier this year. I was so happy to speak to frontman and track lyricist Cameron Pike about the original ideas and influences behind the track and get his insight as a Songwriter. Huge love to this band X

I'd heard this song months ago and it stood out amongst the April edition of Alexrainbirds sensational indie playlist hits . The production to the melody to the simplicity of this beautific pop anthem has me musically infatuated and Berlue talks about how he created it. We also get a brief debut with a live version!!

I got to speak to Ryse in this episode about the authenticity of his writing styles after meeting him at an event 2 weeks prior. Ryses' lyrics hit me hard after having a break from songwriting and got me back into the obsession of creativity after hearing his stylistic approaches. We also talk about distribution and collaboration

Sol Djangos debut album was released on 5th March. A musical concept album that follows John Bold as he travels back in time to Victorian London in 1839. In this episode we cover the creative timeline from first thought to final note of singer-songwriter & multi-instrumentalist Ste Powells masterpiece. Ste also talks about the mechanics of both the audio and visual aspects which culminates to this fantastic release.

In the first episode of my Music Production series, I was glad to welcome back the legendary Jordy Pearce. Jordy discusses the creative production and the successes, doubts & technical processes behind this hit as heard on BTN. He also shares a major setback which occurred during the making of the song aswell as dipping into the technical tricks of his vocal mixing.

Al Branton returns to the show to discuss his perception of performance anxiety. We dip into the vast ocean of performance anxieties but mainly fixate on moderating boundaries & behaviours of exposing our thoughts, feelings & natures as songwriters. Al also shares trials of icons such as Mozart & Beethoven who, like many creatives, are traumatised.

It was great speaking to Laura Jazmyn about her minor tribulations with performance anxiety after hearing her BTN Episode back in January. Laura talks about the fundamentality of self confidence and how its a key target for eradicating ones nerves in live performance. We also discuss the privilege of creatives in modern day technology as opposed to the 80s & 90s.
