Making Waves Episode 115 welcomed Mike of Mike’s Dead to the podcast. His latest EP Bite Down is ready to hit the market as a continuation of his ability to drop singles briskly. His move from university business major to audio production school changed his trajectory, and his love of nu metal, industrial, and NY hip hop paved the way to the sound he has today. We discussed the idea of self-containment, finding your lane, narrative in 1st and 3rd person, and flipping the current music industry paradigm on its head. He’ll be joining ShipRocked for the first time in 2024.
