Mark and Peter discuss why they can't get enough of concert films. The stage design, lighting and technology that goes into developing these mind-blowing live experiences are incredible. Talking about the Eras Tour, Queen, Muse, Coldplay and more!

Mark and Peter predict what they think the GTA 6 soundtrack will look and sound like. Celebrity DJs, a synthwave station? and will stations like V Rock adapt with the times or turn into legacy stations playing hits of the 80s?

Mark and Peter discuss why they love the Roland Boutique range, and how the form factor of a product can make you want to collect them all! Are desktop synths great Christmas presents? In addition to touching on Roland's legacy in music technology.

Mark and Peter discuss the pros and cons of managing your own equipment and how that effects your creative process, when you are trying to sort out defective audio drivers and tech that won't talk to each other. Hardware, software and hybrid kit all being mentioned in the episode.

Mark and Peter discuss Walk The Moon's swan song-esque release The Liftaway touching on what they like about it and how Walk The Moon's catalogue is overlooked and underrated in their eyes. From a fan perspective it's nice when a band announcing a hiatus is accompanied with new music.

Mark and Peter take a deep dive into their favourite pieces of gear but not what they sound like... but what they look like! Why does that matter? Because we buy with our eyes and when Dreadbox pedals and euro rack kit looks this good you can't not!
