The Printer Pod w/ Basic Printer

Aaron has been referenced on pretty much every podcast up to this one, and for good reason. He has been around since the formal inception of BP and has helped produce almost all of the works and has performed in every iteration of the band thus far. He has participated in every tour as well, and is currently co-producing the next record which is in the works. We talk about beer, cooking, musical philosophy, and spicy candy.

I met Neonstorm whilst touring through Pittsburgh in 2018 - BP opened up for a band that Chris (aka Neonstorm) was in called The Alfomega. This led me to listening to Chris' solo record and I was blown away by how good it was - so I figured i'd get him on the podcast to dig in further. We talk about the music of nature, lost media, and how social media brought us together.

Daniel Sauls has been someone that I've been aware of and have interacted with many times now and we like a lot of the same stuff. He is a percussionist, producer, and lover video games. Incorporating all of these interest and skills, he has played in many different formats for many different artists, his most acclaimed being Lauren Daigle (as of late) where it led him to being the first person ever to play a sampler in Carnegie Hall. ":O" as they say!!

Laura Epling is a violinist who played on Basic Printer's first EP (Track 6 - Regal Sprint). Since then she has begun to build her career, of which includes arranging and recording strings for Moon Taxi (popular band)! We talk about why she likes gin and her roots, and how she has fun proving people wrong just by doing well in her craft. She also paralyzes me by asking me who I love.

In this new series, I deconstruct the story, songwriting, instrumentation and production that went into making my song "Good Weird". Giving a new thing a try that sounded mega fun to me. Let me know how you like and what song you'd like to hear deconstructed next.

Levi Gordon (aka Skeleton at the Feast), rapper extraordinaire and general wordsmith and smart and emotive man, was my first friend in Nashville. I interview him on what makes rap great, why we should speak our truths and live in an empathetic way, and I also play a remix that I made of one of his older tunes.

Sira Faris is a budding artist in Nashville who is vulnerable and open with who she is and her music (which I appreciate muchly in a person.) After only 6 days of knowing each other, we recorded this extra long conversation where we get into everything between high school in now, from self-harm, to exes, to childhood music preferences.

Jesse goes on a super personal rant, talking about women, his mental health, and musical aspirations for 2019.

I met Andrew Dornoff at one of my shows because he's always on the lookout for electronic music in Nashville. A fest head and music junkie, he talks about how he's traveled the world and undergone a ton of experiences that have led him to this place of curiosity and eccentricity. 

Mick is one of my best friends and helps with the comedic design of the Basic Printer videos. We talk about some basic things but then get into a fictional interview between two made up characters.
