 Today's guest croc E moses hails from South Africa and born in Canada, is a poet, musician, songwriter and film maker. He comes into the studio and we have a good long chat about all things art and beyond. 

We go to a local cell tower and dress the guide wires up with springs, cymbals, whilst contact-bowing metal objects through a bass amp. The airstream was once again used as a broadcast satellite, to then mic up using AEA R88 and condenser mics. The cell tower will soon be available to be loaded into your sampler and use the many new textures as an instrument, as heard in this podcast. Watch for the launch of SpiceRack; loops and samples from The Jawshop - Adventure Recording.

A political rant about a scary bill that threatens the livelihood of Canadian content creators.

We explore the insides of the 4track stereo culvert broadcasting session done down by the beaver pond, and the various mic techniques used, mixing techniques, dangers of water, and how the massive set up was well worth it. Also discussed is the production on a short film, and examples of the sounds from the session are given.

This episode we dive into IR [Impulse Response Convolution]. Taking my mics into adventure recording environments to create reverbs for film and television, music, podcasts and anything under the sun. A 2track stereo recording of a basic drum loop is used to compare three mic'd areas in the 1959 airstream 24ft studio trailer. The trailer is thus flown in using Space Designer in LogicPro to provide the reverb for the drums.

Discussion and thoughts about the paradigm shift in society and how it relates to music. Building up infrastructure and gear, keeping overheads low due to increasing inflation, a renaissance fueled by house concerts and small venues. Mike Mask, a new character introduced from The Jawshop. 

Something different in this podcast, a taste and description of some of the loops and sounds that will soon be available from The Jawshop - Adventure Recording. Wear headphones!

A quick chat about a cool piano hack, and how I made it to sound like a rowdy Rhodes, some info on The Jawshop - Adventure Recording process and some results from out in the field, and a special announcement of some fun things to buy from the The Jawshop in times ahead.

Part 2 with my discussion with Vancouver based guitarist and producer Thomas Hoeller.

A quick recap into what it means to finish a rather fruitful and trying year.
