Devin Townsend Podcast

Hello, this is Dev, and Im here to introduce you to ‘Devin Townsend Podcast’ - A monthly series of observations about the process of writing and creating music. This new version of the podcast will shift focus slightly and move on from simply talking about my past records, and instead focus on a real time observation of the next ones. I have a fair amount of experience to offer, however rather than trying to come across as some sort of a 'self help' character, I feel that theres enough people asking me how those experiences have shaped my writing that this seemed to be an angle to get behind, and in our tiny little scene, it seems like there was actually space for it. So here we go. This will evolve into interviews with the people involved, and glimpses behind the scenes of it all. In the past, this part of the journey has been kept under wraps, but after years of being asked for advice and upon being offered a platform to speak, this seemed like the one thing I am actually 'qualified' to speak about.

Episode 4 - Joe Satriani

For this months interview, I talked with guitarist Joe Satriani. Not only a commercially successful artist, but also a very effective teacher. His methodology seems deceptively simple yet clearly effective. Hes been a solid person and very down to earth throughout all our interactions and I appreciate his process.

Episode 3 - Tosin Abasi

Hey all, for the third episode, (and second interview) of The Devin Townsend Podcast, I'm interviewing renowned guitarist Tosin Abasi about his creative process. I'm fascinated by what makes artists tick, and as I continue down the path of interviewing people (there's some great guests lined up) I really enjoy getting insights into the minds of people I respect. I hope you enjoy it, and Ill see you next month. - Devin This podcast is brought to you by InsideOutMusic.

Episode 2 - Steve Vai

For the second episode, I am attempting the process of interviewing someone else about their process and seeing how they navigate the same stumbling blocks we all do. Steve Vai was the obvious guest based on our history and my relationship with him. If this works, I may attempt to interview other artists I know about this topic in hopes it can shed some light on your own experiences. Let us know if this is something you’d like me to continue, and if so…I’ll try to get better at it :) This podcast is brought to you by InsideOutMusic.

Episode 1 - Synesthesia

The DTPodcast is intended as a real time counterpart to the making of one of my projects. In this inaugural episode, (prior to getting into the nuts and bolts of it all) I discuss the concept of Synesthesia (when your brain routes sensory information through multiple unrelated senses, causing you to experience more than one sense simultaneously) the misconceptions of it, and how it acts as simply another type of musical vocabulary. How it relates to my work, and questioning if its actually a learnable trait. This podcast is brought to you by InsideOutMusic.
