Fine Tuning: a podcast about your favorite album

[finetuningpodcast]

Episode 6- 80lb Test

In this latest episode of Fine Tuning, I have on local noise and electronic artist 80lb Test to discuss the album Abbey Road by The Beatles, who I suppose are pretty famous. We talk about synthesizers, putting yourself out there, and the fun of experimentation. It was a great chat. It's good to be back! Show Notes can be found at finetuningpodcast.tumblr.com

On the fourth episode of Fine Tuning, I have on Marselle, who makes ambient/drone/noise/experimental/all around magical tunes here in Durham, NC. Marselle brought the 1970 album by Elton John, Tumbleweed Connection. Our discussion delves into his experiences growing up and living in central Florida, composition, experimentation, Captain Beefheart, and the current political atmosphere. It was a really fun conversation. Thanks again to Marselle for coming on the show!

In this first episode of Fine Tuning, I get the absolute pleasure of interviewing local North Carolina noise artist, Spookstina. We discuss her favorite album, Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins. The discussion delves into her personal history, tour stories, teen angst, and feelings about art, music, and personal expression. We also find out what instruments we each played in our school bands.

Thanks to Spookstina for being such a kind and wonderful guest.

Intro and Outro Themes by me, Neil.

The intro to the interview was Cherub Rock, off of Siamese Dream.

Thanks for listening! Take care of yourselves<3
