Episode Notes

Adam's back this week and we dive right into it, despite some perceived technical issues on Tim's side (thinking it was a ASIO driver thing)... Today we talk about all kinds of stuff, but drive towards the theme of the day which is basically the new landscape of the music scene.

Has the function of music changed? As suggested by Eric Johnson on Rick Beato's channel. Meaning... previously, people had music as a primary form of entertainment and relief. They'd spend time with focused listening... introspection, etc.. but perhaps now a days, that is really not the case. Perhaps now, music is more of a filler, in the background of our lives, but too many distractions from other things get in the way.

We also dive a bit into Matteus Asato's recent retirement? And the Instagram 60 second culture. Is a 60 second guitar lick music? Is it cool at all to present something as "off the cuff" when you rehearsed and recorded it 78 times and perhaps even mimed the best video with the best audio? Finally, we get into an "Ask Ann" article about how Ann Landers and this kids parents wanted to destroy their kids ambitions and love for guitar and well, how we hate her for it, ha.

This and more! Tim was fortune this week to be part of an interview on "Getcha Some Productions" podcast to discuss the recent passing of Chick Corea, so be sure to check that out too.
