hanging out with audiophiles

First of all please send music, comments and jokes to lidellmakeswaves@gmail.com and I'll check em :) Feel free to join the pod patreon for the best sounds and max patches in the known universe and all that! link HERE Let's get on with the show! Ive been lucky enough to work with Daniel on my album Compass (2010) where he overdubbed a stack of these double speed, beautiful burnt crystaline, shimmering pentatonic runs that wind their way through the song "completely exposed" I was working with Chris Taylor from the Band Grizzly bear which is how many of you will have doubtless discovered the magic of Mr Rossen's voice and song craft and what a craft it is! His style is so singular and he's got that passion in his writing and playing that sets him apart with an intricate, elegant touch on guitar that has both urgency and solidity. There's real fire in him and at the same time a soft vulnerability and it all races around in these huge landscapes he paints in sound. Amazingly this is his first LP and what a beauty it is. A Timeless beauty at that. It's called YOU BELONG THERE and was released a few days ago on APRIL 8 2022 on warp records. He's currently out there, SOLO on the road on a short US and Euro Tour. I saw him in Nashville and was mesmerized. What a talent he is. A humble soul also, with immense talent and a welcome dash of dry humour. HERE is a link to his webpage so you can see he's coming to your town :) so with all that said, please welcome to the show, the rather wonderful. Daniel Rossen _____________ This episode features music from 5 excellent contributors! Oort CLoud services: Runnershigh No CIty West Erez Rok Zalokar https://shop.naturescenerecords.com/ Thank you to Fabfilter for sponsoring this nitty episode! I get super deep into the world of Timeless 3, their absolute BEAST of a delay plugin. It can pitch shift, distort, lofi, reverberate and custom tap its way into your world. It's available for desktop AND ios and I've made a bunch rather sweet presets for it on my adventures with it that work on both platforms. SO killer. In the nitty I explore the idea of making evolving delay sequences using the excellent tap designer part of the plugin. Patreons get the presets of course ! some juicy ones based on my marshall time modulator! _____________ BONUS POD RECOMMENDATION! I was super excited to listen to the pod that mylarmelodies put out with James Blake HERE is the link. Some super insightful nuggets in there. I highly recommend you give it a listen if you've not already.

I feel like I've been very close to meeting Marta for sometime now. When I went to the Sonic Ranch and met Brad Cooke he was mentioning this amazing woman who was a tape whisperer and I was determined to meet her. She sounded like the coolest! I had also heard her name through the master of mastering, Heba Kadry and then she sounded even more like the coolest! I managed to get in touch with Marta and we started talking about this interview a long time ago. I almost thought it might not happen but here we are! Marta is a force. She's worked on some very special music and I think that's no coincidence. She brings a deep understanding and passion to everything she does and the extra care and analog workflow really makes a huge difference when she does it, expecially with the tape effects and treatments in full view. Love that! She's worked with Bjork, Animal Collective, M.I.A., Frank Ocean, FKA Twigs, Black Midi, Holly Hearndon and the list goes on and on! just much great work. At the MPG Awards, she won Breakthrough Engineer of the Year in 2018. !!!! We had such a lovely chat. So happy this one finally happened :) As a nod to Marta's tape passion, the nitty sees me hearing double as I delve into the delightful world of ADT. It was a technique invented by Ken Townsend in the Beatles era and it still sounds so juicy as an effect when performed with a real tape machine. Essentially you're layering 2 copies of a track with something that sounds very similar but different to the source. During my experiments, I came across maybe my fave treatment on a nitty. Just sublime!

my guest is Joe Gallagher ! I wanted to speak to him after I saw he was heavily involved in the making of the album Heaux Tales by Jazmine Sullivan which is just such a great record. I was curious to hear how he works in this capacity and in general seeing as he's quite a private person and not super vocal on the socials etc. He's worked as an engineer on music by Kehlani, Ariana Grande, Kindness, Usher and much more. A humble badass. I hope you enjoy this chat. thanks once again to Diana Walsh for her help on the edit. I've been working with Rob Burger to make new music to share in order to raise money for the terrifying, escalating Ukraine situation. I'll be sure to alert you all when it's ready. I've been VERY busy with a hefty piece of max for live meets Touch OSC to control a rather excellent and dreamy pedal over MIDI. It's coming super soon for you all to check. Im very proud of it. I hope it'll be a new way to make sound for those of you that own the mystery pedal.. all shall be revealed VERY soon. My masterclass with Aulart is coming very soon. I hope you'll check it out! I really put my heart into it and it's like a bunch of really focused nitties on camera and some deep diving into my new song writing process that I think you'll find freeing! Here's the link to it. more LINKS: here's a link to a track from Jazmine Sullivan off the excellent Heaux Tales LP in our chat we get into DJ Shadow and the movie "Scratch" and in particular this scene (4 mins 20 in ) Shout out to ADDAC system ! they sent me the amazing 112 looper and grains module and I've been have so much fun with it. It's DEEP! Also I got some bridge units that allow CV to pass from one end of a big case to another. so so handy! Thanks to Distrokid for the kind sponsorship :) Get your music steaming in minutes!

Dustin O'Halloran is an American pianist and composer with five acclaimed solo albums under his own name. He released his first EP Sundoor with renowned classical musical label Deutsche Grammophon in 2019, and followed that up with his solo album Silfur in 2021. He's also a member of the band A Winged Victory for the Sullen with Adam Wiltzie, and they released their album The Undivided Five with Ninja Tune in 2019 and self-released their latest album Invisible Cities in 2021. He's the winner of a 2015 Emmy Award for his main title theme to Amazon's comedy drama Transparent (2014–2017), and was nominated for an Oscar, a Golden Globe, a BAFTA and a Critics Choice Award for his score to Lion (2016), written in collaboration with Volker Bertelmann (aka Hauschka). We get into many topics such as the old analog vs digital debat, habits at the piano, inner timing, the music of Hans Otte, the power of the ocean, icelandic breakfast, how to record the piano, working to picture and much more :) ________ In the nitty I recreate the magical oscillator offset that's found in the wonderful and soon to be legendary Yamaha CS70. It was inspired by this video of floating points in his studio, demonstrating this very thing. It's been a treat to remake in software and I run down how it was done. The most important piece of the puzzle was scaling the pitch wheel (actually 2 pitch wheels) to not be smooth but quantized to the intervals used in the CS70. To do this I used a Max for live device called "Bend Sequence" from Heaps of Bleeps. I really think this series is tremendous. I wasn't aware of his work but it's some great max programming and works so well. Here's the link to all his stuff :) _________ Music in this episode comes from BAPHONYM - from the LP STILLFACE which you can find here: https://mondegreensoho.bandcamp.com/album/stillface Please send your musical submissions to lidellmakeswaves@gmail.com I love to hear them! ____ Other links : Mylar Melodies deep dive into the Orchestron link here The music of Hans Otte link here ( this is not the album but rather a live performance)

Welcome to Crimble escape pod EP 91. Happy to share this chat with Jonathan Rado ! You may know him from his band Foxygen or perhaps his productions with The Killers, The Lemon Twigs, Tim Heidecker, Whitney, Alex Cameron, Father John Misty or perhaps Weyes Blood? I had a blast meeting him in the covid lull a while back where we had a rare face to face chinwag. We talk about his work with the killers, his come up and his early sonic adventures. How Richard Swift was a hugely pivotal force, both as a musical inspiration and then as a teacher. We get into his working alongside the magical Shawn Everett on many projects and the secret of his success in terms of the mystical "Rado effect"! ___ In the nitty I get into the rare world of the double head. Yes, not one but 2 Neumann ku100s were used to produce this one. Working a little with the idea of creating a far far away mic fade. We shall answer the age old question, are 2 heads are better than 1? Check it ____ I chat about my new big modular case. A thing of astounding beauty. Crafted by one of the best. A tremchap named Brock from Emc More on that and my secret next purchase soon ____ Music for the show comes from 2 super talented artists: splitradix https://splitradix.bandcamp.com And Gerald Fjord form his record Fracture https://geraldfjord.bandcamp.com You'll have to guess who's who's music is playing (it's pretty easy) ____ Thanks to Diana Walsh for interview editing :) find her on the gram here @dmwalshmusic _____ Thanks to Distrokid for the kind sponsorship :) Get your music steaming in minutes!

Hi Hope you're all well. Eat a lot and be thankful. I'm down with that ! Here's a little pod to fill you guys in on the recording of my new LP. 2 days of pretty epic recording are done! How was it? well you'd best take a listen.

hi Not a pod but a hallo. A Rrrrreally quick mind dump from me to you about my new LP and it's progress. It's the reason I've been absent from pod life for a while and I will be back soon but in the meantime I hope this goes someway to clarifying the butter of my world to you all. Hope you're funky !

Alex Bilo made the BTS mega smash hit Butter as part of a crack writing team. A song that spent weeks and weeks at the Billboard number 1 spot. Just huge. HUGE! Hear how it went down from a man I'm happy to say is my friend. Yep it's rare I'm friendly with such big writers but we go way back now.. Ah how the time flies! Alex came up working with many badasses before he hit it big Here's some links to his old school crew: Scott Jacoby https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Jacoby_(producer) Kevin Rudolf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Rudolf Jimmy_Douglass https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Douglass YES! Welcome hit maker Alex Bilo! ____ No nitty this time! First time in 90 shows. Yep, it's a short pod this one. Hope you enjoy the brief look behind curtain. I'm making a new LP so I need my hours guys. Back to full speed in Dec. _____ Thanks to Distrokid for the kind sponsorship :) Get your music steaming in minutes!

Stimming joins the pod for a hearty, autumnal, philosophical ramble which I found most fulfilling (actually we spoke in the summer but the falling leaves around here are turning my sense of time) He's been producing quality textural groovers for a long time and his new Album LUDWIG has just taken flight and he's certainly stretching himself to new astral spaces. Highly recommended! He says of this new album process: "I was making a living from dance music for such a long time, and during the last years I came to the point where I said to myself, 'man you are hiding so much of your own horizon" He's a funny and honest chap that has found his voice in the noisy world of house and "outer" house. The mastery of sound is spot on. Dynamic, patient, immerse, harmonically rich. Many adjectives apply :) Welcome to the pod Stimming! Nitty 89 is dedicated to maffez synthmods who is a wonderfully talented modder and builder in Austria who turned my RD8 into a WAY more interesting machine. This nitty is an attempt to SING drum patterns using audio loopers and envelope followers to create control tracks and it works rather well!
