Your first roller coaster ride was an experience all its’ own. But by the eleventh time you went on, it was fun but had lost a little luster. This is the comparison that we keep reciting to ourselves every time we start a new podcast— let’s get on a different ride this time, and try [...]

Some people would question the logic of continuing on with a project for three years that makes no money, has a small listenership, and consumes a lot of free time to bring it to fruition. But getting a natural high is not always something that adheres to logic.
You see, in the world of podcasts [...]

Somebody once said that what we do every day is nothing more than distractions from the fact that we are slowly dying. Oh wait, that was Sahm who said that. Well, shit. Nevertheless, what those distractions are is entirely up to you. Some people watch lots of TV, some people enjoy the nightlife, some people [...]

It was all supposed to be much different. This tenth podcast was supposed to be released in February 2007 in full surround sound. This podcast was supposed to have a loyal following of a few hundred listeners. This podcast was supposed to be filled with guest vocalists, a smattering of various singers and rappers making [...]

We just hunted down and killed that fifteen month old cold turkey. After all, it’s not easy to describe podcast withdrawal, especially since few are suffering from it. While you might call it ‘audiosexual frustration’, I’d prefer to just paraphrase Robert Plant: It’s been a long time since we did the stroll. Ooh, let us [...]

Oscar Wilde once said, “Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative.” It’s a rather omnious quote for any creative person still trying to find their big break. Nevertheless, since the first 7 episodes of Magic Junk Radio were consistent on a level of composition, it was only natural that we avoided relaxing into any [...]

Never let it be said that I cannot share my creative process. After doing 99% of the work on the first six episodes of Magic Junk Radio, I decided to take in a group of refugees last month. I promptly gave them each a laptop and some headphones, and put them to work in my [...]

Four months of podcast silence felt like an eternity for me, but no longer. The time to take cherished samples and theme songs and make them into electronic madness is now.
Of course, four months ago, the belief was to confine myself to a dark room with the goal of finding magic creative mushrooms growing in [...]

Even in the midst of concentrating on a huge project, one might hear the voice of a smaller project calling, begging to be finished before it gets lost in the shuffle. While such an instance happened to me this month, I will not confess to hearing voices. No sir, not us.
Anyway, that huge [...]
