Inside Music Podcast #7 – Chris Farren (Fake Problems / Antarctigo Vespucci)

I think we have finally reached a point where we can confidently say that we will release a new episode of our podcast 2-4 times every month. It would be great if we could guarantee every single week, but right now we don’t want to commit to more than we know we can complete. If you keep listening, we will keep recording, and in time there will be more hours of conversation than we know how to properly handle. That’s what we call a ‘good problem,’ and we welcome it with open arms.

This blog exists to promote the future of the entertainment industry, and to do that we need input from people like you and your entertainment-loving friends. If you have any questions about the content in this article, or if you have an artist you would like to see featured on this blog, please contact james@haulix.com. We can also be found on Twitter and Facebook.

The latest episode of Inside Music features very special guest Chris Farren, founding member of the Florida based punk outfit Fake Problems, co-founder of Antarctigo Vespucci, and someone my mom knows best for creating funny t-shirts. Chris has been a prominent member of the music scene since the mid-2000s, and in this interview he tells us about finding his footing in music, starting his bands, preparing to tour with Koji, the potential for a future solo album, and much, much more.

I’ve been familiar with Chris’ work for many years, but for whatever reason our paths never crossed until we connected over Skype to complete this interview. I walked away with a better understanding of what drives Chris to work as hard as he does, as well as a strong sense of excitement for the numerous plans he has for the future.

The music you hear at the beginning of this episode is take from “Don’t Die In Yr Hometown” by Antarctigo Vespucci.

If you would like to connect with Chris and learn more about his adventures in music, please make it a point to follow him on Twitter.

Inside Music Podcast #6 – Dave Mackinder (Fireworks/Tea & Water)

We have spent the past two months figuring out the world of podcasting, and I think we may have finally found our groove. After recording the episode you are about to enjoy I called my mom and told her I finally understood how this whole digital radio thing was supposed to work, at least for me and what I wanted to accomplish. She was proud, but she also wanted me to explain the concept of a podcast at length. I guess Will Smith said it best, parents just don’t understand.

The latest episode of Inside Music features very special guest Dave Mackinder, vocalist for the Michigan based band Fireworks. Dave and his band have been staples of the alternative music scene for nearly a decade at this point, and later this month they will hit the road once again as they embark on the Glamour Kills tour as support for New Found Glory and We Are The In Crowd. Mackinder also has a new side project, Tea & Water, which just released its debut EP last week. We talk about all this and more, including how he and other musicians make money when not touring or recording.

I’ve been a fan of Dave and his work in music for as long as I’ve known of Fireworks’ existence, so I knew we were going to record something special when the two of agreed to create this episode. As I sit and reflect on our chat now I realize that I’ve come to respect Dave and his creations in a whole new light, which I also hope you are able to take away from your listening experience.

The music you hear at the beginning of this episode is take from “Change Your Mind” by Dave’s side project Tea & Water. Their debut EP is available now through Bandcamp.

If you would like to connect with Dave and learn more about his adventures in music, please make it a point to follow him on Twitter. Fireworks’ latest album, Oh, Common Life, is available now wherever music is sold.

Inside Music Podcast #4 – James Cassar (Modern Vinyl)

It’s back! We told you last month that our hiatus from podcasting had come to a close, and as proof we’ve returned exactly fourteen days days later with our fourth episode ready to be shared across the world wide web. We know a lot of you have asked about getting this show on iTunes, and we promise that is on our immediate to-do list. For now, you can stream and download this show, as well as the rest of the Inside Music series, on Soundcloud

On this week’s episode, author and Modern Vinyl contributor James Cassar joins us for a conversation on life, love, and the pursuit of writing. James and I have been digital friends for a little over a year at this point, but the recording of this podcast was the first time we had actually had a real conversation with each other. You can tell we’re still trying to figure the other one out in a way, but in the end laughs are had and great stories are shared.

I told James this a bit when we were recording the show, but he is one of the few online writers I make it a point to read on a regular basis. His insight into music, as well as his sense of wordplay, are second to none in this industry. The best part of all is that he’s very much still getting started, which means he likely has many big, brilliant accomplishments on the horizon. To have him on the show is an honor, and I hope you enjoy our conversation.

Our plan is to release a new podcast every week from here on out, and we already have another episode 90% complete. We hope you have as much fun listening to this show as much as we did making it. I know we’re not on the iTunes store just yet, but we will be by the end of the month!

Inside Music Podcast #2 – Zack Zarrillo (PropertyOfZack)

After a little more than a month away it gives us great pleasure to reintroduce the Inside Music podcast. We learned a great deal from our first episode, including the necessity of high quality microphones, and have made several efforts to improve our production for this latest offering. If you have any ideas for how we can improve our efforts further, please reach out on Twitter.

This week’s episode features guest Zack Zarrillo, otherwise known as the founder of PropertyOfZack.com and co-founder of Bad Timing Records. Zack has been a fixture in the pop punk scene for the last several years, and though he’s only 21 he has already managed to carve a unique niche for himself in this business that has opened more doors than I am able to count. Our conversation revolves mostly around Zack’s efforts in writing, as well as his plans for future, but we do dive into his other projects and the problems that arise when someone takes on as much as he has in the past year. I’m really happy with the result, and I think those that listen to the full recording will learn to see Zack in a new way as a result.

The music you hear at the beginning of this episode is take from “That One Limp Bizkit Song” by California folk punk outfit Sledding With Tigers. Their debut album, A Necessary Bummer, is available now through Antique Records.

Our plan is to release a new podcast every week from here on out, and we already have another episode 90% complete. We hope you have as much fun listening to this show as much as we did making it. I know we’re not on the iTunes store just yet, but we will update you on that front soon. For now, let’s get to the show:
