  • S2. Ep.3 - Sound Limiters
    Nov 3 2023

    In this episode we explore one of the biggest gripes that musicians have when performing live - SOUND LIMITERS. You may not be aware of these if you are not a musician, but they are becoming increasingly more popular as venues look to obtain live music licenses and any up-coming musician needs to know how to deal with them. We also explore the power of dynamics within groove. One not to be missed.

    See you in Episode 4!

  • S1. Ep8. Special Guests - Andrew Green & Tabasum Mirbaniasad
    May 22 2023

    When you think of university, you may think of a bunch of 18 year olds coming to the big city and finding themselves. However, we are very lucky to have many mature students join us as ICMP, and we are a much richer institution for having them there. On this week's episode, we are joined by 2 of them! Andrew and Tabasum are quite simply two of the most lovely people you could meet, and we are very grateful for this conversation where they share their stories about getting into music and their aspirations post-studies.

    Thanks for listening, and see you in Episode 9!
