    Ask TAXI Music's CEO Any Question, LIVE![121525]
    Dec 16 2025
    It's been a while since we've done an "Ask Michael Anything" on TAXI TV, so that's exactly what we're going to do on today's show! Ask me anything about TAXI, engineering & production (from the mics and wires aspect), or the music licensing business, and I'll do my best to give straight-ahead, helpful answers. Btw, I was at a session at the Foo Fighters' private studio a few days ago and had my mind blown! I'm going to tell you all about that and show you some photos of the control room, live room, guitar amps, and especially the vintage Neve recording console Dave Grohl bought from the legendary Sound City studio when it closed its doors. Other stuff I'll be talking about... Want to know how many tracks you really need before music libraries take you seriously? I get that question all the time, and frankly, the answer will surprise you! And, I’m going to tell you today. These are the types of questions I’ll be happy to answer, and anything else you’ve got! Viewers love these episodes, and I always have fun doing them.

  • Ignorance Isn't Bliss For Musicians![120825]

    Ignorance Isn't Bliss For Musicians![120825]
    Dec 9 2025
    There are so many ways to get paid for your work in the age of digital music that I admit I’m confused as to who exactly pays what. One thing I do know is that the people who attended the presentation by the MLC (Mechanical Licensing Collective) at this year’s TAXI Road Rally were SO glad they went! They were so grateful that I’ve invited one of the MLC’s executives (Dae Bogan, Head of Third-Party Partnerships) to join us on this week’s TAXI TV. He’s great at explaining why you really could have money just sitting there waiting for you, and what you can do to collect it! I know… the cynic in me used to think that sounds too good to be true, but not since I did my homework and found out that it’s completely true! It would be really sad to miss out on collecting money your music has already earned for you just because you didn’t know how easy it is to collect it. In this case, ignorance is not bliss! Join Dae and me for this "Do Not Miss" episode! He's really smart, highly informed, and has some very interesting thoughts on how musicians might get compensated in the AI era of music. I think those ideas and concepts might be outside of what we can learn about how the MLC works during the show, but they're so intriguing, I'm going to press him to talk about them, anyway!

  • Navigating Today’s Music Business Is Much More Than the Notes![120125]

    Navigating Today’s Music Business Is Much More Than the Notes![120125]
    Dec 2 2025
    Hollywood Score Composer and Film Producer Brian Ralston is one of the most well-informed and articulate people I’ve met during my 50 years in the music business. He’s so clear-headed about so many aspects of the music and film industries that I did a solo interview with him at this year’s Road Rally—our annual conference. Brian didn’t disappoint! The people in the ballroom felt like they had learned something important. Things they normally don’t think about because they’re usually focused on the music much more than their career. Because he was so good, I’ve decided to do something I’ve rarely done after the Road Rally—I’ve invited Brian to reprise what we did on stage last month, but this time we’re doing it live on TAXI TV!
