A podcast covering all things related to music production: from the first note to the last fan and everything in between. We create music and inspire others to do the same. Every episode is a live business meeting between me and Dan (me and Keith) as we build this media empire right before your very eyes/ears.

In this episode we discuss:

Special guest Gene Segal

We start off talking about jazz and about how hard it is to make a living playing jazz in general nowadays and I guess forever.

We both love jazz but we admit that it’s a four letter word in some respects.

Gene has opened up an official studio in North Jersey and is accepting new clients to record. In fact, he’s offered for a limited time I suppose, for anyone who wants to make a record to come down and make one track for free. I’m probably going take him up on that offer to do one track for free and perhaps to do another one or another couple of tracks paid and maybe an EP or something.

The idea is that I probably will record some tracks with him. So we start talking about whether I’ll have to put a band together or whether I will hire some musicians to get this thing going. Not really firming up any plans but just laying it all out on the table.

I told Gene that I want to get a band together and I don’t necessarily want to hire musicians to make the recording. I’d rather have a band so that I could get some rapport going with the players.

A great part of Gene service is that he has a bunch of top-notch musicians to perform on records. It’s all about the net work. He has a deep bench. I’ve heard some of the tracks he’s produced and they sound great!

Every producer has musicians that they like to work with.

Gene asked me if I was thinking of doing an EP. I told him I was thinking more along the lines of a single with an A side and a B side. And he said that yeah that’s a lot what a lot of people are doing nowadays. No one is really releasing albums now. Of course we both discussed the fact that we are more inclined to make albums because that’s what we’re used to experiencing. Making an album feels like an accomplishment. It feels like a complete work.

Gene can program drums as well. He uses high-quality samples and he can get it to the point where some people wouldn’t even know that it’s not a real drummer.
