I"ll be joined by fellow musicians, engineers and all-round audiophiles who kindly share their tips, stories and ingenious insight from the bizarre world of music production.

HOWA EP 145 - TIM STORY

2025/10/07

As you know, I’ve been rather obsessed with the music of Hans-Joachim Roedelius, and that obsession doesn’t seem to be fading anytime soon. So you can imagine my delight when I discovered that Tim Story, who joins me on this episode of the podcast, played a major role in creating the remarkable record that’s captivated me lately — 90. To make that album, Tim sifted through over 100 hours of unreleased material from Roedelius’s archives — a monumental effort that resulted in this stunning

Was a mighty pleasure to chat with the alchemical Lucrecia Dalt. She's playing with THOSE forces. Sculpting the slippery into sound. Both primal and refined. This is not free noise by any means, it's a crafted and highly tuned set of worlds that all feel both intimate and deliberate at the same time. Wonderful music. Wonderful art. In your face and unapologetic. Bravo!!! Her new album is called "A Danger to Ourselves" Out Sept 5th Here's a Bandcamp link. Hightly recommend you check it out. It cuts

Lovely to catch up with Kaitlyn to get a behind the scenes breakdown of the process that went into creating her latest LP "Gush" I was not expecting it to be made this way. Nope. I had no clue. I loved being so utter wrong about it! I challenge you to listen fist to the music and then guess how she pulled it off. Utterly wild. Love it. She tells me of the sonic coffee (what resets her ear palette) The inspiration of Lex ishimoto the dancer and reveals a secret as to who she'd like to sound like when

Welcome Philip Weinrobe the optimist. It’s downright infectious to hang with this chap. His bright-eyed, freewheeling attitude is not something that can be put on. Well at least, I feel you know when it's an act. In Philip's case it's interwoven into his worldview. What I'm saying is. He’s really that guy and it’s a wonderful thing! I was happy to learn of his wigglesome ride through this thing called life that led him work with some of the modern greats like Adrianne Lenker (Big Thief), Tomberlin,

Meet Pascal :) What a treat it has been to welcome this man into my life Not only did he give me confidence and skills to play the piano for the first time in my life, he toiled to transcribe my vocal multitracks and save them from dying on the hard drive. He sat with me and the recording crew in the studio for 5 hours to assist our cellist as this

HOWA EP 140 - ROB BURGER

He lives across the street and happens to be one of my fave musicians ever. Sometimes life is just like that right? He's played in so many rolls over the years both as a solo artist and film composer and as a player backing the heaviest like Laurie Anderson, Lou Reed, Marianne Faithfull, John Zorn and this bloke Jamie Lidell Yep, he's opened me up to so much great music and is one of the best improvisers I've ever heard. Just flowing with the music. He sits at the piano and he's away. With the muses

HOWA EP 138 - CRISTÓBAL TAPIA DE VEER

hanging out with audiophiles ·

2025/05/04

I got hip to Cristobal’s work thanks to my recent TV addiction. I inhaled all 3 seasons of the white lotus and I think I was only able to get so greedy because of the EXCELLENT music. I usually get repelled by TV scores tnh. I feel like I know the tricks and the tones and the emotional devices and I end up paying attention to them in a bad way. My agitation stops me from getting swept up and carried away. Not so with this man’s work. I just felt like it was so deeply connected to the lands and

HOWA EP 137 - BIBIO PT2

2025/04/03

Took me a while this one. Sadly, as many of you may know, I lost my Dad. It was a very long time coming and I was "prepared" but of course death has a power that yields a unique power and the grief has hit in waves. The first week was a kind of exhaustion, then I got to feel the sadness and the reality hit me in a new and more profound way. I talk about it here in the pod so I'll not linger too long in text form. Needless to say, it's been an intensely emotional time. Shortly after this news I was

I met Matt Ross-Sprang thanks to Mark Rubel. Mark was an amazing knowledge and super generous chap who sadly died not so long ago. RIP to that legend. I'll never forget that trip to visit some of America's most amazing studios. We toured most of the iconic rooms in Memphis which is the city where Matt Ross-Sprang has always resided. We went to Sun where Elvis, Johnny Cash, Howlin’ Wolf all recorded and then on to Sam Philips recording service which Matt helped restore to its former glory. What a

2025/01/28

What a treat it was to speak with the absolutely wonderful Suzanne Ciani who’s really a unique and outstanding woman in the world of electronic music. We get into her early use of psychedelics and chat about spirituality and the inner “little voice” which is her guide in all things. We discuss eternal sounds, how her LP “Seven Waves” was constructed from a huge manuscript. We listen to her snoring cat and chat tennis. In fact there’s a lot of tennis talk here which is definitely a first and an area

YO ho ho ah.. it's a bit late for that. Sorry this WAS supposed to be a Christmas pod. The so called "escape pod" but I got struck with a brutal illness that is only just waning. I shan't linger on it as it's dull but I was down. Down, down, down like the pointer sisters are clearly singing about in "automatic". This pod is brought to you remotely from Sedona Arizona. It might sound a bit less polished as a result but it's the content that matters :) Welcome to this humble whee ramble with Roger

HOWA EP133 - TRENTEMØLLER

2024/12/16

Id often hear about this man during my stint in Berlin in the mid 2000s. Mostly that he had an amazing live show... who was this man? There was a sense in my mind that he was a gothic mystery, a dark figure that coaxed mystical melodies from the tarot and such but it seems like he’s a sensitive and passionate follower of his own North Star. His upbringing in Denmark really captured my imagination. Partly just reflecting on the simpler times and remembering my own childhood in the sticks and how

**** There is a wild 50% off strore wide sale for all my vinyl and merch until the end of the year! https://shorturl.at/FXgkf This was one of the most entertaining chats Ive had in ages tbh. I had no real idea who or what Eric was about before this and it turns out we would get along famously. Plus he lives here. Wild. What a fun hang this was. I tell you what, a huge part of it was that it was in my studio and thus NOT on zoom and guess what? the human connection is WAY better without digital

I chat with six missing aka TJ Dumser who’s a man of many talents Known for award-winning sound design, mix for web, film + surround , remote voice-over recording and of course his music which is waht we chat about most of time. His soothing sounds reached me over the interwebs and I was lucky enough to get the chance to remix a number of his called “sitting beachside” Which you can find here https://sixmissing.bandcamp.com/track/sitting-beachside-feat-clariloops-jamie-lidell-remix After this

Michael Zähl, former engineer and designer of the main custom made mixing console at the legendary Studio of Conny Plank and Mark Ernestus, long time producer known from projects like Basic Channel and Rhythm & Sound had a special encounter which led to the collaborative development of AM1 - the state-of-the-art pure analog mixing console.

HOWA EP129 - Taylor Deupree & Joseph Branciforte

hanging out with audiophiles ·

2024/10/06

A fascinating and frankly bonkers translation has taken place Taylor Deupree’s original album Stil., released in 2002 was made with 100% digital techniques with a heavy dose of microsound, layering and looping. It now exists as something wildly different and yet painstakingly based on that work. This new iteration is a 100% acoustic version which takes it from Stil. to Sti.ll This is a rare form of digital to analog conversion and should only be attempted by festidious and slightly insane people

I was lucky enough to be introduced to Hauschka a.k.a. Volker Bertelmann thanks to my friend Dana Wachs who was a pod guest on EP71. He’s had quite the wonderful and interesting adventure in music. It’s quite rare that you find someone who plays prepared Piano so deftly and was also once known as a rapper. Clearly, this was not going to be your average chat. If we place ourselves in the present (which I’m told is always a good place to be !) Our ears might find the dancing frequencies from his

Aside from his work as a manager, Kazim is chief creative officer at Resident Advisor, the world's largest and most influential electronic music platform. His work often focuses on collaborating with artists, record labels, and brands to help them achieve their goals in the music industry. We get into the current state

Im going to read from the press release this time coz its a good’n The simpatico sophomore album by the unstoppably prolific Alex Paterson and fellow Orb original Andy Falconer is an epic sail through the sky at night. Helmed by gentle spirits with warmth in their hearts, ‘SETI’ feels cold and dark, yet also glowing and welcoming. Aboard a cosy candlelit spacecraft, the duo experience the cosmos as somewhere overwhelmingly infinite, yet reassuring and friendly. A sort of ‘ambient unplugged’, it’s
