Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

If It Does Go Wrong It Goes Really Wrong (Jacob Andrews - Profiler)
Q: What advantages do you find in traditional grip, and do you use it much?
He explains that traditional grip aids ghost-note definition and offers a distinct sound and feel, though in Profiler it is not the default; it remains a tool for jazz and future fusion explorations.
If It Does Go Wrong It Goes Really Wrong (Jacob Andrews - Profiler)
Q: With Profiler, do you consider yourself primarily the drummer of Profiler or a freelance session drummer who also plays in Profiler?
He describes a 50-50 split between freelance work and Profiler, highlighting how each role feeds into the other and supports a broader creative identity.
If It Does Go Wrong It Goes Really Wrong (Jacob Andrews - Profiler)
Q: But what's that like playing in ABBA stuff?
The guest explains that ABBA tributes offer a high-production, controlled environment where he can inject personal flair while staying faithful to the tracks, balancing performance polish with creative interpretation.
Auntie Ableton (Josh Cappers - James Marriott)
Q: How did you get into playback and what were your learning steps?
Josh describes a three-part path: early inspiration from electronic music and drum and bass, mentorship from Miles Sargent and Joe Clegg, and formal courses that helped him perform playback live and become a music director.
If I'm Not Ellie On Tour Who Am I (Ellie East - Dave Stewart)
Q: How did Ellie get involved with the Eurythmics project and what was the recruitment process like?
