Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Juro "MEZ" Davis (Episode 112, S10)
Q: How did you transition from being an artist to engineering other artists' music?
Transitioning began out of necessity: self-recording at home led to gradually recording others, which evolved into a full-time engineering path as he built hands-on experience and knowledge, shifting from a rapper with studio access to a sought-after engineer and mixer for artists.
André LeRoy Davis (Episode 99, S8)
Q: What was the moment that you realized your work was having an impact?
André reflects that he initially didn't care about public response, but he started noticing when artists reacted positively or negatively to his work.
Alexander Richter (Episode 101, S9)
Q: What was the moment that you knew you wanted to become a photographer?
It was kind of like one of these moments where the internet was different, and I discovered my dad's cameras and decided to focus on still images instead of motion.
Ant (Episode 97, S8)
Q: How have some of those peak creative habits changed for you over the years?
I'm putting music pieces together that I wouldn't have thought belonged, like literally something off a four track, right next to something I had musicians play lush instruments to.
Ant (Episode 97, S8)
Q: In what ways do you think you've been encouraged or surprised by the people that create this conversation around your work?
You know, because I tour so much, I meet people in person. And in person, people are not so quick to say negative things to you.
