Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

JULIAN KINDRED (Phasing When Recording, Mixing Drums, Working In Nashville & More)
Q: How did you decide to move from Nashville to London?
The decision grew out of a long‑term relationship and a practical cross‑border life with his partner, plus increasing opportunities in the UK, where he already had offers and familiarity with the scene.
TAMUZ (Creating Sample Packs, Music Influences and Drum Processing)
Q: What's your advice for someone who wants to create and release their own loop or sample pack?
He suggests starting with a clear belief that your loop or one-shot can inspire others, then focusing on two aspects: a strong artistic concept and a brand that is visually and functionally easy to use. He advises being intentional about organization, file quality, and presentation, and emphasizes reaching out to producers with genuine respect and a personalized pitch.
TAMUZ (Creating Sample Packs, Music Influences and Drum Processing)
Q: How did you start playing drums and evolve into the Tamuz you are today?
Tamuz describes an early, persistent passion for drums, a formative exploration of gospel chops and rock, and a key shift from touring drummer to producer of sample packs, driven by a desire to capture great sounds and inspire producers. He details the move from living rooms and limited gear to building a brand and turning drum recordings into a business.
ADRIAN HALL (Metropoilis Studio, Getting Great Sounds From Small Rooms & More)
Q: How did you start in music and end up in drum recording and mixing?
I started as a drummer, studied acoustics and engineering, and moved into studios through Metropolis, eventually becoming a freelance engineer focused on recording, mixing, and producing drums for a wide range of artists.
EMRE RAMAZANOGLU (Producing, Mixing Drums, Working With Legends & More)
Q: Dream artists to record for?
