Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 85 - 'The End Of An Era + The Start Of A New Chapter' - Matt Griffiths
Q: So what about the tangible barriers that relate to income specifically, as in you're from a super poor background. Why is that, that poorer people are not able to access music more now than previously?
Matt explains that class and financial barriers affect access to music learning, including travel, instruments, and quality outside-school teaching, with a tendency for more privileged students to have immediate access and ongoing opportunities; he also highlights the need for better support and recognition of youth-led music outside school.
Episode 84 - 'The Notes In Between, Graphic Scores, Mircotones And More' - Adam Ironside
Q: Have you created your own little blocks of scale and a library of scales to flatten or sharpen notes for different effects?
Yes, I maintain an internal library of scales and experiment with flattening or sharpening degrees to achieve both pleasing and more unsettling musical effects, often starting from base modes and exploring quarter-tone alterations.
