SOUNDS COOL! A podcast-based edutainment series on audio and music recording technology, applications, and theory!
Dan wants to learn more about audio production and technology, so that he can help out with the many endeavors that Joe involves him in. On this podcast we'll be focusing on everything from the inception of punch-card music machines to how to blast music into a cassette tape *just right* from someone who is probably under-qualified to talk about those particular subjects.
You can find our podcast on Soundcloud and iTunes once we get all of that sorted. This is our first attempt at podcasting, so do us a solid and hit "subscribe" to come along with us while we get a feel for the format!
Produced and edited by Joe Arias
We'll be changing our recording situation very soon, so expect a dramatic jump in quality over the next few episodes!
