"You Know When, Like, You and Drummer Just Click?" Schuyler Tsuda

Note: I had a typo in my notes, and pulled a Ron Burgendy in the intro. The piece featured in the intro is Marble, Glass, and VAPOR, not Paper. What a silly goose I am. Also, kudos, Schuyler, Marble, Glass, and Vapor is a much better song name.

On this season-opening episode, I chat with Schuyler Tsuda, a sound artist, noisemaker, composer, improviser, and synth-pop concocter. We talk about styles of music that I haven’t been able to wrap my head around (don’t worry, I’m getting there). We talk about getting your hands actually on instruments and taking away the guesswork. We talk a lot about harsh noise walls and what the hell is going on there. But, ultimately, we just vibed on being good ol’ kindred spirit metalheads. I think that’s gonna come up a bunch this season. If this doesn’t get your ears weird, well, then I want to know what you’re listening to.

As always, timestamps of episode music are below, as well as links to my guest, and a Spotify playlist!
