We're back after a little summer pause — no guest this month, just Nate, Ben, and Neil catching up on all things music, gear, and a band that doesn't actually exist.
We dig into the rise of AI-generated artists (looking at you, Velvet Sundown), what it means for real musicians, and whether listeners even care how the music was made. Plus: a heated conversation about live backing tracks, summer gigs, mastering workflows, new speakers (hello, Barefoot Footprint 03s), and yes… Nate bought a tape machine.
Also: Florence steaks, Fort Wayne slides, Sweetwater shoutouts, and some low-key gig consulting.
