In this episode of the Indie 500, Breddy & Helio sit down with Ian Williams, guitarist for the band Battles, to discuss their album "Mirrored" which lands at #436 on NME's top 500 albums of all-time list. We touch on a variety of topics including evolving technologies in music, when do you just KNOW you've found a good loop you want to use, the evolution of the band from guys with day jobs to putting together a landmark album, touring and the evolution of the band. Ian also shares with us a glimpse into the randomness of life with a hilarious anecdote involving a recording studio, Kid Rock, and an indoor hot tub.
