one of the things that really resonated with me throughout this fantastic episode was the discussion on crafting a sound journey in medias res; a story already in progress. and yet not losing sight of the personal aspect. reaching out to people; questions, connections, empathy, compassion. slowing down to let moments happen, and sharing them with the listener.
i’ve always noticed a certain warmth in the melodic/textural vibes and titles of josh’s music. hearing him articulate some of how that comes about–the blend of intentionality and intuition, the discovery along the way, the right amount of time needed to communicate something, familiarity–was really wonderful. that type of intimacy is inspiring; something i’ll be thinking about very much in my future work. i’m likeminded in desiring to share my heart, in a way, through song.
thanks so much for sharing, @jwm & @dan_derks.
