Last week I did a loooong video interview with Mark J Smith over at Talking Bass and it’s just gone live on Youtube. He asked a whole bunch of fascinating questions, steered the conversation to useful places, and then edited out a lot of the fluff and waffle that inevitably ensued (maybe there’ll one day be a director’s cut with all that left in for the die-hards 😉 )
Anyway, it’s a good up-to-date exploration of what I’m up to. We covered:
- The new album
- Playing and improvising
- The inspirations behind the music – what I’ve learned from hip hop!
- Approaches to pedals and processing
- How the subscription model works
and a bunch more besides! Thanks Mark for taking the time to do this, I really appreciate the opportunity to talk!
