Musical Scenes and New Beginnings (Happy New Year!)
description
In this last solo pod before the new year, let’s talk about how music coalesces around “scenes.” There’s a beautiful element of competition and adoration across each major musical movement. What’s the scene now? How’s it growing? And what’s my scene? We’re each other’s influences in unexpected ways. Between competition and influence and adoration. Time and time again. An influence in time and space. Thanks for listening to the pod!

In this first episode of the new year, I reflect on the concept of musical scenes and their profound impact on the music we create and enjoy. I dive into how these scenes form not just as geographical locations, but as vibrant communities of artists who influence one another through competition, collaboration, and shared experiences. I discuss my own scene, characterized by connection and creativity, highlighting the importance of context in shaping music history and the growth that comes from these influences.
