FlavortoneEpisode 21: The Cochlear WindIn this final episode of 2021, Alec and Nick wrap up the year by revisiting an early concept from the Flavortone archive: the Cochlear Wind. The Cochlear Wind is a figurative mascot, intended to both cheer and taunt the way composers bamboozle listeners (and often, themselves) through flurries of tactical language, technological posturing and evocations of site-specificity. Poking fun at platitudes found in sound art and phenomenology, this idea is a parody of "the mystery of sound," where sonority and noise disorient the always beleaguered, insufficient Ear as it attempts to understand an audible world. Topics include: the Trap Card...2021-12-231h 04Carbonite ConvosSpider-Man No Way Home Review! (SPOILERS!!)THE WAIT IS OVER!!

FlavortoneEpisode 19: Let's Talk TurkeyIn preparation of cooking their own turkey for Thanksgiving dinner, Alec and Nick make a broad comparison of the venerable bird to the production of music albums and the heights and depths of American culture. Topics include tensions around suspicion and comfort, the trauma of American capitalist and familial ritual, obsessive indexing and preparation tactics, gratitude as radical subjectivity, and the carnal reveries of desiring-production. Referencing everything Robert Wyatt's "Rock Bottom" to Fernando Zalamea's "American—An Integral Weave: Transversality, Borders, and Abysses in 19th & 20th Century American Culture," the discussion ends up staging a culinary conversation that hybridizes wet an...2021-11-241h 19Carbonite ConvosRandom Marvel and Star Wars ChatIn episode 53 of the Carbonite Convos Podcast we just have a chat about a bunch of random Marvel and Star Wars stuff!SUBSCRIBE on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/carboniteconvosFandom Facts (Film Easter Eggs & Facts): flow.page/fandomfactsFollow Us On Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carboniteconvos/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@carboniteconvos?lang=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/CarboniteConvosPersonal Social Medias: Instagram, Twitter & TikTokNick: @FunkoStudAlec: @WallCrawlerPops2021-11-231h 05Carbonite ConvosDisney+ Day Recap: Marvel & Star WarsThanks for watching our Disney+ Day recap of everything Marvel and Star Wars!

FlavortoneEpisode 17: The Roast of James BlakeAlec and Nick inaugurate a BBQ Roast sub-series of the podcast, where a guest of honor is subjected to jokes and analysis at their expense. The series begins with a roast of British singer, songwriter, and producer James Blake as a relatively “neutral” starting point for these juicy, sizzling take downs. The conversation discusses the cringe-to-cool and UK Bass continuums, hauntology and paradoxes of post-modernity, personal expression and songwriting, adolescent listening experiences with spatialization, silence, and transparency + more.2021-10-231h 16

Considering a range of malodorous musical and culinary selections, this episode takes up the olfactory sense as reference for how perceptions of the repugnant vs. the delicious are embodied in nuanced discourses on cultural value. Topics include: steamed broccoli, ranch dressing, fish as well as the dubstep producer Stenchman, the Pulitzer Prize winning music of composer Caroline Shaw and the me...2021-10-091h 51Carbonite ConvosVenom Let There Be Carnage Review & Breakdown with SPOILERSThis week's episode of the Carbonite Convos Podcast is our Venom Let There Be Carnage Review & Breakdown with SPOILERS!Thanks for listening!SUBSCRIBE on YouTube:Carbonite Convos: https://www.youtube.com/carboniteconvosCarbonite Convos Podcast: (Find Your Preferred Listening Method)Buzzsprout: https://carboniteconvos.buzzsprout.comFollow Us On Social Media:Twitter: https://twitter.com/CarboniteConvosInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/carboniteco...Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CarboniteCon...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@carboniteconvos?lang=enTikTok #2 (Easter Eggs & Facts): https://www.tiktok.com/@starwarsmcufacts?lang=en2021-10-0551 min
