Has music become too easy to make?
In the early 2020’s, Big Tech companies unleashed AI on the world. One of the things you can get AI to do, is write and produce music. You just tell the software what type of music you want it to create, and it does it with the click of a button. Surely this will change the music industry completely! Well….yes…it probably will. But in the opinion of music producer Luke Jones, it’s not likely to be quite as big a change to the existing music industry, as some people t...

#BrokenRecord and the REAL problem with streaming!
Almost 18 months into making this documentary podcast series, music producer Luke Jones was approached by a journalist, who wanted a comment from a music industry professional for an article. Secretly overjoyed that FINALLY people were considering him a valuable industry commentator, he was quickly dissappointed to learn, that the article was yet another piece about the poor financial returns artists receive from streaming platforms. So what is ACTUALLY going on with this issue? Are artists and musicians being completely ripped-off, or is the issue a bit more complicated than it first appears?

How a Young Indie Band was signed by Alan McGee.
One thing you rarely hear in the music business, is an honest account of how a band ACTUALLY got signed. Loads of acts are happy to talk about themselves and their music, but often their biography cuts from "we met in high school and started jamming"....to "....and then Sony released our album". I don't know about you...but it's the bit inbetween that interests me!

Good News of Great Joy
At Christmas, the angel came to the shepherds to announce Good News. When the Church tries to pass on this message today, sometimes we make it sound like Good Advice.

Episode 138: God Over Good, with Luke Norsworthy
My guest is Luke Norsworthy. His new book is God Over Good. It's hard to say that God is good when God isn't always what we expect good to be. A good father wouldn't make it so difficult to get to know him, would he? And if God is all-powerful, wouldn't he ensure that we never suffered? Either our understanding of God is incorrect, or our definition of good is inadequate. In a world that is messy and a church that is imperfect, it's easy to let our faith be lost. But that doesn't mean we have...
