Love Music More (with Scoobert Doobert)Taste, Intution and the Dunning-Kruger Effect in MusicThis episode is as much a message, a reminder, for me as it is a pod for you. Taste and intuition in music (and life) are epic quests, filled with the dangers of arrogance and complacency. The key to growth is always being around (virtually or physically) those that are better than you are. And the path isn't to study every note. It's to learn intuitively. To soak it in. And to fail spectacularly.
All that and more on Music 101, lol.
