WOTS Version 214 with Nate Louis

On this version of the Word On the Street podcast we talk with Nate Louis.  It was great having another podcaster on WOTS. Nate broke down why he started his podcast Raised on Rhythm, and what he wants to get out of it. We talked about his band Blade Palace and some of the strategies they are implementing to create music and content during the pandemic. I asked Nate about what he feels about the Seattle music community, having started his podcasts and performed music in it. Nate and I also talk about our experiences being rideshare drivers. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

The conversation with Nate starts at 9:39

Featured Music:
"Tone Deaf" by Blade Palace off Disconnect
"Massive Soul Overhall" by Asterhouse off Soul Vs. Skin

WOTS Version 213 with Dan Ray

On this version of the Word On the Street podcast we talk with Dan Ray of Dan's Tunes. Dan tells us all about her music journalism website "Dan's Tunes". Before we get into that conversation I asked Dan about her relationship with social media and which platform she is most likely to doom scroll on. We also talked about how the pandemic and the fight for social justice during 2020 effected the content on Dan's Tunes as well as her personal life. Dan also gave us some suggestions, and tips on what musicians can do for their music from the perspective of a music journalist. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

The conversation with Dan starts at 6:00
