あらすじ・解説
Joseph Pepin is a music manager extraordinaire and A&R consultant from New Jersey. He joins us from Austin, Texas where he is based to talk all things music industry related; from his background as a kid enamored by bands and shows happening in Asbury Park to street teaming and managing bands which lead to his days as a plucky A&R at Island Def Jam Mercury. We talk about the differences between being a music manager and an A&R person and how he helps Primary Wave's catalogue music get re-imagined by contemporary artists. He tells us about his management clients including Kumo99 and Goldford, how Johan Lenox adds the sauce to huge songs and albums, and the not so secret weapons that are producers Donny Bravo and Charlie Heat. We talk about him co-founding 'Nowhere Coffee Club' coffee company, the ritual that involves making French Press, and Yash's fastidiousness about barista blend almond milk consistency. Capping off the episode is Joe's Top 5 featuring songs from Quadeca, Jamie XX, Maruja and more.
