Cuckoo, Margaret Harmer, and Huston Singletary on the Music Production Podcast

I’ve been having some incredible conversations on the Music Production Podcast in the last few weeks. It amazes me how much we can learn from each other if we spend a little time talking.

Here are the three latest episodes, all extremely useful in their own way.

Cuckoo

Cuckoo is one of the internet’s most fun and helpful music tech personalities. I’ve enjoyed his work for years, and he’s helped me learn how to use some of my favorite gear. It was great to finally get a chance to speak with him.

I first came across Cuckoo in 2011 when he started producing some of the best OP-1 tutorials, which showed me creative ways to use the OP-1.
