The SCI of Music

Music EN ↓ Епізодів: 11

The SCI of music is a podcast where we break down the art and science of Samples, Covers and Interpolations. Each episode, we'll delve into these three fascinating facets of modern music, and I'll share what excites me about these. My AI sidekick, SCI, will provide all the facts, figures and data that support my assertion that Samples, Covers and Interpolations are the greatest form of flattery in music!
