Why This Episode Matters:DJ Grumble's story flips the myth of the “tortured full-time artist” on its head. A medicinal chemist by training, he treats his beat-making with the same rigor as a lab experiment, balancing structure and spontaneity while managing a startup, research deadlines, and a thriving music catalog. His journey shows that creativity and discipline aren't opposites; they're two sides of the same molecule.Explore the Stories Behind the BeatsLove diving into the stories behind the beats? Subscribe to ProducerHead and join producers and creatives exploring the ideas, habits, and inspiration that drive great music.Who is DJ Grumble:Producer, DJ, and chemist. Known for a massive catalog of soulful, sample-based beats, DJ Grumble built a cult following through SoundCloud, YouTube, and Bandcamp. DJ Grumble has produced tracks for RIAA-certified gold and platinum artists such as Ari Lennox and Surfaces, and his work has been featured in TV shows, movies, and video games, all while holding a PhD-level background in nano-medicine and now serving as co-founder of a cancer biotech startup in the Bay Area.What We Dive Into:* Parallels between scientific experimentation and sampling* Managing expectations and finding work-life balance* How to release fearlessly and build a catalog that compounds* The “quantity vs. quality” myth and the power of consistency* Business 101 for producers: PROs, SongTrust, and royalties* Collaboration, taste, and why addition is often subtraction* Merging two worlds: creativity and chemistryThree Key Takeaways:* Consistency > Perfection: Grumble's catalog exploded when he stopped over-editing and started releasing — one beat every week. He learned that fans, not artists, decide what hits.* Science and Sound Share the Same DNA: Sampling and chemistry both start with raw materials and transform them through experimentation. Grumble's scientific mindset fuels his musical process.* Manage Your Expectations: Whether it's the lab or the music business, results take time. Success compounds slowly — and you can only collect on your creativity if you understand the systems that pay you.Before You Go:What's your version of the “lab?” The place where you put in steady, focused work that no one sees? Take a page from Grumble's book: set aside even 30 minutes a day to experiment, release without fear, and let time and repetition refine your craft.Chapters:0:00 – Intro0:27 – From chemistry to beats2:12 – Parallels between science and sampling5:48 – Balancing lab work and creativity7:53 – Quantity vs. quality mindset9:21 – Sharing music fearlessly13:31 – Free beats and virality14:22 – Optimism and managing expectations19:37 – Business 101: royalties, PROs, and SongTrust28:00 – Catalog strategy and viral growth32:26 – Collaboration and cross-pollination35:22 – Being objective and learning from failure40:28 – Shortcut tools, taste, and Tracklib50:03 – Can you teach taste?53:25 – Advice for upcoming producers55:07 – Motivation, obligation, and gratitude57:09 – Upcoming projects and vinyl reissues58:43 – Favorite gear and plugins1:21:04 – Habits that sabotage creativity1:25:12 – Work-life balance and “palate cleanse”1:28:10 – What people misunderstand about the industry1:30:48 – Movies, books, and advice1:39:33 – Books every producer should read1:42:34 – Integrating both lives: lab + music1:46:22 – Knowing when a beat is finished1:49:20 – Closing thoughtsList of References from the Interview:Songs / Artists:* MF DOOM & Madlib – Madvillainy* J Dilla – Donuts* Pete Rock – PetestrumentalsBooks / Authors / Podcasts:* Perennial Seller by Ryan Holiday* Atomic Habits by James Clear* Scratch (documentary by Doug Pray)* Roald Dahl* Hatchet by Gary PaulsenProducts / Gear:* Player Pro by Quadmation (DAW)* Pioneer CDJ-800* Pioneer DVJ-X1* Casio RZ-1 Sampler* Tracklib* North Pole VST* Room Machine 844* RubyTube pluginsConnect with DJ Grumble:* YouTube: @dj_grumble* Instagram: @djgrumble* Spotify: DJ Grumble* Apple Music: DJ GrumbleConnect with Toru:* Website: torubeat.com* Instagram: @torubeat* YouTube: @torubeat* Spotify: Toru* Apple Music: ToruCredits:This episode was co-produced, engineered and edited by Matthew Diaz.

Following his big Prop 50 win last week, Governor Gavin Newsom hit the road, denouncing the Democrats' deal to end the federal shutdown, accepting the thanks of worshipful Democrats in Houston, and appearing as the highest-ranking American representative at the U.N.'s climate talks in Brazil. In other news, Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr and OpenAI's Sam Altman say they feel bad about making so much money, Santa Barbara County officials stand bravely athwart common sense and yell stop, and a federal judge orders AG Rob Bonta to explain himself on the state's policies regarding gender fluidity in California schools. On this day in history, we remember the Rickenbackers of California -- the World War I flying ace and his guitar-making cousin.

In Zohran Mamdani's victory speech after being elected New York City's new mayor, he thanked those often forgotten by the politics of the city, the “Yemeni bodega owners and Mexican abuelas. Senegalese taxi drivers and Uzbek nurses. Trinidadian line cooks and Ethiopian aunties.” It got us thinking about the people who make up our Bay Area cities and whether they are represented by our politics.

Hi everyone! Today I'm talking with Bay Area photographer Ryan Shaver, who shoots exclusively on Polaroid. We get into how he built a business around instant film, what makes the medium so different to work with, and how he's carved out a unique spot in the industry.Meet Ryan: Ryan Shaver is a Polaroid photographer based in the San Francisco Bay Area who stands out in the professional photography world for shooting exclusively on Polaroid. After completing his graduate research paper, Predictive Processing for Artificial Intelligence & Cognition, Ryan leaned fully into instant film as a way to preserve memories with honesty and imperfection.In 2022, he bet that people would eventually grow tired of the overly polished look of AI-generated imagery and crave something real. He went all in on a niche few pursue due to its high costs and challenges, landing his first client within a year. Since 2023, Ryan has photographed weddings, portraits, and major corporate events — including a recent donors event at the Exploratorium — and now also serves as the Creative Director for Siempre Golden clothing brand.Connect with Ryan:Corporate Holiday Party Season is coming up, and Ryan is still taking bookings!The first ten people to book a wedding package next year, if they drop the code "SUMMER", will get 10% the total negotiated package price.Website: shaver.filmInstagram: @shaver.filmConnect with Me:Subscribe to our emails for updates on all things Summer School!SUBSCRIBE HEREShow Notes: the-summerschool.comInstagram: @summergrace.photo @the_summerschool Shop My Products:Become a Member of Summer SchoolMy Summer Grace x G-Presets (discount code: SUMMERSCHOOL)My Pricing Guide

Show Description: In this episode of Backstage Bay Area, host Steve Roby interviews pianist and composer Edward Simon to discuss the trio Three Visitors, a deeply collaborative project with bassist Scott Colley and drummer Brian Blade. This trio consists of three composers writing for one another, built on a long history, shared language, and deliberate listening. We talk about how the group developed from their New York connections in the 1990s, how the new album on GroundUP Music was created with guests like Chris Potter and Becca Stevens, and what Bay Area audiences can expect when Three Visitors performs at the Joe Henderson Lab at SFJAZZ. What we cover in this episode:· Edward's musical roots in Venezuela and his path through New York's jazz scene· How he, Scott Colley, and Brian Blade discovered their “we-already-know-each-other” chemistry· Why Three Visitors is a fully collaborative project, not “Edward Simon's trio”· Writing music that invites conversation, space, and high-level improvisation· Deep dive on the album track “You Are” — a meditation on human potential, with strings and Chris Potter· How vocalist Becca Stevens reshaped “I Wanna Be With You” and why the trio welcomes guests· What changes (and what doesn't) when they bring this music into an intimate room like the Joe Henderson Lab· How the group keeps sets fluid so each show feels like a new “visit” About the album — Three VisitorsShow Description: In this episode of Backstage Bay Area, host Steve Roby interviews pianist and composer Edward Simon to discuss the trio Three Visitors, a deeply collaborative project with bassist Scott Colley and drummer Brian Blade.

Rick and Jay talk about stupid mistakes, shoe money, James Burrows, Cheers, directing people, not getting the girl, and the moment you reveal your big secret and no one cares.Bio: Rick Beren grew up in the Sixties and Seventies in the very liberal Bay Area. Even then, he managed to push the boundaries of tolerance of his parents, teachers, and eventually, the law. Mostly minor indiscretions, and all (always) in the pursuit of fun, but it landed him in the Vacaville State prison for selling one quarter gram of cocaine. The quality was so poor, he should've been convicted of false advertising. Anyway, his girlfriend also was sent to State prison (unfortunately, not by his side) for women. She had sold the same undercover agent, some 200 amphetamine pills. They were in college at the time (1977) and spent about 5 months in jail. The story of Ricks book is told with humor, compassion and a what the fuck attitude of how could this little, entitled, Jew end up in prison with Charles Manson and his ilk? As I say, He was probably always headed in that direction. Speaking of direction. In less than five years after his release, he was the director's assistant on his favorite show, Cheers. Rick found his life calling and immersed himself in the bliss of being around these amazingly talented people. He worked his way up the ladder and became a director himself and on that very show! He went on to direct many shows and worked in the industry for four decades. Along the way, he fell into an amazing relationship (with a girl who was not an ex-con) and they have two (so far not ex-con) daughters. Life turned out pretty fucking great. And the highlight of his life and career was being able to spend time with Jay ( the legend) Kogen in an intimate (edited) two hour conversation. Jay wants his time backing the form of a poker game where he can monetize his efforts.

Hr 4: In the final hour of the Morning Roast, Spadoni and Shasky close the show talking to Aaron Gordon's old basketball coach Tim Kennedy, who provides insight of what kind of a player Aaron was and how he transformed into the player he is today.

Erez Druk grew up in Israel, but has been in the Bay Area for many years. He has a common theme in his life of obsessing over his current thing. In the 4th grade it was the saxophone, and later on it was being Israel's board game champion, and then - he became obsessed with startups. Outside of tech, he is married and expecting his first child. He's into exercising, reading and coffee. His favorite is going to a coffee shop with his wife, and having a cappuccino and a pastry - but at home, he leans towards his aeropress.Eight years ago, Erez met his wife who was heading into medical school.

The salient point of our discussion today revolves around the significant weather events currently impacting various regions across the United States. We commence with the early season influences from the Pacific, which have resulted in heavy rainfall and mountain snow in the Northwest and Northern California, alongside coastal hazards affecting Oregon and the Bay Area. Furthermore, the Northeast is experiencing the aftermath of a strong cold front, characterized by brisk winds that have led to scattered outages and downed limbs in Connecticut. Additionally, Alaska's marine zones are grappling with severe freezing conditions and gale warnings, while Hawaii is under a high surf advisory, posing risks to coastal activities. We conclude with an overview of the broader weather landscape, noting the absence of active cyclones in the tropics, thus providing a comprehensive summary of the current meteorological challenges.Takeaways:* The Pacific Northwest is experiencing early season impacts, including heavy rain and mountain snow.* Connecticut has reported scattered outages and downed limbs following overnight wind bursts.* A high surf advisory is in effect for Hawaii, affecting north and east facing shores.* Coastal hazards and minor flooding are anticipated around the Bay Area during high tide periods.* Strong winds and hazardous marine conditions are expected in Long Island Sound this morning.* Minor flooding is possible in Oregon due to ongoing coastal flood warnings and high surf advisories.Sources[NWS Seattle | https://www.weather.gov/sew/][NWS Portland | https://www.weather.gov/pqr/][NWS San Francisco/Monterey | https://www.weather.gov/mtr/][NWS Boston Weather Story | https://www.weather.gov/box/weatherstory][CTInsider | https://www.ctinsider.com/weather/article/ct-road-closures-thursday-storm-damage-21142460.php][NWS Anchorage | https://www.weather.gov/afc][NWS Honolulu Watches/Warnings | https://www.weather.gov/hfo/watchwarn][NHC | https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIATWOAT.shtml][USGS Latest Earthquakes (Past Day) | https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/][NWS Anchorage | https://www.weather.gov/afc][NWS “Heavy Freezing Spray Warning” summary | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=Heavy+Freezing+Spray+Warning][NWS San Francisco/Monterey | https://www.weather.gov/mtr/][NWS Sacramento | https://www.weather.gov/sto/][CTInsider | https://www.ctinsider.com/weather/article/ct-road-closures-thursday-storm-damage-21142460.php][NWS Boston Weather Story | https://www.weather.gov/box/weatherstory][NWS Honolulu Watches/Warnings | https://www.weather.gov/hfo/watchwarn][NWS Honolulu Surf Forecast | https://www.weather.gov/hfo/SRF][NWS Boston Weather Story | https://www.weather.gov/box/weatherstory][Boston 25 News advisory roundup | https://www.boston25news.com/news/local/weather-alert-high-wind-warnings-watches-posted-mass-gusts-up-60-mph/3K2HHB44KBA7HDIREZHE47LVNY/][NWS Great Falls | https://www.weather.gov/tfx/][NWS New York, NY | https://www.weather.gov/okx/][PIX11 via Yahoo — wind impacts roundup | https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/strong-damaging-winds-cause-chaos-111326054.html][NWS Portland | https://www.weather.gov/pqr/][NWS Medford (hazards & high surf) | https://www.weather.gov/mfr/][NWS Seattle | https://www.weather.gov/sew/][NWS Seattle AFD | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?issuedby=SEW&product=AFD&site=SEW] This is a public episode.

Haunted Mansion was a blast! 3 rooms of beats and Halloween vibes in a fantastic venue with the best crowd in the Bay Area! At first I was working on a dark breaks and electro set for Haunted Mansion, but then I saw our line up—Fort Knox Five, Mancub, and I were b2b2b in the 200 Channels room of the party. And of course there was only one thing to do... I did a quick pivot from the dark side to the funky side! This set's a bunch of new and old disco and funk remixes, plus some flipped gems I've been sitting on, and a few Halloween classics. Enjoy! - 8b

Drawn to the tangible nature of property ownership and the hands-on process of buying her first home, she found herself captivated by real estate in a way the stock market never quite inspired. Tune in to hear her journey from curiosity to action, the lessons she's learned along the way, and how she's turning her passion for real estate into a path toward financial freedom.
