"Top Of The World" The Emmy Award-nominated Mark Bacino is more than just a craftsman of pure pop magic--he's a producer, composer, educator and journalist. I first got on board with Mark's music in 2003 for his brilliant album Million Dollar Milkshake, which was the follow-up to his equally brilliant debut, Pop Job. Since then, he's put out Queens English in 2010 and fifteen years later he's backed that up with his brand new album Top Of The World. A sterling ten-song set, Top Of The World is filled with hooks galore, but it's also Bacino's most observational and philosophical work yet. Filled with tracks like the thrilling percussive stomp of Not That Guy to the horny swagger of Flop Of The World, Bacino has never sounded more assured. Falling somewhere between Marshall Crenshaw and Mike Viola, Bacino's music is a refreshing and charming streetsmart pop. I call him the Cole Porter of Queens because his lyrics are clever, his timing impeccable and his humor and wisdom always on full display. Bacino is the owner of The Queens English Recording Co., a boutique studio-music production house where he produces fellow artists and composes for TV/advertising. He currently serves as Producer of New Media and Audio Content for Queens Public Television in New York City where he's earned those two Emmy nominations for his audio engineering work and he hosts both the “Queens Creative” and “Queens County USA” podcasts. He also writes for Guitar World, SonicScoop and Songwriter's Market. www.markbacino.com (http://www.markbacino.com) www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers The Podcast Twitter: @emberseditor IG: @emberspodcast

Tech writer and content strategist David Weiss joins Tatiana and Josh to mix two things that would go really well together: music and crypto.  David was an early adopter of Bitcoin, but he was not seriously involved until an opportunity to write about blockchain projects came along in 2018. With his background in music, he became especially interested in projects like Token.fm and Tatianacoin.  This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship for art and crypto. A decentralized and immutable ledger in the music world would make sure that everyone, including sound engineers would get credit for their work.  And even though it is not all about the money, it is also about that. Tatiana shares the financial reality of producing a record and lists opportunities of monetization for artists on the blockchain. There are plenty of ways for artists to own and be able to transfer their fan base, including issuing their own tokens. The conversation ends on a positive note for the future of music, even when artists are stuck at home.  About the Guest:David Weiss is the co-founder/co-editor of SonicScoop.

Then, you won't want to miss Alan Silverman's full presentation on the current and future state of loudness in music making, as he describes how streaming services have taken us "through the looking glass" into an upside-down world where loud has become quiet, quiet has become loud—and the way we make records will never be the same again.
