Cleats bite into the icy path and the ice snaps in response. The forest path, packed down by months of winter boots, is slick, and slippery, even with the cleats on.It always amazes me how the different types and depths of ice and icy snow make all kinds of crunchy sounds as I walk. You can hear the stream as it flows, coming to life with all the water running off the forest and into the creak. It's lovely, and kind of magical. Just a wee taste of life in Ottawa as the world reawakens, birds tweet and geese honk.I hope you've subscribed to us wherever you get your podcasts; please, share my work widely, give us a review or a drop us a few stars, it really does help.

"This record is somebody's pathway to not jumping off that ledge." With that profound truth, Maurice “Piranhahead” Herd ushers listeners into a sonic and spiritual odyssey on Detroit is Different. A master craftsman of music and energy, Piranhahead unpacks how his Mississippi roots led through Muskegon to Detroit's east side, eventually shaping a global funk and house music legacy rooted in community and Black excellence. From making cassette deck beats as a kid to orchestrating full string arrangements for legends, he reflects, “It's more to life than the funk.” His stories stretch from shoveling snow at Grandma's to jamming with Enemy Squad, to late-night spiritual calls with mentor Paul Riser. Whether recalling his Detroit studio days with Mollywop or being moved by Donny Hathaway, Piranhahead reminds us, “Some records will change somebody's life… everything, the heart got to be there.” He challenges Detroiters not to give up their land, not to forget their sound, and to reclaim the city's rhythm. “Detroit is heaven now... got a little hell in it though.” Detroit is Different is a podcast hosted by Khary Frazier covering people adding to the culture of an American Classic city. Visit www.detroitisdifferent.com to hear, see and experience more of what makes Detroit different. Follow, like, share, and subscribe to the Podcast on iTunes, Google Play, and Sticher.

Let's talk about books today. What was the last book that inspired you? Was it a novel, a non-fiction book, a design book, a music book or a cookbook?    In this episode, I share three books that inspired my sound way of thinking, experiencing the world with an open ear and what has led to developing music thinking, the framework, the jam cards, the book and the podcast.  I will briefly discuss Nada Brahma by Joachim Ernst Berend, The Soundscape by R. Murray Schafer, and The Glass Bead Game, the prize-winning novel by Hermann Hesse. These three books directly and indirectly influenced the ideas in The Power of Music Thinking.  But my book also influenced another author, and he used parts of the music thinking framework described in the book to explain his idea of rebels in digital development in Belgium.  Today I speak with Geert de Mol, a CDO for the leading Belgian Bank for 16 years, during their development of ‘the best app in the world'. Geert is a music lover of rock and pop, and he shares with us how music thinking and the book helped him to pen his story.   Show notes Connect with Geert: https://www.linkedin.com/in/geert-van-mol-1779812/  Music from the world of Anathem: https://soundcloud.com/ztutz/sets/iolet-music-from-the-world-of-anathem    Show support Please choose one or more of the ‘three ways to support the show': Subscribe to the podcast.

This soundscape is inspired by Ada Lovelace, an inventor. She watched the birds from her window as they flew between branches. Drift off to the sounds of birds and crickets chirping, and wind rustling through the trees. This soundscape was produced with Katie Sprenger with sound design and mixing by Craig Billmeier. Until next time, stay rebel!

Celebrate the soothing embrace of love with The River of Love, a special Valentine's Day sleep soundscape designed to fill your night with warmth, harmony, and deep relaxation. This episode features 639 Hz ambient piano music, a frequency known to enhance love, connection, and emotional balance. The gentle flow of a calm river blends seamlessly with soft white noise, creating a tranquil space where your mind and heart can unwind. Enhanced with 14 Hz beta wave binaural beats, this soundscape gently uplifts your mood while guiding you into a state of peaceful relaxation.

Today we speak to Hildegard Westerkamp, the pioneering composer, radio artist and sound ecologist. The centerpiece of all of her work is a close attention to the sonic environment and its relation to culture. We will listen to excerpts of six soundscape compositions made between 1975 and 2005, all of which reward the close listener–conceptually and aesthetically–with a deeper relationship to the sonic environment.  Mack Hagood interviewed Westerkamp shortly after the death of R. Murray Schafer in late 2021. Westerkamp worked closely with Schafer in the early 1970s and she graciously agreed to talk about him despite the grief being fresh. They also discussed her own amazing career and that's the part of the tape we are sharing in this episode. They talk about her formative years as a 20-something working with Schafer and his World Soundscape Project and then we jump into a number of her compositions, ending with the piece “Breaking News” from 2012.  Incredibly, she said Mack was the first person to ever ask her about that piece, even though it is one of her favorites. And sure enough, not long after this interview she released a retrospective album on Earsay Music called Breaking News, which features that piece and a number of others created between 1988 and 2012.  For our Patreon members we have the full, unedited interview for those who want to hear all her thoughts on R. Murray Schafer and her career. Join at Patreon.com/phantompower.  And a quick correction: Hildegard wanted me to clarify that the sentence “When there is no sound, hearing is most alert,” which she uses in “Whisper Study,” is a quote from the Indian mystic Kirphal Singh in his book Naam (or Word). Pieces featured in this episode:  “Gently Penetrating beneath the Sounding Surfaces of Another Place” (1997) “Whisper Study” (1975) “Fantasie for Horns” (1978) “A Walk through the City” (1981) “Für Dich – For You” (2005) “Breaking News” (2002) Today's show was written and edited by Mack Hagood.
