In der Folge Nr. 54 von "AXLMV - Wir und die Musikwelt" melden sich Axel und Markus aus der intensiven Vorbereitungsphase für die neue Staffel von „Sing meinen Song“ zurück. Nach einer kurzen Winterpause widmen sie sich einem Thema, das die Musikwelt aktuell in Atem hält: Künstliche Intelligenz. Unter dem provokanten Titel „Arbeitslos dank KI“ diskutieren die beiden als praktizierende Musiker über die rasanten Entwicklungen von Tools wie Suno AI und die juristischen Auseinandersetzungen der GEMA gegen OpenAI. Sie beleuchten den spürbaren „Kahlschlag“ im Studioalltag, die ethische Frage nach dem Wert menschlicher Kreativität und die Sorge um den Schutz des Urheberrechts in der EU. Zwischen Zukunftsangst und der Hoffnung auf ein „Handmade-Siegel“ analysieren sie, ob KI jemals den menschlichen „Twang“ und die echte Emotion in der Musik ersetzen kann.Themenwünsche sind gerne willkommen - schreibt uns: axlmv@gmx.deUnd folgt uns auf auf Insta & Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61584727681015https://www.instagram.com/axlmv_wir_und_die_musikwelt
Interview with Jerid O'Connell of The Rousers. The Rousers were formed in 1977 in New York CIty by Jeff Buckland (vocals), Bill Dickson (rhythm guitar), John Hannah (bass), Tom Milmore (lead guitar) and Jerid O'Connell (drums). They auditioned at CBGB, where they were noticed by famed Max's Kansas City booker Peter Crowley. The Rousers genial "Rhythm and Twang" sound soon earned them a following, and the band performed all around the New York area, Washington D.C., Philadelphia and Boston. The Rousers released a single in 1981 on Jimboco Records of "Party Boy" and "Don't Let the Band Stop Playing" produced by MC5 legend Wayne Kramer. (An early limited edition included a red FlexiDisc of "Christmas Party".) In 1982 Sal Capozucca and Brett Wilder respectively took over on drums and bass. This lineup continued until 1984. Jeff Buckland left music and went on to a successful career in animation. The other members went on to various other bands (Bill and Brett joined The Backbones, Tom and Sal to Syntax Error, Treasure Head, etc.) and continued to play and record in the New York area. Around 1986, the Praise Jockeys were formed with Bill, Brett, Tom and Sal. The band featured a heavier, riff happy sound. Their "Look at My Face" CD was released in 2021. Bill, Tom and Sal next formed The Mockingbirds with keyboard player Chris Pondish. The Mockingbirds released the CD "Broken Times" in 2021. That band transformed into The Shambles (Bill, Tom, Sal and Rob Noname). Brett continued to play in several bands, including The Vacant Lot. Around 1995 The Rousers began playing as a quartet with Bill on vocals and guitar, Brett on bass, Tom on guitar and Sal on drums. This lineup recorded several songs at Purple Light Studio in Brooklyn which was released as "All the King's Men" in 2021. Brett left to pursue his musical muse, sometimes rejoining The Rousers, but mainly going his own way. The Rousers continued with Bill now on bass and vocals. Henry Kandel was added on saxophone from about 2000-2002. After that, the Rousers recorded and performed as a trio. The band released a CD ("Playing the Rock and Roll For You") in 2012, and an EP in 2018 ("Kickin'"). Drummer Sal Capozucca died of Covid May 13,2020.

Tillsammans med Åtta45 bjöd vi in till ett liveavsnitt av Insamlingspodden med temat julgransplundring. Ett försök att samla branschen, rensa ut julen och titta på vad vi faktiskt kan lära oss av den. Publiken fick ge sin bild av hur det gått innan vi tog in Mårten Palmefors från Giva Sverige för en dagsfärsk branschbild. Hur gick julen egentligen? Hur ser helåret ut? Och vad är på gång? Därefter pratade vi om en av julens mest generösa insatser: Akelius dubblering av gåvor. Vi välkomnade Jenny Wevill från UNHCR upp på scen och pratade matchning, psykologin bakom ”din gåva dubblas”, vad som krävs internt för att det ska flyga – och hur det faktiskt gick. Kreativitet stod högt på önskelistan från publiken – och då var det självklart att ta upp Civil Rights Defenders, som gjort spel till sitt kreativa vapen. Tillsammans med Anna Magnard pratade vi om hur idén till spelet Käften föddes, hur de jobbar och varför fler organisationer borde våga tänka längre än swishnummer. Avslutningsvis rundade vi av med Friends, som under säsongen blivit ett stående (och helt oplanerat) segment i podden: Veckans Friends-partner. Vi pratade partnerskap på riktigt, hur man hittar rätt samarbeten, hur julen gick för Friends. Och ja, Friends levererade såklart även veckans partner live. Ett liveavsnitt om julen, kreativitet, mod, siffror och framtidstro. Och en påminnelse om varför det är så värdefullt när insamlingsbranschen samlas i samma rum.
The Duo de Twang album is a fun listen, but the shows were where the guys really let loose and silliness reigned. Soya and frequent Twang contributor Wylie Woods drop by to talk about their experience on the road with DDT, including a show that Josh attended which they described as one of the worst of the tour, lousy conditions at Jam Cuirse, and an unexpected success in Europe. The big question: Who drank the most beer? Find out in this episode!Get involvedInstagramFacebookEmailBurn your money
We turn our attention to Duo de Twang, the "vacation fuck-off band" that Les Claypool started after a couple special California gigs gave away to a full-blown vision for a sit-down campfire acoustic project. We chart the project's logisitical and inspirational origins, and discuss the album track-by-track.

Primed By 29 has a fetching title for a Primus fan exploring the solo works of Les Claypool. Although the lyrics don't necessarily refer to anything Primus-related, they're certainly in the wheelhouse of Claypool, who pens another cautionary tale about going too far with recreational drugs in an attempt to create excitement from the mundane. It also happens to be Frankie's favorite track on the album, and we wonder why it didn't make the cut for Duo de Twang a few years later. Get involvedInstagramFacebookEmailBurn your money
Smilo & the Ghost is an Americana-grit folk band born from the rustbelt and rooted in redemption. Front-ed by singer-songwriter Tyler Smilo, the band blends raw lyricism with vintage tones, cinematic storytell-ing, and a touch of cosmic twang. Their sound drifts somewhere between dusty desert highways and dimly lit city bars — a fusion of folk, alt-country, and soul with deep emotional bite.Formed in Erie, PA in 2016, Smilo & the Ghost have shared stages with Grammy winners, national acts, and underground legends alike. Their discography includes Ghost Writers, Fingers Crossed & Godspeed, and the live album Live from PACA, with their newest record Twang & Fire capturing both fire and fragili-ty in a post-pandemic world. Smilo's lyrics are deeply personal, often exploring recovery, survival, and the ghosts we carry — because he's lived it.
I'm pulling back the curtain on my actual low-ticket funnel — what I launched, what I tested, what worked (barely), what flopped hard, and why I'm not giving up on it. If you've been thinking about launching a digital product, testing ads, or growing your list with something people actually buy — this episode lays it all out. Including real numbers, offers I'm experimenting with (like the After Us Guide), and my honest take on what's worth fixing vs. scrapping.
