Thursday August 17th, 2017 with Joe Reilly
Interviews with Cadence Weapon, DF and The Royal Foundry

Today we start by talking to Cadence Weapon. He's back after some time away from album making... but as he explains he's been busy! He has a new album coming out soon and we spin a new track from him. We talk about the importance of making "albums" and what direction(s) his new album will be coming from. He also talks about being the poet laureate for Edmonton and what that entailed. Finally we talk about the use of the term "bitch" to refer to women in hip hop songs. Check out Cadence Weapon this weekend (Friday, August 18 on the Forest Stage) at the Arboretum Festival. https://www.arboretumfestival.com/ http://www.cadenceweaponmusic.com/ Next we talk to Daniel Freder and Dustin Finer who work together as DF. This duo is performing at Pressed tonight (August 17) and in performance they combine Dustin working on looping saxophone sounds while Daniel is creating visual arts and lighting to augment the musical work. Is it music with great visuals or is it an art installation with amazing live music? Maybe it's a hybrid? You'll have to decide for yourself at Pressed tonight. https://dfduo.bandcamp.com/track/face2face Finally we are joined in the studio by Jared Salte and Beth Salte - a married couple who are the core of the Edmonton group The Royal Foundry. The two are touring around Ontario right now to talk about their new album "Lost In Your Head" and will be following up with a performing tour in the Fall. We talk about how to find your own voice and sound creating bright pop music and the production of the new album. http://www.theroyalfoundry.com/band-theroyalfoundry/ Get out and see some live music this week.
