MBP #184 Mr. Wobbles

Today we're joined by Mr. Wobbles, a.k.a. Austin O'Brien — a live loop station artist who's built his own approach to creating music entirely in the moment.

We get into where the name Mr. Wobbles actually came from — which involves a beatboxing Ventrilo server, a wah bass, and a guy who turned out to be a three-time world champ. Austin talks about coming up as a beatboxer when he couldn't afford production gear, doing street performances, and running a touring beatbox troop — and how all of that shaped his obsession with the live element. We also get into why live performance feels so absent from EDM right now, and what he thinks is missing when shows lean harder on production value than on the actual music. And we talk about where he's at now with learning to produce, trying to bridge that gap between his live setup and the in-the-box world.

He's playing 1720 in Los Angeles on April 24th with Honeycomb, so go check that out if you're in the area. Hope you enjoy the episode.
