It was a personal thrill of mine to have MIDI MAFIA on the show this week. If you don’t know this production duo, you should. They have produced jams with 50 Cent such as 21 Questions, and have obtained huge success licensing their urban tracks to Film & TV through their MADE series with Extreme Music. Have a listen as Dirty Swift, Bruce Waynne, and our host chop it up.

This week we had the absolute honor of sitting down with David Francisco. You’ve heard his music on many a show, but you probably know him as the guy that made Katy Perry cry during his American Idol audition. This brave-soul sat down with Jake and told his inspirational story.

For our latest episode, Jake traveled out to Siddhartha Khosla’s studio for a chat. Khosla is currently composing This Is Us for NBC, and Marvel’s Runaways with Hulu and his band Goldspot has also been featured on various projects. His emotional, transcendent score is unique and certainly leaves a mark on viewers. Have a listen to Siddhartha detail how it all gets done!
