Multi-talented Canadian musician, producer and 3D artist Maylee Todd has just released her concept album MALOO, where she performs as a self-animated avatar of the same name. It’s truly weird and wonderful.

And this episode is full of unusual and hilarious twists and turns. Find out how a laundry mishap nearly destroyed a prized piece of studio gear, how she comes up with voices for characters in video games, and which of her beloved instruments she would never sell, even to Randy Jackson.

Ep 49: Braxe + Falcon's $400 dream speakers

Alan Braxe and DJ Falcon are pioneers of French house music, releasing on Thomas Bangalter’s Roulé label. In 1998, Braxe released ‘Music Sounds Better With You’ as one-third of Stardust, while DJ Falcon broke out with tracks like ‘Together’. Now the producers (also cousins) are teaming up to release new music as duo Braxe + Falcon.

In this episode, learn about Braxe’s penchant for affordable speakers, the lesser-known converters they use for all mixes, why they love modular and which esoteric French polysynth makes the cut.

Ep 51: Shadow Child won't take a CS-80

Simon Neale shot to fame with his original alias Dave Spoon, racking up club hits and chart crossovers with his Electro-House sound. Then he hit the reset button, returned to his underground roots, and rebranded as Shadow Child. But as a consummate gear nut, he might have some problems slimming down his rig for the Forever Studio.

In this episode, learn how he treats his 909s to make them sound production-ready, which modern polysynth he adores, and why there's only one plug-in that he can't live without.
