Hey everyone! Dive into Episode 92 of Living Room Music with us, where we turn up the vibes and creativity in our cozy studio. This episode is like a musical adventure, packed with unique tunes and cool collabs that'll definitely keep your ears hooked.

What's Inside:

  • First up, we've got "Let Me" – a track that kinda just flowed out of us as we got into the groove of things. It's one of those pieces that hits right in the feels and shows off what happens when we all just vibe together.
  • Then, there's "Whispers in the Downpour," which is as cool as it sounds. We played this game where we each added our bit without knowing what the others did, and bam – we ended up with this awesome track that's a bit haunting and totally beautiful.
  • Rounding it off, we stepped out of our comfort zone with "ABC Games," a Trap-inspired banger. It was a bit of a challenge at first, but man, did it turn out to be fire! It's all about breaking through those creative blocks and just going for it.

Extra Goodies:

And hey, don't miss out on the special treat from TaiLee333. She brought her A-game with a song that’s all heart and soul, plus her killer vocals and guitar. It's a sweet addition that brings even more flavor to the mix.

Chill Vibes:

This episode isn't just about the tunes; it's about the journey we went on making them. From chilling and warming up to pushing our limits and seeing what we're capable of when we join forces. Episode 92 is a vibe – it's about us coming together, trying new things, and making music that's as real and raw as it gets.

About the Podcast

Living Room Music
I established this podcast as a personal writing challenge, aiming to continually push myself to explore the depths of music creation. To maintain this drive, I've set a self-imposed publishing deadline every Friday at 6 PM EST.
Rather than seeking fame or fortune, my main goal is to discover music that resonates with me, something I haven't experienced before. Throughout this journey, I immerse myself in a wide array of electronic music, drawing inspiration from various sources to infuse fresh ideas into my own compositions. I relish experimenting with novel techniques and tonalities, always on the lookout for unique sounds.
My work embraces the mathematical intricacies of music theory, exploring new ways to manipulate sounds and embracing the spirit of improvisation. Above all, my music is a celebration of joy and love for the creative process, capturing the essence of fun and passion in playing and crafting melodies.

Profile picture for Nathan Eckenrode

Nathan Eckenrode

From the womb to the stage, N8K99's life has been a symphony of diverse musical experiences. His journey began with melodies echoing in his mother's womb during her piano recitals and evolved through debates over musical alphabets in kindergarten. N8K99's early classical training under his mother's tutelage seamlessly transitioned into a passion for the improvisational freedom of Free Jazz, idolizing legends like Maynard Ferguson, Miles Davis, and Chet Baker. His teenage curiosity led him to a pawn shop guitar, igniting a spark that would illuminate his path through various musical endeavors.
Post-Navy life found N8K99 in Jacksonville, Florida, where punk rock's raw energy collided with his burgeoning talent, resulting in a series of ephemeral bands. New York City called next, presenting a harsh reality of talent and competition. His days oscillated between roles as a PA, bike messenger, book mover, and the occasional subway busker, honing his skills in the city's vibrant music scene. A chance encounter with Wu Tang Clan during a jam session marked a turning point, embedding a sense of belonging within the industry's fabric.
N8K99's musical style defies categorization, a testament to his journey across genres and geographies. His sound is an eclectic blend, rooted in classical music theory, adorned with jazz improvisation, and electrified by electronic production. He finds solace and challenge in his podcast, "Living Room Music by N8K99," a weekly expedition into new musical territories, collaborating with local Hip Hop artists, exploring emotional tones, and experimenting with various modalities.
Despite his mastery, N8K99 remains the industry's "invisible man," focusing on the art rather than the fame. His elusive double album "Chromatic Depression" whispers of his presence in the digital music realm, but it's his dedication to the craft that truly defines him. N8K99's vision extends beyond personal acclaim; through Eckenrode Muziekopname, he aspires to elevate Jacksonville's local talent, creating a digital collective to champion and disseminate their artistry globally.
With his feet firmly planted in Jacksonville, N8K99 envisions a future of continued musical exploration with his band Radio Poets, his podcast, and EM. His ambition is not of glittering fame but of a sustainable, fulfilling musical journey, evolving as a Middle Class musician who navigates the industry's tides with a whimsical yet determined spirit.
