6 new podcasts Asbjoern Andersen

Posted by Adriane Kuzminski in Sound community highlights


Welcome to part two of our podcast roundup featuring Black sound designers, composers, and audio engineers in the film, music and video games industries.

In this roundup, Front of House Engineer Amanda Davis shares her set up, mixing techniques, and story about how she started working with Janelle Monáe. Composer Chase Bethea and the rest of the Game Audio Hour crew talk about how they’ve been doing (and of course workflows and Reaper!). Designer and Composer Akinlabi Akinbulumo offers great advice about how he came to understand his own feelings of shyness and imposter syndrome by recognizing fear, ego and the scarcity mindset. Composer Calbert Warner (Schematist) shares his process for creating retro boss themes and composes one for a client on the spot. Leslie Gaston-Bird AMPS, M.P.S.E. talks about motherhood and shares advice from the other mothers in audio she has interviewed for her book Women in Audio. For the Game Devs of Color Expo 2019, Game Developer Shawn Alexander Allen hosts a panel with Davionne Gooden, Enongo Lumumba-Kasongo, Mike Eagle and Raheem Jarbo about the influence of hip hop on video games.

As we mentioned in the last roundup, this is part of an ongoing effort to feature more conference talks and podcasts hosted by or featuring Black professionals in sound and music. If you have any recent episodes, shows or presentations to recommend for future recaps, we’d love to hear them! Please comment below or email Adriane at ak (at) asoundeffect (dot) com.

Lumination Tribe – Imposter Syndrome, Ego, and The Creative Process | Akinlabi Akinbulumo On Lumination

Episode outline: On this episode of The Lumination Show, Akinlabi Akinbulumo, Dreamterpreter, Brand Developer, and Visual Artist, talks about the Imposter Syndrome, Ego and the Creative Process. He explores various principles that have worked for him on his creative journey. The myth of competition, the mistakes that people make with their brands, how the brain works, and the nature of fear.

1. Ego is self-protection. Everytime your ego is being displayed, it is you trying to preserve an image that people have of who you are.

2. The only way to move things to your long memory is by repetition. Once your brain can see patterns, it makes it easier to save in our long term memory.

3. You don’t have to try and get attention at the detriment of others.

4. You will learn faster, if you learn how to learn. There is a method to learning.

5. Competition is for the most part, a scarcity mind-set.
