Episode 23: James Goode (Faxed Head)

Composer and all-around audio wizard James Goode joins the podcast for a weird and wide-ranging discussion. A mere sampling of the topics discussed:

• growing up in Provincetown, Mass.
• playing the tape recorder (his first "instrument")
• meeting the Residents (sort of)
• joining Faxed Head
• not joining Caroliner
• studying music at Mills College
• collaborating with prog keyboardist Roger Powell (formerly of Todd Rundgren's Utopia)
• touring Japan

Other topics include synesthesia, eight-channel audio mixes, Cape Cod Piece, interpretive mime, and (towards the end) perhaps the most in-depth discussion of how some of those noises on the Faxed Head records were created.
