In this episode, I dive deep with the incredibly talented Josh Butler, a figure revered for his musical mastery. Fresh off seeing him perform at House Calls, our conversation unveils surprising insights, especially around his creative process.
Josh's humble approach to music creation will resonate with many; he often crafts his best tracks with just headphones and a laptop. His journey shatters the misconception that one needs high-end equipment to produce quality music. In reality, it's more about skill, passion, and creativity.
We also explore the origins of his own label, which bridges the gap between house music generations. With collaborations involving legends like Marshall Jefferson, Robert Owens, and Kerri Chandler, the label becomes a musical history lesson.
Finally, Josh emphasizes the importance of artists finding their unique sound. Drawing from a rich tapestry of influences - from early house to dub reggae and UK rave music - he exemplifies how an artist can mold diverse inspirations into a distinct style.
Join us as we debunk myths, celebrate the connective power of music, and encourage every aspiring artist to find their unique voice in the vast world of electronic music.
