Ep. 54 - CJ Johnson - Film Composer and Producer

This week your buds celebrate the one year anniversary of the podcast in style - with remote recording technical difficulties! Even through the starts and stops, we still managed to talk about how Dave’s a NARC for carrot cake, rock stars are quarantined just like us and offering lessons (specifically Robby Krieger and Johnny Marr), Chicago love for The Last Dance, a Local H video contest, VH1’s Behind the Music and stanning The Who, and ignoring the lyrics in Talking Heads Remain in Light. We even found a little time to talk some new apps including Kovaluu Beats and Loops and the Library of Congress unleashing Citizen DJ. Finally, we dove into CJ’s path through the music world, taking the leap into audio engineering, transitioning into a successful life as a film composer, and how as always it’s Tom Schraeder’s Ego connecting us all.
