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.
