In this episode:

You will hear about…

  • Rhetoric and the importance of knowing the true meaning of words
  • How we define music that has feel
  • Mike’s thoughts concerning speed and musicality
  • A dream Mike had
  • Virgil Donati
  • Thoughts on gratitude

Why you should listen:

It’s important to hear Mike’s thoughts regarding the words we use and their true meaning. We hear folks talking about how speed isn’t musical and certain genres having feel while others don’t. These topics interest many people and Mike makes a lot of sense with what he has to say. Plus, you’ll hear about a dream Mike had that enabled him to achieve a goal.
