The Coast Connect 002

Producers Are Taking Over, AI Fumbles, & Japan Artist Residencies

I’m in LA, it’s almost Summer, and we just got albums from KAYTRANADA, ESTA, AND SANGO…I’m about to go on a 4-hour walk.
But first…

We’re working on the Ripple Effect 002 mix with Catalog Radio and I’d like to invite you to be on this.

We’re asking for exclusive music and we’d like that the song be a collab between you and at least one other person from the FSR community but if it isn’t that’s fine. (we’ll be leaning to do that exclusively for RE 003)

The hard deadline is Friday June 21st. If your song isn’t submitted by then you will not be included in the 002 mix.

Please list whomever you collaborated with on this track in the email.

Also…

We had to postpone last week’s show, but we’re back in action this Wednesday at 6 PM PST / 9 PM EST. Join us tomorrow for Future Surf Radio Ep. 172

This is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things (AI Edition)

Companies need to read the room and proceed with care regarding AI. People are afraid of it. Especially (some) creatives. But, as Meta and Adobe both falter over policy updates, Apple nailed the announcement and is experiencing an all-time high stock price as a result.
