00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:23,200
All right, as promised, we've got a special guest on today's Daily Source Code.

2
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:27,200
First time we've actually turned the Hilltop Watch Tower Crackpot Command Center Studio

3
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:34,200
into something that actually kind of resembles, kind of like a studio, I guess.

4
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:35,200
A little bit.

5
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:36,200
You back and forth, welcome.

6
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:37,200
Hi, thanks.

7
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:38,200
Hey, man.

8
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:39,200
Oh, hold on me.

9
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,200
Let me, uh, let me, uh, just take a wee bit of off for a second.

10
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:48,200
It's a little weird when we're talking when you got nothing but reverb.

11
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:54,200
So you, um, actually, uh, I met through, uh, your sister who was working for, uh, for

12
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:58,200
Mickey and San Francisco said, uh, you know, she's like totally hawk and you're totally

13
00:00:58,200 --> 00:00:59,200
plugging the shit out of your stuff.

14
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,200
Like, oh, you got to listen to CD is really good.

15
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:06,200
And then, uh, and so, uh, me can't listen to, I was like, wow, this guy's really huge.

16
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:07,200
Are you sure he's Dutch?

17
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,200
It's like, and the first thing I noticed, man, is your accent is, is impeccable.

18
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,200
I mean, you can almost can't tell your Dutch.

19
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:15,200
Right, do I can?

20
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,200
But, uh, no, yeah, true, true.

21
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,200
So where did you learn to speak with such a great American accent?

22
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,200
Uh, TV.

23
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,200
Just, we just come a little bit closer to the mic because I can't, it's hard for me to work

24
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,200
the board and everything all the same time.

25
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,200
I only have two hands and, you know, I got to smoke as well.

26
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:36,200
Um, so now, uh, your, uh, professional musician as in, you do this for a living.

27
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,200
I do.

28
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:38,200
I do.

29
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,200
And, uh, you're living in the Netherlands, but thinking of maybe giving it a try over here

30
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,200
in the States.

31
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,200
Uh, I'm fan-to-planning it, fan-to-sizing and planning it.

32
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,200
Okay.

33
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:47,200
Good.

34
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,200
It's like a little recon mission.

35
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:53,200
And then Mickey actually asked you to come and perform at an art expo that she was doing in Amsterdam.

36
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,200
Yes.

37
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,200
And I was like, and he had, uh, three guys, right?

38
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:58,200
Yeah.

39
00:01:58,200 --> 00:01:59,200
Or was it just one other guy?

40
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,200
I had one friend of mine with me in a percussion player from Venezuela.

41
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,200
Uh, we've been friends for some time and, uh, you know,

42
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:05,200
whenever I can, I hire him.

43
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:09,200
He was just like banging on some piece of wood like he was sitting on a box, you know.

44
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:14,200
It's called a cahoon and it's, uh, replaces a full drum kit basically and you play.

45
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,200
Really?

46
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,200
You play with two hands, it's got a little snare inside, so it sounds like a kid.

47
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:18,200
I have two cahoones.

48
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,200
Is that kind of the same thing?

49
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,200
One cahoon, two cahoones?

50
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,200
Yeah, you need big cahoones.

51
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,200
So you don't have, uh, any percussion with you today?

52
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:27,200
No, it's just me.

53
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,200
And, uh, you've got your fender, uh, strata cast right in my point out.

54
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,200
Uh, you've got it.

55
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,200
What kind of gear?

56
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,200
Because we're plugged directly into the board here, what you got?

57
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:35,200
Yes.

58
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,200
I brought a little line six device called the, uh, the pocket pod,

59
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,200
which is the smallest version of the, of the line six pod.

60
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:41,200
Uh-huh.

61
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,200
So it fits in my gig back, so.

62
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,200
Cool.

63
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,200
So when you perform, what do you do?

64
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,200
Your own stuff?

65
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,200
Do you do covers?

66
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,200
Uh, basically I pay what people want and I smile when they pay me.

67
00:02:52,200 --> 00:03:00,200
It's a real treat to have you here, because I think you're a phenomenal musician.

68
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:01,200
Thank you.

69
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,200
And, uh, you know, I've been trying over the, you know, past day trying to, like, kind

70
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,200
of spury on that just, uh, give up the lowlands and come over here and, uh,

71
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,200
and give it a shot, man, because you, you got a lot of talent, and I think, uh,

72
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,200
when people hear this, they'll really, really enjoy what you're doing.

73
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,200
Thank you.

74
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:16,200
And, uh, so what are you going to do?

75
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,200
Yeah, I'd love you just to play as much as you feel like playing, because this is, uh,

76
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,200
you know, we don't have to, like, hit the network news or anything on the show.

77
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,200
Yeah.

78
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:24,200
So, uh, what would you like to do?

79
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,200
I was thinking of, uh, mixing it up, playing a few covers, um, you know,

80
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,200
some well-known stuff, and maybe a few originals as well, just, uh, you know.

81
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:31,200
Okay.

82
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:32,200
Let me, yeah.

83
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,200
Just give me a little vocal here, so I can set your reverb back.

84
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:35,200
Okay.

85
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:36,200
Go ahead.

I want to make it here.

You could be like, what can we make it?

113
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:12,200
First of all, I was thinking of cutting off the Birkin and just going with Bosch because it's like a powerful like Bosch.

00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,200
But nothing, nothing serious.

178
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,200
So when you look at the music business today, I mean, what do you see the future?

179
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,200
What do you think you'll be doing and what, what approach you're taking?

180
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,200
Because I presume you want to do this, right?

181
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,200
This is what, this is your passion, right?

182
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,200
Oh, yeah.

183
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,200
Well, I've recently got an in touch with some people back home that are wanting to help

184
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,200
me out.

185
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:44,200
There's like a small group of independent people that are trying to conquer the world, as

186
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:45,200
we're all trying to.

187
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:46,200
Sure.

188
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:50,200
And what I really need right now is I still don't have a recording of my own

189
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,200
stuff that I'm, you know, fully happy with.

190
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,200
So that's the first thing I'm going to do when I go back home.

191
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,200
Let's be pretty easy to find people who can know.

192
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,200
I mean, these days with, you know, max and pro tools and everything that should be

193
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:01,200
reasonably easy.

194
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,200
I mean, this will, this will be something you can enjoy listening to.

195
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,200
I don't think it's exactly what you want from a demo.

196
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,200
Not quite what you want.

197
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:09,200
Well, with you on it, my hair.

198
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,200
Well, do whatever we can.

199
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:17,200
I'd love for you to do a song by request for me, because I heard you do this.

200
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,200
Actually, I talked about this on the show a couple of weeks ago.

201
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,200
I heard you do this at the, at the art expo.

202
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,200
And I was like, oh my god, the first of all, the fact that anyone,

203
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,200
under 40 knows this song.

204
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:29,200
Right.

205
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,200
Second of all, would play it.

206
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:31,200
I was like, it just blew me away.

207
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:32,200
It's a real mother for you.

208
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,200
Johnny Guitar Watson was like, oh, yeah.

209
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:38,200
I mean, if you always had this in your repertoire, pretty much.

210
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,200
Johnny Guitar Watson is one of my favorite all-time artists.

211
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,200
What happened to him?

212
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:43,200
Is he still alive?

213
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,200
I think you had a heart attack in Japan on stage, actually.

214
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:46,200
Really?

215
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:47,200
And he passed away?

216
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:48,200
He died.

217
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:49,200
What a way to go.

218
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:50,200

219
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:51,200
Yeah.

220
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:52,200
But it had like sparks coming out of the guitar.

221
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:53,200
That would have been even better.

222
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,200

Yeah.

224
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,200
It's either on stage or in bed with a beautiful woman, right?

225
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,200
I mean, if you're going to get a heart attack, that's the way to go.

00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:00,200
Hear that, Mick?

227
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,200
Yeah.

228
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,200
So who are your heroes?

229
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,200
Is Johnny Guitar Watson one of them?

230
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:06,200
Uh, yes.

231
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:10,200
Well, basically, I break my, my musical background down into like three components.

232
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,200
Like, there's the stuff I grew up around because my parents had it,

233
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:14,200
owned it or listened to it.

234
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,200
Right.

235
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:16,200
Add the same, sure.

236
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:17,200
So that's what was that?

237
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,200
What kind of stuff was that?

238
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,200
Uh, that's like the late 60s, early 70s rock.

239
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:22,200
Okay.

240
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:23,200
Cool.

241
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:24,200
You see, I grew up with like peppermint twist and crap like that.

242
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,200
I know all the 50 songs.

243
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,200
No, no.

244
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,200
I was like, uh, yeah, I listened to Rolling Stones, Jimmy Hendrix.

245
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:31,200
All right.

246
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,200
That kind of stuff.

247
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:33,200
Right.

248
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,200
And then, uh, when I was a teenager, I was, I was a big fan of Red Hot Chili

249
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,200
Peppers, uh, stuff like that.

250
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,200
Funky, funky stuff.

251
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,200
And then through the funk I discovered, you know, jazz through players like Marcus

252
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,200
Marcus, Marcus, Marcus, Marcus.

253
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,200
Sure, sure.

254
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,200

00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:47,200
