    A Conversation With Jack Forman of Recess Monkey

    Apr 26, 12 • In Dadnabbit, Featured, Interviews, Music

    Just like the seasons, every year seems to bring another release from Seattle’s Recess Monkey.  2012 is no different. June 19th will mark the release of the eighth studio album from the trio. In Tents finds the band exploring the world of the circus. In addition, the group brought in Dean Jones to help produce the record. I interrupted Monkey Jack Forman as he was editing the video for ‘Popcorn’ which can be found right here. He’s obviously quicker at editing videos than I am at transcribing interviews. My favorite quote from the interview? “Well kids don’t drink nearly enough beer.“ Will you ever take a break? In Tents is your eighth album in eight years. We’re so lucky that everything is line for us to keep us inspired. We keep wanting to do this

    The Pop Ups came out of left field in 2010 with the release of Outside Voices, a synth-pop debut album that raised the creative bar in the Kindie music scene. The release of Outside Voices also spawned a live puppet show called Pasta! that had successful runs in both New York and L.A. Jacob Stein, one half of The Pop Ups, took time and answer some of our questions about the new album Radio Jungle, the writing process and the Kindie music scene. How excited are you to have this project for ready for public consumption? It’s amazing. For this record we finished it and then we went through more post production. We had it mixed at Roll Poll studio by Andy Baldwin who recently worked on the new Bjork record. We had it mastered

    Interview: Farmer Jason

    Jan 30, 12 • In Dadnabbit, Dads Writing About Kindie Culture, Interviews, Music, Uncategorized

    Farmer Jason is set release his latest kids record, Nature Jams on February 7th. It will be the debut release for the brand new record label and entertainment channel, MyKaZooTV. Farmer Jason was kind enough to take time out of his busy schedule to chat with us about the new record and MyKaZooTV. Dadnabbit: Talk about the partnership with MyKaZooTV came to be and why it’s makes business sense for kids musicians: Farmer Jason: For starters the two guys running it, Rick Dobbis and Richard Ellis are really sharp, very experienced business men.  They’ve run major record companies. Right off the bat you have these guys who don’t have false assumptions about what they can and can’t do. They are very committed to bringing quality music to families. The family music industry needs a good
