Episode 49: Randy Ojeda

from The Distorted Dialogue Podcast · host Metal Institute of Thrashology

Several weeks ago, I was talking with a few different bands, when I noticed I really had no idea how many dynamics really involve the music scene, wether it's the manger's duties, the royalties, marketing and promotion, and a million more. I read about the issues that trouble bands, royalties, contracts, streaming, and I realized after talking to  @realrandyojeda  how little I really knew. I also didn't understand, as only a creator exactly all the different aspects and possibilities of what all goes into getting a band a steady and successful foundation to hopefully begin a long and successful careers. As someone who over analyzes everything, talking to Randy really helped begin my curiosities. I am not sponsored, paid, affiliated with Randy, other than talking to him here, as I generally am just curious about the industry. I would like to hang out with him at Disney or a show if I can ever get back to Florida where he is based out of. Thanks to  @CSquaredMm2  for setting this up!

Expect unfiltered, uncensored conversations, deep dives into underground music, and enough sarcasm and sonic blasphemy to earn us a few detention sessions in hell.Whether it is Thrash or Metalcore, Doom to Death and everything in between, if it’s heavy chances are you can find it here. Interviews with artists, tech’s, and other members of the music industry, nothing is off limits, and same goes for the chats! Rather than a boring rapid fire of the same old questions everyone asks, I’d rather have a cool conversation that feels more like a hangout, rather than a pretentious business meeting.
