"The intention of the project is to move people physically and emotionally" S2 EP07 with Ryan Ferris

In this episode of Can’t Find My Way Home I was joined by Ryan Ferris. Calling from his current base in New Zealand, we talk about his journey so far - both musically and geographically. Ryan tells us about his adventures busking in Berlin, and trying to make a living from that, as well as busking his way through 20 countries to date.. We talk musical influencesl influences and transitioning from the folk singer-songwriter scene into Berlin’s renowned electronic music scene and how this change led him to start his own new project - Beacon Bloom. Ryan describes the project as fitting broadly into the genres of electronica and melodic house music, and  there’s a multitude of elements and influences that can be heard in the band’s sound. We also touch on Intentional Events in Christchurch and what other collaboartive events are happening in the local arts scene. Ryan’s also a podcaster and The Good Timeline is where he attempts to examine Transhumanism through every possible lens. He’s spoken to Harvard professors, scientists, musicians and artists about their respective fields, life, and humanity. We discuss ‘the meme space’, as well as some of the guests and subjects that’ll be in forthcoming episodes. Highly recommended listening! Our Top 5 features Robbie Williams, Noah Gundersen, The Staves, John Farnham, the Funkhaus in Berlin, and not getting Kanye or Beck… All this and sneaking into abandoned reservoirs in the name of rock’n’roll… Let’s get right to it...Ryan Ferris https://ryanferrismusic.com/ https://www.beaconbloom.com/ https://thegoodtimeline.com/podcast Beacon Bloom - Rocket Part II (Live at the Mycelium Network) https://youtu.be/XG4c_Yi4veA
