Ep34 Ben Makinen

"Learn to become your own greatest teacher and your own greatest fan." - Ben Makinen Ben Makinen is a recording artist, composer (BMI), producer and filmmaker. In 2002 he founded the record label Bmakin Music. Born in Maine, Ben grew up in California, Washington and Oklahoma before graduating high school in Colorado. Seeing Miles Davis perform live three times and then meeting the Dalai Lama in person forever changed the way Ben would approach the art of music. As a drummer and percussionist, he has been touring the world as a sideman since 1985 with r&b, funk and rock bands, jazz trios and big bands, avant-garde electronica ensembles, in Broadway shows, on international cruise ships, and with opera troupes and symphonic orchestras. (From Ben Makinen website bio.) Ben has also expanded his artistry into photography and video. He creates and shares stories from the depths of his own mind as well as collaborating with other artists to share their stories with the world. In developing an ever expanding repertoire of music and video Ben Makinen is a true artist in every sense. images © Ben Makinen - used by permission ben makinen website ben makinen youtube Subscribe: iTunes | Android | Spotify | Email | RSS   MORE ART UNKNOWN PODCASTS.fusion-portfolio-wrapper#fusion-portfolio-106 .fusion-portfolio-content{ padding: 25px 25px 25px 25px; text-align: center; }.fusion-portfolio-106 .fusion-portfolio-wrapper .fusion-col-spacing{padding:20px;}Crave Magazine2026-04-20T09:03:52-06:00 Ep93 Cliff Beach Ep93 Cliff BeachJim Wills2026-04-12T04:19:08-06:00 Ep92 Kneet Ep92 KneetCrave Magazine2026-03-25T11:28:26-06:00 Ep91 Lora Arbrador Ep91 Lora ArbradorCrave Magazine2026-03-18T07:15:26-06:00 Ep90 Rupali Kumbhani Ep90 Rupali KumbhaniCrave Magazine2026-03-18T07:04:33-06:00 Ep89 Regina Linke Ep89 Regina LinkeCrave Magazine2026-03-09T10:02:35-06:00 Ep88 Alec Harrison Ep88 Alec HarrisonCrave Magazine2026-03-09T09:58:09-06:00 Ep87 Lee Isaacs Ep87 Lee IsaacsCrave Magazine2026-02-05T22:26:18-07:00 Ep86 Evgenia Selina & Ilya Lapich Ep86 Evgenia Selina & Ilya LapichCrave Magazine2026-01-27T03:25:43-07:00 Ep85 Chris Orcutt Ep85 Chris OrcuttCrave Magazine2026-01-05T03:43:42-07:00 Ep84 Don Rodriguez Ep84 Don RodriguezCrave Magazine2026-01-02T07:47:38-07:00 Ep83 Franky Corcoran Ep83 Franky CorcoranCrave Magazine2025-12-18T08:47:06-07:00 Ep82 Maba Ba Ep82 Maba BaCrave Magazine2025-12-11T21:55:21-07:00 Ep81 Wednesdae Reim Ifrach Ep81 Wednesdae Reim IfrachCrave Magazine2025-12-12T04:30:18-07:00 Ep80 Dawn Farrow Ep80 Dawn FarrowCrave Magazine2025-12-12T05:39:48-07:00 Ep79 Richard Moon Ep79 Richard MoonCrave Magazine2025-12-12T05:47:26-07:00 Ep78 Kirk Voclain Ep78 Kirk VoclainCrave Magazine2025-12-15T04:17:17-07:00 Ep77 Stan Lai Ep77 Stan LaiCrave Magazine2025-12-15T04:19:24-07:00 Ep76 Dennis Welch Ep76 Dennis WelchCrave Magazine2025-12-15T07:25:35-07:00 Ep75 Jim Wills – part 3 Ep75 Jim Wills – part 3Crave Magazine2025-12-15T07:26:05-07:00 Ep74 Cameron Smith Ep74 Cameron SmithCrave Magazine2025-12-15T07:27:19-07:00 Ep73 Siquoyia Blue Ep73 Siquoyia BlueJim Wills2025-12-15T07:50:38-07:00 Ep72 Clementine Moss Ep72 Clementine MossJim Wills2025-12-15T07:51:34-07:00 Ep71 Rob Murat & Maya Elizabeth Ep71 Rob Murat & Maya ElizabethCrave Magazine2025-12-15T07:53:29-07:00 Ep70 Meg Raiano Ep70 Meg RaianoCrave Magazine2025-11-21T06:25:41-07:00 Ep69 Kat Sparks Ep69 Kat SparksCrave Magazine2025-11-21T06:28:00-07:00 Ep68 Christopher Quigley Ep68 Christopher QuigleyCrave Magazine2025-11-21T06:31:29-07:00 Ep67 Shanti Hershenson Ep67 Shanti HershensonCrave Magazine2025-11-21T07:53:07-07:00 Ep66 Alan Katz Part 2 Ep66 Alan Katz Part 2Crave Magazine2025-11-21T07:56:04-07:00 Ep65 Alan Katz Part 1 Ep65 Alan Katz Part 1Crave Magazine2025-11-21T08:00:58-07:00 Ep64 Hersh Gutwilik Ep64 Hersh GutwilikCrave Magazine2025-11-21T08:02:08-07:00 Ep63 Teri M Brown Ep63 Teri M BrownCrave Magazine2025-11-21T08:06:51-07:00 Ep62 DJ Windy M Ep62 DJ Windy MCrave Magazine2025-11-21T08:11:06-07:00 Ep61 Ant Boogie Ep61 Ant BoogieCrave Magazine2025-11-23T03:53:34-07:00 Ep60 Isabel Hülya Ergül Ep60 Isabel Hülya ErgülCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:00:15-06:00 Ep59 Afro Preachah Ep59 Afro PreachahCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:02:39-06:00 Ep58 Sofia Zolezzi Ep58 Sofia ZolezziCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:04:27-06:00 Ep57 Janet Dossigny Ep57 Janet DossignyCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:07:05-06:00 Ep56 Laura Viola Preciado Ep56 Laura Viola PreciadoCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:18:57-06:00 Ep55 Suzanne Frazier Ep55 Suzanne FrazierCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:20:21-06:00 Ep54 John Bacon Ep54 John BaconCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:23:04-06:00 Ep53 Heidi Luerra Ep53 Heidi LuerraCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:25:42-06:00 Ep52 Murat Germen Ep52 Murat GermenCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:35:44-06:00 Ep51 Monalicious Ep51 MonaliciousCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:37:09-06:00 Ep50 Jim Wills – part 2 Ep50 Jim Wills – part 2Crave Magazine2025-09-29T08:45:05-06:00 Ep49 Angel Espino Ep49 Angel EspinoCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:46:13-06:00 Ep48 Jesse Doyle Ep48 Jesse DoyleCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:49:03-06:00 Ep47 Mary Bue Ep47 Mary BueCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:49:31-06:00 Ep46 Kelly Marie | Messy Ever After Ep46 Kelly Marie | Messy Ever AfterCrave Magazine2025-09-29T08:49:54-06:00 Ep45 Steven Dossou Ep45 Steven DossouCrave Magazine2025-11-21T08:21:09-07:00 Ep44 Elizabeth Lo Ep44 Elizabeth LoCrave Magazine2025-09-29T09:01:18-06:00 Ep43 Anna Murphy Ep43 Anna MurphyCrave Magazine2025-09-29T09:10:59-06:00 Ep42 Zialand Ep42 ZialandCrave Magazine2025-09-29T09:05:17-06:00 Ep41 Cole Scheifele Ep41 Cole ScheifeleCrave Magazine2025-09-29T09:12:45-06:00 Ep40 Jensen Sutta-Part 2 Ep40 Jensen Sutta-Part 2Crave Magazine2025-09-29T09:13:16-06:00
