The History of Vagrant Records

The Washed Up Emo Podcast published a great 2 part interview with the co-founder of Vagrant Records. If you were ever in to the first batch of Vagrant bands, I’d highly recommend listening to these to episodes.

#70 – Part 1 of 2 – The History of Vagrant Records with co-founder Rich Egan

#71 – Part 2 of 2 – The History of Vagrant Records with co-founder Rich Egan

I just discovered the podcast and these episodes are a few years old at this point, still well worth the listen.

On Audio Blog Posts

Every once in a while, I’ll come across a blog where they author records themselves reading their post. I don’t see it often, I don’t think it’s a trend that’s ever really caught on and off the top of my head I can only think of one blogger (Jermey Keith) who regularly posts audio dictation.

I don’t have a proper microphone and I don’t have an audio engineering background. However, I did produce a reasonably successful Canadian tech news podcast for a while and I miss it.

In any case, it seems like a fun experiment. So for at least my next few posts, I am going to give it a shot.
