186 – Catching Up with Dave Chick Part 1

It’s a little-known fact that I used to be a co-host of Inside Home Recording towards the end of its lifespan. But I do remember that experience fondly. In this episode, I catch up with long-time host of IHR Dave Chick (of Hatched Productions), who has been working as a composer and sound designer for the last 12 years. Our conversation jumps around from taking a circuitous route in life and podcasting to our tastes in music, building business connections and more. This is part one in a two-part series. Of course, for the budding composer, we get into that side of things too!
