Making the Streaming System Work for You Creatively with Court Hoang

“Learning how to say your truth as yourself is really, really hard to do—especially at first.” 

In a world increasingly geared toward disposable art, how do we make something that matters? How can we stay true to our inner artist AND work with the algorithm? Is it even worth the compromise?

With the release of his four-part album, Triptychs, Court Hoang set out to answer these questions in a way that worked for him. In this episode, Emmeline and Court chat about how streaming has changed music, how creativity doesn't always work on a schedule optimized for consistent content generation, and how making something honest is always better than making something perfect.

Court also shares how songwriting can be the opportunity for the coveted life do-over. Stick around until the end to meet Emmeline's dogs!
