On today’s episode, Rose, Terence, and Tony talk to Texas-born, genre-blending multi-instrumentalist Lucas/Heaven about public libraries, the cultural significance of DJ Screw and his screw tapes, and information theory as it relates to music. We got some good stories about the Houston music scene in the 2000s, and a 3 week psychedelic life journey that opened him up to writing.
