Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, everybody, Welcome to the Music Podcast by me I Sabler.
So I'm going to be spending the next year. I'm
thinking ahead, really wanted to do something exciting for winter,
and thought, you know, what can we do the Suzuki
books one in strings and piano. I think, you know,
let's let's do those. But we'll do them on the
(00:23):
podcast rather than a membership site where you know, it's
a lot more work because we're working with video. Working
with audio is actually quite quite good idea, I think,
for you know what I've got in mind. So I'm
just here to tell you that we can start tomorrow
or maybe later today. I might start later today. Now
(00:43):
I'm not allowed to record music on these podcasts. Sadly
it's a bit unfortunate being a music teacher. But we can,
you know, lay lots of foundations and I'm pretty sure
I can play single notes, so we'll be doing lots
of that, and I'll be doing some pizza carta and
lots of pizza because I don't think the AI can
(01:04):
recognize pizzakato so much as a piece of music as
long as I play very very short snippets. So when
I'm teaching you know, we can go bar bye bar,
play a few notes and talk about it, and I
think it's a really good way to listen and learn.
Actually as well, you can access all of the suzuki
material that I've done previously. There a good few hundred
(01:27):
videos and supplementary material. There's a section at Tailteller Kids
on our new membership site. You can access all of
that there. So, although I'm not doing a specific music site,
if you like, all of the suzuki lessons will be
on the other membership which is tail Teller Kids. Okay,
(01:49):
if you go to tailtelor kids dot blogspot dot com,
you'll be able to find the membership button. It's only
two pounds a month, which is just so good, isn't it.
That's so cool two pounds a month? Wooh, And that
there's an awful lot of material there, So you know,
I do realize that sometimes adults want to learn suzuki,
(02:10):
and if that's the case and I get enough sort
of inquiries about doing that, then maybe after Christmas I'll
set up an adult music teaching school. But it's not
really something I'm necessarily thinking too much about. I don't
I'm not too keen to do that. At the moment
because I got lots of other things going on. So
the Kids membership gives you absolutely massies. It gives you,
(02:35):
if you're a teacher, loads of teacher tools, class structure, PDFs,
all this sort of thing. It gives you games for kids.
If you're a family, a parent, or a career caregiver,
or you know, you have perhaps your grandma or something
like that, It's got loads and loads of things that
you can read. There are loads of podcasts, of books,
(02:59):
absolutely hunt thousands of them, loads of videos. I've been
making these really cool shorts about bugs eye view. You
know what you can see if you're a bug. It's
really exciting. So so all loads of stuff like that.
That's on the kids one. On the adult book one,
which is Book of Immersion, that's all that's just sci fi. Okay, So,
(03:23):
but there's no music on there. I haven't put music
on there. I mean, I suppose I wouldn't put suzuki
music on there, would I That would be daft. But
I might. I might actually put some of the music
compositions that I've done as I servelant for the Book
of Immersion. Because all the music, most of the music
I've done in the last two three years has been
(03:43):
for the Book of Immersion. But I've got a band
camp now and I'm going to be transferring all of
my music onto my band camp so you can buy
the singles and I think, like, you know, more at
a more reasonable price, and we get when our music
is streamed because we've been getting All musicians are saying
(04:05):
this now. It's so depressing that we're getting so little
revenue for so much hard work. And my revenue is
actually going down the more music I produced, and not up.
And I would suggest that that's because the market is
completely saturated now, you know, because people are using AI
to make music, so it's utterly, utterly saturated. And I've
(04:29):
been using AI to do our kids tracks. But it's
very good at kids tracks. I'm very happy with it,
but it's I would never in a millionaires use it
to do a you know, a track under my own
sort of name that wasn't good for children. I just
wouldn't do that because rubbish guys, rubbish children like simplicity,
(04:52):
and AI also likes simplicity. It produces simplicity. It takes
everything down to a formula, because that's the only way
it can read creativity and it's not a very it's
not we know that that has no humanity in it whatsoever.
Nothing human about a robot. And they can't pretend. They
(05:14):
need to stop trying to pretend. They need to know
that they're different. They're similar, but different, like completely different.
That's my reckoning. So yeah, if you're into sci fi,
and the Book of Immertian Volume one was already published
about a month ago. I'm going to be doing book two.
(05:36):
I'm three chapters in, I think, so you do get
first DIBs on the chapters as I write them, so
you can have you can collate a whole book actually,
and you can you can if you're a member. It's
three pounds a month. I think you can download all
the artworks to print them off for home use, which
I just think is such a lovely way of you know,
(05:57):
sharing the wonderful the vision of it all, you know,
the visuals, and there'll be loads of other stuff as
well in support of the world to immerse yourself in.
So yeah, so there we go. That's just a heads
up of what's been going on, and it's it's taken
me about six weeks to get this organized and there's
(06:19):
been a few highs and a few loads. Actually, trying
to you know, trying to make a person like me
organized is pretty hard, I would say. And I think
a lot of us musicians are like that, A bit chaotic,
aren't we. Well, you know, my mum always says, well,
she sees me more as an artist than a musician,
(06:40):
I think. But she always says, oh, you're just an artist.
You can't expect you to be tidy. And then she
goes she reminisces about the moldy coffee mugs hidden under
my bed, and I think, oh god, have I got
to hear this again? I'm sixty two. I've got to
hear this. Have I got too? Am I sixty two
(07:00):
or I sixty three? I've completely and utterly forgotten how
old I am. Oh my god, that's so weird. I
think I'm maybe sixty three. Now. Wow, you honestly, you
stop counting, You do you stop counting? Especially when life's
exciting and vibrant and filled with wonderful newness, they become
(07:22):
completely irreverent. Actually, my mum bought me a beautiful hanging
chair and I got it on temu. Guys, it's a
dream now, I looked at the reviews and the people
were saying that that how incredible they were. It's one
hundred quid and it arrived. And the way they do it,
(07:43):
the egg shape kind of folds up because it's made
of strips and weave, so it is able to fold
up like concertina. It's amazing and that's how they get
it in the box. And then all the metal so heavy, rigid,
apologies for that rigid, strong metal, all slotted together. It
(08:06):
was that absolute pleasure and I swinging it when I'm
contemplating it's very nice. Well, I better go because somebody
wants me so yeah. Tawtae Club dot com. I serve
a land dot com. Same old, same old, but new
fangled sites. They look really nice and they've got buttons
across the top which you'll be able to access my
new YouTube channels. They're all sparkling and shiny new and
(08:30):
although I don't I'm not going to upload very much.
It's just passive income I want from these places. Well, no,
not passive income even I just want I want people
to find them and sort of stay in the loop
and know that when I've put up a new chapter
or know when you know when I've released a new track, don't.
I don't. I'm not going to upload like five times
a day. I'm not working for this machine. It's a
(08:53):
horrible job. I pity everybody who's caught up in it
because it's absolutely ghastly. And there's a whole generation of
children who who you know, they're not playing musical instruments,
and do you know how good they are for mental health?
I mean, it's basically a cure for mental health issues.
(09:16):
Playing music also keeps dementia at the at Bay. By
the way, anyway, I'm off ski so www dot Taeltaler
club dot com, Oricervlan dot com and I'm also on
gum Road, so you can go and become a member
for two or three pounds a month. It's very exciting.
