  • Channel — Inside Chicago’s Most Artist-Friendly Studio (w/ Zino B & Jimmy Bonks)
    Sep 25 2025
    In this episode of Poducer, we sit down with Vincenzo Zino B and Jimmy Box — producers, engineers, and co-founders of Channel Recording Company, a brand-new Chicago studio designed to feel like a living room while sounding world-class. They share the story of transforming a raw warehouse into a fully treated space in Fort Knox Studios, complete with cedar diffusion walls, a 25×25 ft live room, and a glass-walled ISO booth big enough for a grand piano. We dive into their philosophy of hospitality-driven engineering, why “good sound should be the default,” and how creating a comfortable environment frees artists to focus on making their best music. Beyond the technical build, Zino B and Jimmy reflect on their paths through the Chicago scene — from Joyride sessions with legends like Buddy Guy to Grammy-nominated projects, to building a community hub where artistry, collaboration, and care come first. They also tackle big topics like AI in music, the importance of “first listeners” in mastering, and how true fans sustain independent art. 📲 Follow Channel Recording Company: https://www.instagram.com/channelingcompany/ 🎚️ Learn more & book sessions: https://channelrecordingcompany.com/ 🎙️ Follow Poducer: https://linktr.ee/poducerpodcast 00:00 Intro — Channel opens to the public 03:15 From Joyride to Channel: credits, craft, and workflow 05:45 Designing for comfort: glass wall, open doors, quiet rooms 14:35 Building a studio (cedar, diffusion, floors) 23:50 What makes Channel different (hospitality + musicianship) 33:05 Chicago scene: world/jazz, Americana, blues lineage 45:20 AI & the “first listener” argument for human mastering 52:30 True fans, community, and sustainable careers 57:40 What’s next: projects, outreach, and how to book

  • Summer's End Smokeout 2025: Porch
    Sep 19 2025
    In this episode of Poducer, recorded live at Summer’s End Smokeout in Republic, Michigan, we sit down with Porch (Nick Loporchio) — a multi-instrumentalist and producer whose journey bridges music, science, and spirit. From his first spark of inspiration through Weird Al parodies to years of playing guitar, handbells, and powerlifting, Porch opens up about the pivotal injury that led him toward reggae, bass, and ultimately the Porch project. He shares stories from touring with his band Iya Terra (200+ shows a year across the U.S. and abroad) and how his sound evolved into a fusion of roots, funk, hip-hop, and heavy dub. We dive into his scientific background in molecular biology, exploring how concepts like epigenetics and energy transfer connect to sound, and why he sees music as a kind of “potion.” Porch also reflects on the spiritual side of creation, from the unique frequencies of Joshua Tree to the vibrations we carry in everyday life. 📲 Follow Porch: https://www.instagram.com/porch.bass/ 🎙️ Follow Poducer: https://linktr.ee/poducerpodcast Chapters: 00:00 – First Concert & Weird Al Inspiration 01:20 – Musical Upbringing & Handbells 03:40 – Guitar, Bands & Powerlifting Years 07:00 – Injury, Recovery & Path Toward Production 10:20 – Discovering Reggae & Bass Culture 12:40 – Iya Terra, Touring & Live Shows 15:00 – Scientific Background & Epigenetics 18:20 – Music as Potion: Vibration & Healing 21:30 – Spiritual Insights from Joshua Tree 23:30 – Festivals, Cali Roots & Career Defining Moments

  • NSW x Poducer Ep 7 HIJINX — From Mr. K to Mischief, Evolution & Originality in 140
    Sep 10 2025
    In this collaboration episode of Poducer with NSW, we sit down with UK producer HIJINX (formerly known as Mr. K) — an artist who’s evolved from heavyweight dubstep roots into a boundary-pushing sound that blends groove, texture, and raw energy. From his beginnings in Essex and early raves at Brixton Academy to releasing on respected labels like 1985 Music, White Peach, and his own imprint Fortune, HIJINX opens up about the creative reinvention that’s carried him through two distinct eras of his career. We dive into his transition from Mr. K to HIJINX, his shifting production style, and why he’s more interested in originality and groove than chasing trends. Along the way, he reflects on collaboration, the challenges of staying inspired in dubstep, and the crossover influences of metal, skate culture, and techno in his music. HIJINX also shares candid thoughts on the music industry — from the realities of releasing on major labels to the freedom of running his own platform, and what true success looks like outside of metrics. 📲 Follow HIJINX: https://www.instagram.com/morehijinx/ 🎙️ Follow Poducer: https://linktr.ee/poducerpodcast
