Pandora Podcasts are a "Must Listen" for Songwriters

In my last post, Pandora Rocks! , I introduced you to Pandora's personalized music service. Now, they have come up with a podcast series that is an absolute must for any serious songwriter. The podcasts are short (about 8 or 9 minutes apiece), but full of vital information on how to achieve the sound you're looking for:

We thought it might be interesting for folks to learn more about what goes into songwriting. These podcasts are our attempt to give you an inside look at the techniques musicians use to put their signature on the music they write and perform.

So far, there are six podcasts (listed latest to earliest):

• Drums and Drumming, Part II
• Elements of Salsa
• Recording Vocals
• Electric Guitar Effects
• Drums and Drumming, Part I
• The Basics of Vocal Harmony

Pandora plans to continue this series delving deeper and deeper into what makes music tick. I guarantee you'll learn something with every one of them. I did. And I've been at this music stuff for more than 40 years.
