<p>We’re wrapping up side A of Sam Weber’s Shape Confused Cowboy Be You with this episode on the song Used, or used001.art — we’ve got some special guests appearing on this one too. </p>

<p>In this episode, we’re talking about Bemoan, that’s short for the song’s true title: bemoan.me. Another nice piano intro on this one…something about these intros feel real classic and welcoming. We get into some good...

<p>In this episode, we’re keeping on the Shape Confused Cowboy Be You by Sam Weber path with a discussion of the tune “Back on the Ranch,” or it’s Christian name: back-on-the-ranch.com.</p>

<p>We’re out of the Deus Cowboy forest and back in the groove of episodic explorations of albums — and we’re starting here with a fav from the album, “Cowboy,” or if you’re a stickler for details, “cowboy-3.com.”</p>

<p>Welcome to part two of a discussion on Deus Cowboy just before the album’s release. We’re talking about technology in music, punk rock, and if this is Sam’s heavy metal album. Drop back in to Sam’s living room to...

<p>Sam Weber joins Big Secret Records for his sixth full length album, Deus Cowboy. We start the spelunking into the caves of wonder in this first episode of season 4. Keep your antennae up for part 2 soon….</p>

<p>Take a trip with us back to the heyday of pop music in the 1960s, but without all the racism! </p>

<p>Bob's second single! Lots of talk about it all captured here! Wow! We're talking the very traditional way this song came together, the merits of YouTube sample, and why Bob had to be convinced to put this one on the...

<p>Synth heads take note: in this episode you'll hear about when a lot of synthesizers become too many and the art of arrangement. Mangia! </p>
