This week’s guest is multi-genre guitarist, producer, and mixer, Louis Smith. Louis shares insights from his diverse musical journey, from mastering classical guitar to creating ambient soundscapes and playing in heavy and shoegaze bands. We discuss his academic work in integrating contemporary guitar styles into classical music, his experiences in bands Fuzz Meadows and Silurian, and his current projects, including GUSH, Resenter, and Lilivm.

We also explore Louis’s thoughts on identity, philosophy, art, and community, all framed by his personal perspectives and deep passion for music. The conversation kicks off with a chat about plugins (thanks to @officialjustinsheriff for free plugin recommendations) and flows into an engaging discussion about the many types of music Louis listens to, plays, and draws inspiration from.

Join us for a journey through Louis’s rich and varied musical world!
