About this Interview:

I met Chris through an online “Mastermind” Friday morning video call I do weekly. I was able to hang out with Chris in person in Nashville and it’s there I realized he would be a great candidate for WCA. Chris joins me for a chat about diet, money, his involvement in the French Canadian Christian music scene, and his home studio build. -Matt

Chris Selim’s Bullet Proof Coffee : Try at your own risk 😉

The regular recipe is One big cup of black coffee… 1 tbsp of grass fed unsalted butter… 1tbsp coconut oil… A bit of natural vanilla extract… A bit of cinnamon powder…
But if this is your first time, cut the butter and coconut oil quantity in half. – Chris

One of the best music biz related shows outthere

Yes we all know the Uber Mixers and Producers. The ones plugins are named after. When Matt interviews them it is mostly about their long and sometimes strenuous journey to where they are today. The road many of us are on, yet haven’t travelled that far. The show deals with a lot of everyday struggles to survive in this rotten business. There .... I called it by its name. And thank god less about the latest tech craze. Good Job Matt! Kudos from Yurp Georges

This is a really well done podcast. Interesting guests and a well-informed host. I like that the focus is on big picture things rather than gear.
I love
