so that we're not hearing one echo chamber that mainstream media is constantly spewing. we're not beholden to any corporate sponsor no one tells us what to cover how long the coverage or how to say it that's the beauty of our t.v. america. we give both sides we hear from both sides and we question more that. not letting anything get in your way to bring it home to the american people .

readings in salutation los angeles city of dreams what once started as sleepy orange groves as far as the eye could see is now the sprawling concrete and palm tree jungle where hopes and dreams come to get made or to be broken. along the town of movie stars and screenplays los angeles has also posted an impressive a reg of musical artistry in genius that captures the very heart of the city of angels from the doors in the whiskey a go go to n.w.a. in compton to the byrds the carpenters the beach boys the eagles guns n roses are

red hot chili peppers rage against the machine the descendents snoop kendrick the list could go on and on and on too many to count. like plastic surgery in beverly hills and hipsters in silverlake a los angeles music scene is going nowhere my friends which is why today we celebrate l.a. music as watching the hawks strikes a chord if you want to know but still would know that you see the series at the bank i rail that you dislike to analyze it to gauge the plot of the city you speak of my left shoulder for the day like it or not i got to have a visit with the police and the outrage of it and it is still going on did this world cope with it and opened up new details we opened up to start to question.

i'm alex. and play bass and guitar and i play guitar i'm evelyn and i play the drums she told me how did how did everyone come together how did out of power still felt find its way all the knowledge goes old story about. alex we had actually never met but we knew of each other and i like a mutual friend of ours was like ok out is moving to l.a. and i was like perfect awesome this girl i know of her i knew she was a musician. in colorado and was like in bands and i just like knew of her because i knew her ex-boyfriend and so. i was like when she comes l.a. we're going to like be friends and we just started playing together yeah we just started jamming at that like the first couple times that. we ever like put songs together it was just like her on drums and me playing guitar and i still have these like demos of us just like kind of like. yeah going over these

songs and your music has this very real quality it's be cheap but it it's classical it's sort of ambient all of these things did you try to create that someone l.a. sound or did it just kind of happen way. i think i was wanted like. i'm trying to think specifically like. i think i had like a sound in mind it actually used to be a lot more like fuzzed out in reverb and like when i would play live. initially it was just like even more just kind of like indian sounding and i really do love music like that i think as i played more and got more confident it was like turning the reverb down and so you could hear my voice more and like so you can hear the songs and like the the lyrics more hopefully. so i really like this really.

it's a music but like. definitely like a yeah yes a sound in mine and yes the beachy kind of surf definitely that was an influence to for sure how much how much does the feeling of los angeles and. find its way into your music and you know is that hard because you're also one of us and you're trying to do. i mean i think it became more obvious when we went on tour we went to like the northern california and like a lot of the ones that we played with are like kind of like more focus like just as we like would visit different regions like the music woodbury kind of a little bit more and so like coming back to l.a. it's like oh yeah up our friends kind of play sim somewhat similar styles of music with other thing other influences but i think that's when i kind of like notice that it was more of a regional kind of like vibe yeah i guess i think there's like a a weird standard that might be here that makes it maybe

a little more like clean early hall list in a way that i don't know what do you think philly people hold themselves to a different standard here and things come out of the gate pretty tight and polished which is something i'm not used to actually. do you think it ups the ante for everybody for the trickle down effect so yeah like fully formed in. l.a. it seems they don't really have much of a gestational rough around the edges period it seems like they just come out like guns a blazing because they're taking it pretty seriously so what is the sound of los angeles you know what is l.a. music well it's funny that you said that because when i think of like one of the biggest like ellie. burger but that's like to me so like that's orange county and that's the beach and like i was going to silence it it's not but i'm like i'm from i'm from l.a.

i'm not from orange. it makes me only because not every but it's true you know i feel like i was east and i like never at the beach and i never was a part of that kind of like. but when i think of l.a. and i think of l.a. music and was like really like. known around the world it's probably that which is it's awesome though it's like really cool it's like a really great like like sound that i think is like full of like this california fantasy you know you know l.a. is like a classic you know film town and you know everyone's an actor or director writer or whatever. so you know a lot of times that gets presence over the music do you feel a clash of cultures there or do you feel about like you know film versus music as musicians working in los angeles. or i'm an alien i mean like i'm not from los angeles but when i moved here i remember remarking that i wasn't cross pollinating

as much as i used to when other places i lived like i pretty much only hang out musicians right now and that's not necessarily by choice is a great but i mean i know film people but like they do seem kind of like other far away. it's and yet it's amusing you see that so we met at because i was working at this theater and you both essentially work there really at this theater called in a family and that's a really cool all some kind of like alternative place that just kind of attracts like kind of like this weird group and i'd say like if you're you have like. you kind of coming to l.a. and you're kind of looking for like where to meet like minded people that are kind of into weird. stuff like i would go there and so we met there and. she she paints and she was she would do these like incredible like paintings for the events that we've had there some of your visual artists your comic books

painting all of that is does a visual art how does being a visual artist. factor or inspired or music because it's almost as if i feel it with visual artists are musicians it's it's almost as if they can see in you say do you ever feel that way you should answer composition i mean i think if you're learning how to make art that's like one of the first things that helps you sort of stay on course is figuring out how to compose things properly and i think once you're used to doing it that way it would be easy to do it this way just seems like they're so yeah it's relationship. well i've been drawing and painting like my whole life since i was a small child and actually begged my dad for a drum so i thought it was really cool when i was like twelve and i had

a drum set for like a month and i played it for like a month and during that lessons i totally lost interest and i picked it back up again when i was like nineteen like playing like my musician friends and the way that i went about it was kind of the way that i approached drawing the way that i do approach trying is like really sketchily you know really like and like removing the unnecessary things so i kind of started out just like jamming just like you know feeling things out and i think that's kind of just how i approach music too it's just you know kind of like sketching out something and then refining it you know choosing what goes where and it's kind of a cool. it's kind of interesting to see that where those two different forms of art like translate and how you can apply what you learn from one thing to the next. yeah in a lot of different ways so tell me where do you where do you find the inspirations for your songs do you do all collaborate together or is it individual you know someone comes up with an idea in the novel and works on

a way how does the inspiration come. to a lot of literary influences over the yeah yeah one song. we have called we're surrounded and. it's it's based on a chapter kurt vonnegut novel called the other night as we go to break off watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered and if you would like to learn more about today's speech or artist check us out on facebook twitter and you tube and be sure to check out our poll shows of our t.v. dot com coming up the sweet wild sounds of pastel felt continues as watching the hawks strikes a chord. called the feeling of. every the world should experience.

and you'll get it on the old the old. the old according to jess. that. coming from the raw. data. rejected tonight is a comment to soledad not the fangs by the corporate media. would you go after the corporations that just more your lives profit over people at every turn. the data tonight for me is like medicine it's like a cancer joke from all the stress that the news puts you under redacted tonight is a show where you can go to cry from laughing about the stuff that's going on in the world as opposed to just regular crying we're going to find out what the corporate

mainstream media is not telling you about how we're going to filter it through some satirical comedic lenses to make it more digestible that's what we do every week hard hitting radical comedy news like redacted tonight is where it's at. in case you're new to the game this is how it works now the economy is built around currency corporations from washington washington control the media the media. and voters elected the businessman to run this country business equals power who must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. it's a subliminal. the bold. welcome

i guess a lot of my. songs and nationally were about not feeling like not fitting in style and feeling weird and other and feeling kind of like an outsider still and . you know digging through those those sort of like. undefined feelings and yeah there's an imposter syndrome sure i hear that a lot imposter syndrome i feel i have it i'm always saying that one day they're going to figure out that i don't belong here you don't have that my whole life and i feel like a lot of us are in our generation are dealing with it and feeling like we are we need more weirdos the leaders need to get together more. well it's funny that you talk about like l.a. i've i often feel like i go you know i feel like all of us are very active and like

we go to shows a lot all lots lots of our friends are in bands and we're constantly you know. seeing and like i feel like everyone is feeling that way like everyone was kind of that weird person in high school and still like now still being like ok you know it was a little still there but you know like baking really cool stuff and doing good things so. it. feels like you know it's high school with morning basically you. go to the couch so that to me is los angeles no the yurt all female do you feel pushback because about is there kind of a bottle of the sexes in the music industry do you do you feel like you do feel that the patriarchy versus the matriarchy. in the music industry. no i

think if anything i feel more encouraged like i think people are actually even more like. oh wow and i'm not sure if that's just for like. i don't know maybe i took it for granted that i know a lot of female musicians like we. i think i think i notice that on toward to like we we know a lot of really awesome girls that are in awesome bands and i think we're on we were on tour and noticed like we played with lots of like bands and i was like oh yeah i feel like we know a lot of like really cool and i just i don't think about it anymore because it's just. what i'm used to you know yeah i think i feel like now it feels weird if i just see a show that's mostly dude. i'm like you don't have a girl you can just throw in there like just put her in there i don't know it's yeah it feels like that's the strange thing now. but i feel the same way that we were just lucky. maybe cultures like cresting in

a way that the culmination of our efforts i don't know it's been good sometimes i feel like there was one time when i was in the practice space there used to have and i was like hauling my little cart of drums through the maze of. like passageways to get to my room and some guy was just like hey are you lost like i'm like why would you have asked me that if i was just a guy with holding my things probably you know so i think it's still present but it's moving in the right direction and yet there's something like a boys' club like i'm not i don't i can't. and i think everyone knows it now so it's just you know we'll see how long they can hang on. ily

thorough. all right we are being lied to about syria we are being lied to by the president we are being lied to by the mainstream media this is my surprised face. last week famed people were surprised winning journalist seymour hersh revealed the motivations and facts given by trump for bombing syria were about as truthful as a bill cosby testimony. there was that testimony for joel putting which i still believe he legitimately.
