Episode 043 – “Producer Producer… IF I WAS YOUR PRODUCER”Welcome back to another episode of Why Make Music… with your favorite co-hosts ThinkTimm and DJ Warm Cookies (Willa May). This week marks a major milestone as we officially release Volume One of the new seven-part series: If I Was Your Producer. Ten tracks. All original. All written, produced, and arranged by WDMN MEDIA. This is the kickoff of something special, and we’re taking you behind the scenes.In this episode: ThinkTimm breaks down each track from Volume One—offering deep insights into the lyrics, themes, and production process of songs like “ABC Girl,” “Perplexion,” and “Yesterday.” DJ Warm Cookies discusses the role of AI in independent music production, drawing comparisons to Timbaland’s commercial AI artist project, and highlighting the true indie workflow at WDMN. We recap our recent family trip to Washington D.C., including museum visits to the Smithsonian’s Natural History, African American History, and American History museums—and reflect on musical exhibits like Grandmaster Flash’s turntables, J Dilla’s MPC, and Chuck Berry’s Cadillac. We dive into the summer blockbuster vibes—Jurassic World and Superman—with a nod to John Williams and how cinematic music shapes producers like ThinkTimm. We shine a spotlight on our Lower Level Collections: our family's personal archive of movie memorabilia, DC and dinosaur figures, 3D printed props, and collector fandoms that fuel our creativity.We also shout out indie artists Starcloak and Time Rival for their recent releases, and encourage every independent creative out there to keep creating, keep sharing, and build community.
