In this week’s episode of The Apollo Audio Podcast, Martin and Billy talk about the realities of running and sustaining creative spaces, why recording studios matter to local music communities, and how pressures like rising costs and business rates affect the wider music ecosystem.
They also chat through recent industry news, including the Grammys and the Brit Awards, what gets recognised on big stages, and why some genres and artists still struggle for meaningful representation.
In the recommended listening section, Martin and Billy dive into Audioslave’s self-titled debut album, unpacking the riffs, performances, production, and dynamics that make it hold up more than 20 years on — and asking the important question: does it vinyl, or is this a CD-era classic?
Recorded at Apollo Audio Hertford.
Topics include: Audioslave debut album, Chris Cornell, Tom Morello, studio economics, music industry pressure, Grammys, Brit Awards, album discussion.
