    The Backline Podcast - EP. 24: The Mastermind Behind the D.I.Y. of Mile 134

    Any band or musician looking to go the “D.I.Y.” route - LISTEN UP! (Or if you simply want to learn about how we’ve developed & adapted on our journey throughout the years, tune in!) Read on below, & tune in to get '“in the weeds” with Tristan! We’ve got the man with the plan talking about how we’ve adapted to the “Do-It-Yourself” route with the process of recording, mixing, & mastering your own music. Real world knowledge, learned from experimenting & taking action. No musical background, just a drive to understand & willingness to learn. In this rare episode, Tristan takes the mic all his own & talks about the skills & knowledge he’s developed - & still developing - through trial & error, countless hours working with software, & more! Tristan takes you through, ALMOST step by step, our entire recording process. From the scratch tracks to the final product. Tristan will be the first to tell you - he’s no expert. HOWEVER, this is why we created our Substack - to share our knowledge & experiences! Really hope you enjoy this great episode! Be sure to tune in to our Twitch Stream THIS SUNDAY to get an in depth look, a one-on-one session, as the Mastermind walks you through one of our singles from 2025! Keep your ears & eyes open on 10/31… *Hint* You will be getting ANOTHER Substack writing this month Mile 134 Official is a reader-supported publication.

    The Backline Podcast - EP. 23: Digital

    All 3 of the songs we’ve released this Summer were demoed on digital gear. However, the final product that you hear was on our usual, physical, analog equipment. We’ve done a lot of work on our digital setup. Does it make the cut to be on a final recording, or possibly make it on stage with us? Tune in to Episode 23 to find out AND/OR… Watch our live stream later today, August 16th, kicking off at 2 PM! We will be showcasing our “new” FULLY DIGITAL setup, as well as playing our new singles “live” for the first time! Mile 134 Official is a reader-supported publication.

    The Backline Podcast - EP. 22: "No More"

    “No More is about my love/hate relationship with music.” A song for entrepreneurs, artists, creators, small business owners, etc. - anyone who is trying to make a positive mark on the world pursuing their purpose - and going through the ups and downs in pursuit of "success." With blunt, straight-to-the point lyrics, it’s easy for some lines in the song to be misinterpreted. However, the meaning of the song is whatever the listener makes it and how they connect with it. Tune in to hear what “No More” was inspired by and written about. TWITCH STREAM BUTTON - WATCH NOW - LEAVING SOON June was a BUSY month for Mile 134 as well! Be sure to checkout one of our new fan favorites, “Narcissist” - released 06/20! (Our Facebook & Instagram polls determined that “Narc” was more favored than “MUD.”) Mile 134 Official is a reader-supported publication.

    The Backline Podcast - EP. 21: AI

    AI is everywhere, including in music. A quick episode for you this month but a fun one! With the continued rise of AI, this may not be our last episode on this topic. Tune in as we listen and react to a song written by AI! *We do not own the rights to the song - AI does.* On another note, we are going to interrupt your once-a-month email with our release of “Narcissist” on 06/20! You will receive a write up of the song meaning, how it came to be, recording process, and more the morning of the drop! PAID SUBS - We also asked AI to roast us, and it was HILARIOUS! Be on the lookout for that email later this morning. Also included in that email is our pre-release package for our song dropping 06/20, “Narcissist.” YOU don’t have to wait another week - you get everything “NARC” NOW!! This is a public episode.

    The Backline Podcast - EP. 20: Milestone Episode

    Did you know that 90% of podcasts don't get past episode 3? Of the remaining 10%, 90% don't make it to episode 20. Well guess what, we made it and we have YOU all to thank! More data we found interesting was that to be in the top 1%, we only need to make it to episode 21. So that’s our next goal - taking it episode by episode, and continuing to produce content! Tune in as we discuss and reflect on why we started this podcast, what we have learned, what we hoped you have learned by listening, what’s ahead for everything Mile 134, and more. Please note: We will be interrupting your monthly episode/Substack writing with ANOTHER special release coming at you on the morning of 05/20. We will be sending ALL SUBSCRIBERS a special write up on “MUD,” our song dropping 05/20 at midnight!

    The Backline Podcast - EP. 19: "Dead to You"

    “Dead to You” is the debut single from Trey’s solo project. The song dropped at midnight on March 30th of this year. The song is very different from anything Mile 134 related. Tune in for a special Q & A as we discuss the meaning behind the song, how it was written, the entire “Do-It-Yourself” recording (mixing/mastering/artwork/promo/etc.) process, how it ALMOST was never released, creating reels for views, and more. (Skip ahead a few minutes into the episode to avoid our talk about Kirkland carbonated water, Costco, & Kwik Trip versus Casey’s/aliens…) And don’t forget to listen to the song, & subscribe to our Substack!! This episode will also be up on our YouTube Channel. You can find the song at all of the links below - Reels and Promotional Content - Tour/show Dates (TBD) - *Paid Subs: Behind-the-scenes content coming your way shortly, as well as a FREE download of the song & a live stream video that was taken down of playing the song LIVE for the first time since released!

    The Backline Podcast - EP. 17: Riffs

    Ever wonder how we come up with our riffs? As you’ll learn through listening to our music, our riffs and how they “feel” are the backbone of our songs and sound. Most of our riffs are actually co-created, and are brought to life through process. From riffs that were going to be tossed to finding new life, to randomly playing and stumbling on to something usable, to going back through the archives and rehashing old, forgotten riffs - tune in to hear about how we write riffs, and eventually piece them together into a song!
