    BMP (Buffalo Music Players) Episode 32: Armani Power aka Waeko

    Send us Fan Mail Armani Power was on the BMP pod at the end of Black History Month, and he had a song for the occasion. A believer in communication and information, Armani shared his journey in hip-hop, R&B, rap, and even country in an overwhelmingly musical world. But he didn't expect to be good at music, so maybe it's surprising he's getting comments like "fire" and invites on collaborations as he spreads his talent amongst the scene right here in Buffalo, New York. If you've seen him, you know. He's expecting more performances in the near future and he's not to be missed. Hear him talk about it all right here on BMP.

    BMP (Buffalo Music Players) BREAKING EPISODE: Curt Rotterdam and ReFringe

    Send us Fan Mail In a very important message for Buffalo residents and visitors, Curt Rotterdam, longtime Buffalo locale, came to the BMP pod to talk the Fringe, Infringement and finally Refringe: the newest Allentown showcase coming in May. Many may remember Curt from his days booking at Nietzsche's in Allentown, or from playing in his band, Anal Pudding. These days Curt likes to make visual art and we met him at his art space downtown. Operating on very little sleep, Curt lay on his couch and talked the good ole days, his many years booking shows in Infringement, and why he had to walk away from that yearly event to do something new. Check it out on this very special episode of BMP.

    BMP (Buffalo Music Players) Episode 31: AnnMarie Georgia

    Send us Fan Mail The first ceramicist on the BMP podcast, AnnMarie Georgia, was a great guest as she explained some of her craft, not to mention a few stories, to the lay art observers that are Ben and Max. We all had a lot of fun talking to this college-educated artist who had a lot of insight into the Buffalo art scene and art scenes all around. If you've ever thought about going to school for art, or just pursuing the art game out-of-school, this is an episode you would be better off listening to for the facts of the matter.

    BMP (Buffalo Music Players) Episode 30: Guy Valentino

    Send us Fan Mail Hi listeners, this is the BMP podcast and I'm Benjamin Joe. This episode we have a very special guest, Guy Valentino, and for this one we'd like to preface the interview with a statement from BMP's cohost, Max Fisher: "I've known Guy for many years. I don't know exactly how many, but we met on Reddit before COVID. I was instantly enamored with his creativity and his approach to music. Guy is extremely passionate, creative, and has a big heart. "Honestly, the genesis of the BMP podcast came from him. A while ago, I was talking to him about posting my art (music and the like) because I was stil very trepidatious about sharing my work and being judged.  "But then Guy gave me a speech that changed my perspective. I can't remember it word-for-word, but the gist was: if you're an artist, don't you want to be seen? There are so many artists in the world who never get to be recognize for what they create. If you have a chance, why not take it and show what you can do? That idea led to a flow of thoughts that brought us to this moment. And all thanks to Guy. He is the producer for over 95% of my music, but more than that, he's my friend and I'm happy to provide a platform where we can show his firs album 'Cupid'. Thanks for shooting the arrow that helped me come up with important ideas, and to fellow listeners, you're in for a treat. Love you, bro."

    BMP (Buffalo Music Players) Episode 29: Courtney Zach

    Send us Fan Mail BMP takes some time to talk to Courtney Zach about books and letters, if those letters are in fact drawings of surprisingly cute animals and if those books are written by her. Courtney was a great guest, talking about her time in South Korea, as well as about whales in other parts of the world. She was frank about her knowledge of local music in the area (she does not know it) and Max and Ben introduced her to Stress Dolls as a gateway drug to that wonderful world. All in all a good episode with real people, Ben and Max and Courtney, don't get it twisted, had a great time and hope to reconvene at some later date as projects get completed for any and all spiritual animals in the spiritual zoo that occupies Courtney's time.
