Next time you feel like making music, imagine if you could jump into an Xbox-style lobby and collaborate in real-time with artists from around the world to create a track—all while using your current DAW setup.
That's a future Diego Pinzon, CEO and co-founder of DAWn Audio, is working to make a reality. Diego joins us to share his vision for a live music creation network that allows artists to transcend the limitations of traditional studios, digital audio workstation (DAW) learning curves, and physical location. This episode offers a look at how DAWn Audio is bridging the gap between emerging talent and seasoned pros through its technology, creating a community of spontaneous creativity and learning opportunities.
We discuss the value of music as a creative journey, through an Ana Gabriel cover performed by Diego, his father and his uncle. We dive into the nuances of creating environments conducive to creativity, whether through physical spaces and events like Dreamville's 10-day "Revenge of the Dreamers 3" artist camp, or via digital platforms like DAWn. From J Dilla and Madlib's legendary Jaylib collaboration, to fostering connections across generations (exemplified by the pervasive sampling of Hank Crawford's timeless track "Wildflower"), this conversation uncovers how music acts as a timeless thread linking artists and audiences alike.
Throughout, we discuss the technological and community innovation DAWn brings to the table, particularly in eliminating the barriers for musicians to collaborate on their own terms, and focusing on the communal cultural impact the act of music-making has within communities.
