Addiction, The Road to Recovery, and Electronic Music with Mr. Bill

Joining us on the show this week is the globally renowned electronic music producer, educator, and performer, Mr. Bill. In this conversation we talk about the incredibly important subject of substance abuse and recovery. Having gone through his own stint of addiction, we dive into his story of struggling to stay afloat while being a touring musician and the hard fought battle of getting sober. We also share our mutual appreciation of electronic music, production, and the rave scene which undoubtedly changed both of our lives.

All of Bill's work can be found streaming wherever you find your music - with his tutorials solely on mrbillstunes.com.

His new album, 'Mechanomorphic' is out on April 12th through Monstercat! The first two singles, 'Bones' and 'Rawthentic w/ Infected Mushroom' are out now on all streaming platforms.
