Podcast Overview

A Strange Arrangement is a podcast where the same song gets rearranged again and again...and again.....and again. It is about the many ways we can rearrange music into different forms - twisting, pulling, adding and subtracting pieces and parts until you achieve a desired outcome. On this show, a different musician takes the same song - ”Auld Lang Syne” - and rearranges it via rhythm, harmony, and more. By observing and hearing how others rearrange music, hopefully you too will get ideas on how to compose and orchestrate music yourself! asamusicpodcast.com Rob McCarthy is the editor, technician, theme song writer, producer (what is that?), and host of this podcast. Daniel Joel Newman created our cover art. You can find more of his work at danieljoelnewman.com
