   EP 37: Building a Global Dance Music Movement with Indo Warehouse

   In this episode of Redefining Music, Kay Cote sits down with Indo Warehouse at The Concourse Project in Austin for a conversation about culture, community, creativity, and the sound they have spent the last several years building. Indo Warehouse was born from a desire to bring South Asian culture into dance music in a way that felt authentic, while creating a space for a community that was looking for exactly that. We talk about how the project has evolved, why you cannot force the creative process, and the story behind the Spice Trade Tour, which draws inspiration from the exchange of cultures, sounds, textiles, and ideas across South Asia, the Middle East, and beyond. There are also those moments that can only happen on the road, including making a new track in the car on the way to the venue and deciding to play it that same night. It is a conversation about what happens when music becomes more than a genre and starts becoming a place where people, culture, and sound can meet.

   EP 35: Defend Your Art: Mylo Bard on Building a Creative Career

   Absolutely — here are YouTube-ready show notes for the Mylo Bard episode with a 1-paragraph description, timestamps, and key takeaways. In this live episode of Redefining Music, Kay sits down with Mylo Bard to talk about what it really takes for artists and creative entrepreneurs to build sustainable careers in music. With over 20 years in media, entertainment, sports, film, music, and business consulting, Mylo shares how artists can protect their creative time, build systems that actually work for their creative minds, and turn their skill sets into real income. This conversation dives into the “zone of genius,” why artists need to defend their art before the world validates it, and how cross-discipline skills, community, and concentration can help creatives build capital without losing who they are. Timestamps / Chapters: 00:00 — Welcome to Redefining Music + meet Mylo Bard 00:37 — Mylo’s background in sports, film, music, and entertainment 02:31 — From church music to metal bands, film school, sports, and creative business 04:37 — Finding your zone of genius as an artist 07:22 — Why systems matter for creatives 09:43 — Building systems that work with your creative mind 12:46 — Defend your art, your skill set, and your time 15:57 — Why artists need to stop being hard on themselves 18:44 — The 3 C’s to capital: cross-discipline, community, and concentration 22:13 — Building community and turning everyday connections into opportunity 25:43 — Abundance, manifestation, and noticing what’s already in front of you 29:30 — Gratitude, mindset, and finding abundance in everyday life Key Takeaways: Your art is important before it makes money or earns outside validation. Creative systems don’t have to feel restrictive — they can be designed around how you naturally work. Artists have more monetizable skills than they realize, including sales, leadership, communication, taste, and community-building. Building a career in music requires protecting your creative time and treating it like a real commitment. Community is a resource — the people around you can help create momentum, opportunity, and income. Abundance starts with noticing what is already available in front of you and taking action from there. Subscribe for more artist stories, industry insight, and career growth conversations.
