We lowered the annual subscription price of Nebula (with creator code) to $30. That’s 50% off the regular price.

Happy holidays πŸŽ„

How Do You Tell the Story of Fela Kuti? YouTube video by Polyphonic

New video is up on YouTube now! I've wanted to do a video talking about Fela for a long time now, and I've always admired the work of Jad Abumrad. To be able to combine both those in one video was incredible.

For the last few months I've had the pleasure of collaborating with Mercury Studios on a new series. They let me plunder their archives to tell the stories of some overlooked or forgotten concert films from the 1970s. You can check out the first episode now!

Polyphonic β€” Understanding The lake it is said never gives up her dead when the skies of November turn gloomy

A little late for the 50th Anniversary, but still a timeless video I hope. As a Canadian with family history on Lake Superior, "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" has always held a special place in my heart. Really excited to get a chance to talk about it on the channel.
