Jordan Rudess is a composer, music technologist, and keyboardist for progressive metal group Dream Theater. Jordan was voted "the best keyboardist of all-time" by Music Radar. He founded Wizdom Music to push the boundaries of music technology. Their newest release is GeoShred 5, a highly expressive, MPE instrument for iOS and soon desktop. Jordan also plays in the prog-metal super-group Liquid Tension Experiment, who are releasing their new album on March 26th, 2021. Jordan and I sat down to talk about his work in Dream Theater and Wizdom Music. Jordan shared his outlook on the future of expressive digital instruments, highlighting both the advantages and challenges these new devices provide musicians.  Listen on iTunes or Stitcher or Google Play or Spotify; watch on YouTube Jordan Rudess Links: Jordan's Web Site: https://www.jordanrudess.com Wizdom Music and GeoShred 5: https://www.wizdommusic.com Jordan Rudess Online Conservatory: https://www.jroc.us Liquid Tension Experiment: https://www.jordanrudess.com/liquid-tension-experiment-release-video-for-first-single-the-passage-of-time-2/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/JordanRudessKeys Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jcrudess/ Join Jordan on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Jordanrudess Show Notes: Music Radar's Greatest Keyboardists of All-Time: https://www.musicradar.com/news/the-30-greatest-synth-players-of-all-time-keyboard-wizards-programming-gurus-and-sound-design-legends Sonubus: https://sonobus.net Haken Continuum: https://www.hakenaudio.com Roli Seaboard: https://roli.com/products/seaboard Artiphone Orba: https://artiphon.com Brian Funk Links: Website - https://brianfunk.com Music Production Club - https://brianfunk.com/mpc Music Production Podcast - https://brianfunk.com/podcast Save 25% on Ableton Live Packs at My Store with the code: PODCAST This episode is sponsored by Vareschi Mastering: https://www.vareschimastering.com/home Thank you for listening.  Please review the Music Production Podcast on your favorite podcast provider!
