In this episode of Poducer, we sit down with Artie Do Good — a genre-bending producer, trombonist, educator, and storyteller who fuses live jazz instrumentation with electronic music and deeply rooted political themes.

From his early days throwing ska shows in Kenosha to composing orchestral works in NYC, Artie walks us through his evolution as an artist, educator, and community builder. We dig into the influence of Chicago’s DIY scene, the impact of labor movements and socialist philosophy on his music, and the creative process behind his powerful album Socialist Dance Party.

We also explore the intersection of soulful composition and beat production, his dual life as a teacher and performer, and the growing movement of emotionally intelligent masculinity (aka himboism). Plus, he shares unreleased tracks, stories of musical mentorship, and memories of transformative shows like D’Angelo at Afropunk.

The Slow Burn of a Beautiful Dream with Jennifer Peterson

Welcome to Twice 5 Miles Radio. I’m your host, James Navé.

In this episode, I speak with Jennifer Peterson, founder of the Estelle Center for Creative Arts in La Veta, Colorado (https://estellecreativearts.com/).

Jennifer shares how a dream seeded by her grandmother's artistic spirit evolved into a vibrant retreat center for women to explore creativity, build community, and work with their hands. 

We talk about the emotional power of quilting, the quiet transformation that happens during a five-day retreat, and how making art becomes a way to live with more grace, connection, and resilience. Jennifer’s story is a masterclass in patience, purpose, and creative leadership.

Whether you’re a fiber artist, a retreat leader, or someone yearning to carve out creative time in a busy life, you’ll find inspiration here. Jennifer reminds us: you don’t have to know exactly how your dream will unfold—you just have to let it live long enough to find its form.

Listen in and discover how one woman’s quiet dream turned into a movement of creative restoration.

We talk about his first concert (Beyoncé in Miami), growing up on a reservation, and how the name “Medicine Place” represents something deeper than just music.

This episode touches on Native tradition, the healing power of sound, learning from elders, and how Electric Forest changed everything. Plus shoutouts to Snake Blood, Big Bird, and the Wiggles.

Medicine Place at Sound Haven 2024

Just when you thought summer was winding down, the West Coast sound has a new ruler, and her name is Ashanti Major. The CEO of Major Music is building a buzz with her "Major Gang" movement, and the momentum is palpable in her new single, "Actin' Up." This track is a masterclass in modern hip-hop, featuring a sleek, infectious beat and a confidence-soaked vocal performance that's both unapologetic and undeniably catchy. Consider this the anthem of the season—the kind of song that soundtracks a night out and fuels a grinding lifestyle—ready to light up playlists and dominate the charts.

CHIRP Radio is a music- and culture-focused community radio station for Chicago and the world.

Provocative Conversations from Twice 5 Miles Radio is a podcast devoted to candid, often surprising exchanges with artists, thinkers, and cultural instigators who speak from the core. Each episode dives beneath the surface to explore the stories and questions that shape our lives.

I’m James Navé—poet, storyteller, educator, and longtime creative collaborator. With an MFA from Vermont College of Fine Arts and decades of teaching experience across the globe, I help writers and performers tap into their authentic voices through public speaking, creative writing, and the Imaginative Storm method, which I co-developed with Allegra Huston.

My most recent book, 100 Days: A Poetic Memoir After Cancer (3: A Taos Press), documents a hundred days of healing and poetic reckoning. I’m also co-author of Write What You Don’t Know and How to Read for an Audience—practical guides for anyone seeking to speak and write with more truth and power.

I’ve directed festivals, hosted literary salons, taught with Julia Cameron, and memorized over 600 poems. I still believe in the power of a well-told story, the light through stained glass, and the open road with nothing but a podcast and a windshield full of stars.

Born and raised in South Florida, Chrohm comes from an African American and Cuban background. With the artistic allure that you’d expect to find in a talented Singer-Songwriter, he combines Hip-Hop/Soul with a 90s R&B flava and intimations of pain and pleasure. If you ask Chrohm where his unique sound came from he would humbly say, "WELL... JAMES BROWN WAS MY FIRST COUSIN, TWO TIMES REMOVED". 

Chrohm’s past work includes written & vocal collaborations with a few of the industry's top performers and producers, such as Gorilla Tek and Wyclef Jean. As a teenager he performed publicly in the Orange Bowl Parade televised before an audience of over 60 million. In 2014 he graduated from SAE Institute of Miami for Audio Technology where he studied under the tutelage of Charles Dye (First engineer to mix an entire song in Pro-Tools, winning a Grammy for Ricky Martin's Livin' La Vida Loca). 

In 2016 Chrohm won 1st place at the Coast 2 Coast Live event in Miami and was invited to the yearly conference as a VIP guest to represent Miami. 2018 was full of surprises, his hard work paid off big and Chrohm received the "Entertainer of the year award" from The Miami Award Program for his strong online presence and community work at events like Roc'Da Stage Live. 

Teaming up with South Florida’s powerhouse label Essential Media Group, where hot new mixes climb the charts and original works of past and present generations dominate in the world of Hollywood music, we finally get a chance to hear the highly anticipated release of “Message”.
