The very first episode, enjoy!

This time I am going to talk to musician and music producer Hristijan Ivanovski from Macedonia also known as Immex about his music and the process to create his work.

We are talking about his love for Mark Knopflers music, the influcence of Jedi Mind Tricks and music producer Gramatik on his development as a musician.

Immex is a self taught guitar player, that started with passion for music and with the help of his community as he has a lot of friends in bands, a network he draws upon often.

He likes hip-hop and rock’n'roll and is situated in between genres.

He actually prefers this sometimes uncomfortable place between two chairs and accepts it as a source of inspiration.

As an Innovator Immex is switching between classical Guitar and a Laptop as his favorite instruments to create music.

Today he is multi instrumental, playing also drums, base guitar, keyboards and even sings.

His beats are used on major Youtube channels such as Unbox Therapy with more than 15 mill. fans

He is a master of the computer as a complex instrument but he loves playing the guitar and keeps one around all the time.  He again supports his friends bands regularly in their shows.

He has build his own style as a musician and a producer and believes he is still on a journey with more to come.

Immex is using the digital platforms to his advantage to address a global audience from his hometown in Macedonia.

In our conversation Immex also talks about the right place and time to be creative and about the Vision that starts his projects.

His dream is to play with Mark Knopfler from the Dire Straights.

Immex is also the creator of this show's theme song.

This is the first episode. Starting the podcast with a conversation with a musician seemed appropriate. The bandwidth of the creative as well as the commercial process a musician has to cover is enormous and serves as a good example for innovators I think.

Music Producer Immex - about finding new beats, honoring tradition, Unbox Therapy and Mark Knopfler

In this episode my guest is Marty Neumeier a Designer/ideas man/brand expert and teacher - about his no BS approach to ideas, the purpose and limits of business books for innovation, achieving minimalism in creating

We are talking about
- that you don't have to be a genius to be an innovator
- the importance of dreaming as an innovator as well as making and continous learning
- the importance of a vision for making to get to results
- focusing and leaving out the bs in business books and
- learning from The Grateful Dead.


Marty Neumeier is an ideas man and a teacher in the best sense of the word.
He has written several books about branding, creativity and innovation which became classics in their field. Marty is full of energy and ideas, and the conviction and hope that his ideas truely add value for the readers or his course participants (he just added Masterclasses to his line of focused business books).


Marty Neumeiers's Books
Marty is no fan of business BS. He cuts straight to the point without oversimplifying things. "I have just tried to make it simple" is one of the hardest thing to do, dodging the irrelevant to focus on the important. THE BRAND GAP (2003) and ZAG (2006) come to mind instantly. The phrase “A brand isn’t what you say it is—it’s what they say it is.” is common knowledge now. In his third book, THE DESIGNFUL COMPANY, he addressed how business leaders can build a culture of nonstop innovation. One of his secrets: "If you wanna innovate, you gotta design."


Masterclasses
In his live Masterclasses, he is bringing his teaching to a next level: the classes are for professionals that put in an effort and want to evolve their knowledge, networks and careers. Find more information and enroll for classes here: https://www.levelc.org
