Mac DeMarco's New Web Series Will Teach You 'Advanced Studio Recording Techniques'

The show is available through artist-run platform Eternal Family

These days, if Mac DeMarco isn't directing your video, he's probably guesting in it. Adding to his reel, the Canadian is now the host of his own music show through which he'll reveal Advanced Recording Techniques.

The 12-minute pilot episode of Advanced Recording Techniques arrives as part of Eternal Family, a new artist-run streaming platform from Canadian filmmaker, animator and DeMarco collaborator Cole Kush.

The first episode finds DeMarco demonstrating how artists can fashion a spare room into an echo chamber. As you can see in the still above, the liberal application of petroleum jelly to one's face is a necessity when preparing to enter the Tone Zone™.

Launching the platform with a trailer on Instagram, which you can find below, Kush described Eternal Family as "an artist-run video membership experience and a place to try out new ideas, whether for 'laughing' or for 'education' or 'inspiration.'"

A subscription costs $5 a month for unlimited, ad-free access; 60 percent of Eternal Family's monthly revenue goes to the creators, while the rest will cover "operation costs and funds to create & license more interesting things."

Kush previously directed the video for DeMarco's "Here Comes the Cowboy," the title track of his fourth studio LP that arrived last year.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Hello friends. I really hope you are feeling OK out there. I want to share a project I've been working on for many months with a group of artists that I love. It is called "Eternal Family" - @eternalfamily.tv - an artist-run video membership experience and a place to try out new ideas, whether for "laughing" or for "education" or "inspiration." It costs $5/month for unlimited access & no ads. 60% of the monthly revenue goes to our creators and the rest to operations & funds to create and license more interesting things. You can cancel anytime if you do NOT enjoy this service. The goal is to create stable income and a place to try out ideas that can be self-produced and perhaps hard to pitch. More monthly users =  more funds to create more shows and add apps for mobile & TV. Here is a trailer to show what's on the site and there's lots more coming down the pipe I'm excited to share :)
