#19 shy!!!: Shively, J Dilla, & Building Louisville From the Inside

shy!!! is a producer from Shively, Louisville, Kentucky and if you've been paying attention to what's coming out of this city, his name keeps showing up. A placement on Jack Harlow's JACKMAN. Executive production credits. A beat tape in whatuuseeisallreal!!! that moves with the precision and vision of a full film. And all of it rooted in a philosophy of sound that traces back to J Dilla, community, and a deep respect for the craft. In this conversation, Chris and shy!!! talk about growing up in Shively, what it means to find yourself in the process of making music, the blur between discovering a beat and creating one, and how consciousness itself plays a role in what ends up on the track. They also get into the Louisville scene, collective building, and what 2026 is shaping up to be. Conversations With Carswell is produced by Carswell Media Group.

#17 Coach Cam, Hoosier, Kuda Baby, & Jettbaby Dada

This time around I sat down with Coach Cam, Hoosier, Jettbaby Dada, and Kuda Baby just a few days before their set at the final No Comply. This episode’s a little out of the ordinary — we had five people on the mics at once, kept it loose, and let the conversation breathe. So bear with us through any small audio foibles along the way. We got into punk’s relationship with hip-hop, the histories behind some of our favorite artists, and just had a genuinely fun, merry conversation in the days leading up to one of the most exciting shows Louisville has seen in a minute.
