5 Years of Weekly Virtual Mix Tapes- Guest Curator: Paul Klimson of Theory One Productions

Made You A Mix

Weekly Virtual Mix Tape: January 29th, 2025

We're celebrating the upcoming 5th anniversary of the Weekly Virtual Mix Tape at Red Chuck Productions!

For nearly half a decade, we've been bringing you collections of great music from near and far, from artists on stages large and small. Now it's time for Justin to step aside and hand over the reins to a few of those artists and friends.

To celebrate, we've invited a series of guests curators to share some favorites tunes of their own. We'll be checking in with past Anywhere The Needle Drops guests and old friends of Red Chuck Productions!

Paul Klimson of Theory One Productions brings us our next set of tunes!

Paul has worked for over two decades creating magic in audio, staging, video, and lighting, working with major stars such as Justin Timberlake, John Legend, and The Roots and working for years on the nightly The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

Paul is now turning toward new major, based in Niles, Michigan and working out of Theory One Studios.

Read his thoughts on his playlist below:

1. Daniel Lanois-

   1. Album: Shine

   2. Song: Power of One

   3. Daniel is the most influential producer in my creative musical journey.

2. Bright Eyes-

   1. Album: I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning

   2. Song: Old Soul Song (for the New World Order)

   3. This album will forever remind me of New York. My wonderfully talented friend, Dave Burns, gave me this cd upon arrival in New York City, after convincing us to move there from Nashville. This was my daily commute sound track for a good two years.

3. The Roots-

   1. Album: Rising Down

   2. Song: I Will Not Apologize

   3. This album was my introduction to The Roots the first time that I got to work with them in person. It changed my life in 100 ways.

4. Tanya Tucker-

   1. Album: Live From The Troubadour

   2. Song: James Town Ferry (Live From The Troubadour

   3. Hands down the most inspiring artist in all of country music history.

5. Queen-

   1. Album: Live Aid (Live, 13th, July 1985)

   2. Song: Bohemian Rhapsody/Radio Gaga

   3. This performance is a master class on all live performances.
