Dissident Mama, episode 58 - Foundring
Manage episode 327001065 series 2898227
Foundring is the moniker of pianist and singer/songwriter Kylan deGhetaldi. With a speciality in ragtime and early jazz, Kylan started one of the first YouTube channels featuring ragtime and "stride" piano. But Foundring is also known for his satirical songs about conspiracies and other social commentary, some of which have been suppressed, with a few being outright banned by the technocrats. Kylan has been a touring member of the international sensation Postmodern Jukebox, with whom he has performed in over 50 cities on four continents. When he’s not triggering the feelz of YouTube and Band Camp censors or performing live, the Santa Cruz-native is also proud dad to a 10-year-old daughter, as well as a top-ranked Scrabble player and one of the world's fastest anagrammers.
Kylan and I discuss the role of the modern court jester, the power of flying under the censorious radar, memetic warfare for narrative control, trolling the gatekeepers in order to break through the algorithms, artistic supply and demand, covid-era struggles, present-day pivots, how Cali rebels need a cool name, and more. Here are all the ways to follow and support Foundring’s valuable work cuz the “spicy songs must flow”: SubscribeStar, GumRoad, YouTube, Odysee, Twitch, BitChute, Rumble, Gab, Telegram, and PayPal.
A few choice ditties mentioned in our conversation include:
- “Oy Vey, Shut It Down”
- “The Pandemic Dance (do the ‘rona)”
- “You Will Never Be a Woman”
- “Alex Jones Was Right”
- “Foil”
- And my essay Russia-Ukraine: Through a Dixian essay, part 2 which features two Foundring videos and was the impetus for me finding his clever content and consequently reaching out for an interview: his first!
