About this show

Introduction

In the first outing of Roots and Roads, Dominik explores the path of music through songs he likes, including tracks by Doc Watson and Alison Krauss and Union Station. The programme features a segment on non-English language music, specifically a Russian piece about an epic poem, and a discussion on multifaceted artists who create content specifically for YouTube.

Dominik presents the first outing of Roots and Roads, focusing on music he likes. He selects 'Walk on Boy' by Doc Watson and 'the lucky one' by Alison Krauss and Union Station, the latter being a song he likes more than many others. Dominik also discusses the presence of multifaceted and talented artists on YouTube who create content specifically for the platform, rather than using it as a promotional tool for music videos like major stars.

It is amazing how many really talented and multifaceted artists there are on YouTube who just basically create videos for YouTube rather than just simply putting up their latest music video on Vivos like like all the the big stars do. And there is so much.
