Baden-Württemberg
The state The 2pt5 podcast is hosted is “Baden-Württemberg” in the Southwest of Germany. The word is hard to pronounce, even in German. Have a look a the video for an idea of how to say it and get an idea of what we are up to:
The place is located between France, the Rhine river and Bavaria. As well as North of the Swiss Alps with the beautiful Lake Constance/Bodensee in the South.

People often ask “what is a podcast?” And are very happy, when they discover this great way to listen to great stuff. A podcast is an easy way to listen to favorite shows on your own schedule. While commuting, exercising or relaxing.
Most start with a show they listen to on the radio and discover new shows over time. E.g. NPR has a great range of their shows available as a podcast.

Music Producer Immex – about finding new beats, honoring tradition, Unbox Therapy and Mark Knopfler
The very first episode, enjoy!
This time I am going to talk to musician and music producer Hristijan Ivanovski from Macedonia also known as Immex about his music and the process to create his work.
We are talking about his love for Mark Knopflers music, the influcence of Jedi Mind Tricks and music producer Gramatik on his development as a musician. Immex is a self taught guitar player, that started with passion for music and with the help of his community as he has a lot of friends in bands, a network he draws upon often.
He likes hip-hop and rock’n’roll and is situated in between genres. He actually prefers this sometimes uncomfortable place between two chairs and accepts it as a source of inspiration.
As an Innovator Immex is switching between classical Guitar and a Laptop as his favorite instruments to create music. Today he is multi instrumental, playing also drums, base guitar, keyboards and even sings. His beats are used on major Youtube channels such as Unbox Therapy with more than 15 mill. fans. He is a master of the computer as a complex instrument but he loves playing the guitar and keeps one around all the time.
