The Art of Audio #1: "Did you hear THAT?"

The Joe Bev Experience


The Art of Audio #1




My dad bought me a Panasonic cassette recorder in 1971, I was 12 years old.


Listen to my Father's Day story for NPR's Weekend Edition Sunday
It was the beginning of summer. June. Last day of school. The smell of cut grass as a walk up our driveway. Clear blue sky. Sun on my face and arms. Dad trimming a bush in front of our house.

Me (Joe Bev.) in 1963




I remember the day so well because it was the day my future was set. I soon became an audio artist.



I had been drawing a series of silly nine panel cartoons of Willaby and the Professor, as I called them then. Hundreds of pages. Serialized. In Hanna-Barbera style. Ring around the mouth.



Listen to me improvising Willaby (Willoughby)
Meets the Godfather in 1972 when I was 13









Now I had a way to record their voices!


Men, women, young, old, babies, dogs, cats, otters, every accent on the planet poured out of my mouth. 

Joe Bev Rubber Face

Within a few years, I was on the radio. Reel to reel. Stereo. Digital. 3-D.

Listen to Chapter 17 of Ancient Rising by Jc De La Torre.

Today my work is enjoyed around the world. That makes me happy! 

But how can audio be art? Tune in next time and find out...

Best to you all,

Joe Bev.

Ringtones 2: Ghost and Ludwig
Fred's comments:
On the ringtones: When Ben approached me with the idea of doing my father's voices for ring tones, I just couldn't turn it down. It seems a lot of people still want to hearthose familiar characters enough to carry them around on their mobile devices. We'll probably do more them in the future.


Ben's comments:
Ringtones: I've been a Huge fan of comedy all my life, and was intrigued, browsing around amazon, that there were companies doing whole comedy ringtone albums. Obviously, a ringtone isn't just music! Also, way back, I had the Monty Python's Complete Waste of Time game, which included a trillion sound bytes you could use for computer sounds. Plus answering machine messages. So I thought, why not do an album of funny voices for a plethora of uses. The trouble was, we came up with enough for 3 albums' worth! We'll do a 3rd one soon.
