Stereoactive Media
Newsletter (Digital)
Stereoactive Media launched in 2020 as a project incubator. In addition to being a record label, it offers creative and logistical consultation and, when possible, helps with production services for artists and producers working on anything from music and design to podcasts, videos, and more. Begun by J. McVay, the goal is to not only help individual artists and producers, but also to help build and foster a community of people who 1) make things and 2) support creative people. In that way, it’s meant as a continuation of the mission and spirit of previous projects like Fort Useless and StereoactiveNYC.
The intention is to run the venture with the ideals of a B corporation, balancing financial considerations with a sense of purpose. With that in mind, any revenue not spent on administrative costs and overhead will be put directly into future projects by artists and producers Stereoactive Media works with or into building resources to make those pursuits more achievable and sustainable. Additionally, projects that can directly raise money or otherwise build support for worthy causes that benefit society or a community will be pursued regularly Source

Over the course of roughly three months, I put out a 1-3 minute piece of music/video nearly each week. The goal was to start with nothing and quickly come up with something interesting. When I started the project, I wasn't sure how long I'd go with it – either make it an ongoing thing for as long as possible or get a good number of them done and pause.
Ambient Thoughts w/ theJLM... After Trump: The Elon Problem
Hello friends and followers. Since the closure of <REDACTED> 5 years ago, where I produced and hosted a podcast that focused heavily on politics and current events (as well as culture, but for now I'm talking about the current events and politics track), I've toyed with and even done a few different versions of concepts to kind of pick that back up in some fashion.

"Burn It All Down" by theJLM [Preview Clip]
Because of the holiday earlier in the week, I didn't have a chance to work on my usual weekly music/video piece, so here's a clip, instead, from a video I'm working on for a new/upcoming track called "Burn It All Down." And while it's not explicitly about September 11th, it is tangentially related to it, so I thought it might be an appropriate summation of my general feelings on the post 9/11 world we're still very much in, 25 years down the line. LYRICS: The future of war is the war of now.
