Our take on Dissect podcast

Dissect, by Cole Cuchna, is your weekly music exploration. One episode at a time, Cole Cuchna doesn't just play music; he lets you feel and understand it deeply. From his teenage years in bands to studying music theory, Cuchna offers a fresh look at music. And he knows a lot. What's special about Dissect? Cuchna and guests (expect top critics, scholars and musicians) dissect songs and albums, like Radiohead's In Rainbows and Tyler, The Creator's IGOR, layer by layer. But there's more. It's also about stories, like MF DOOM's journey from New York to Madvillainy. There, you have some examples of the great stuff waiting for you in Dissect. A step to discovering the secrets of music. Dissect is a music podcast by The Ringer.
