EPISODE 7: In this episode, biosphere and Club Boyband's very own Bu-Wan joins the podcast to talk about the ins and outs of the music industry. We touch on the pros and cons of signing with a major label, what it means to be an Asian in the industry and how sobriety has helped our careers.
IN THE LAB is an introspective podcast interviewing the current and next generation of creatives.
Hosted by biosphere, our goal is to inspire creatives, giving transparency on what it takes to succeed in the creative industries.
Whether its personal struggles, creative fulfillment, and/or striving for something more, we want you to know that you can do it too.
