I know many of you have seen Breaking Bad, the globally popular show. Today's guest has some tracks that are featured on it. He's also got music on Netflix's reboot of the anime series Cowboy Bebop that was just released.

From the beautiful European city of Copenhagen, composer, pianist, and producer Asger Baden joins us on the Classical Post podcast. Also with us in the same virtual studio, the famous Danish Illustrator, John Kenn Mortensen. The two artists actually collaborated on a recent album of Asger's music, released on the Neue Meister label. John did the cover art illustration.

I thought it would be fascinating to have a discussion on creativity and making space for it in our lives. Too often our physical space (at home or at the office) is not conducive to the type of work we do — that is, to maximize our quality output.

Many in the corporate world have now realized this working from home. But having a comfortable work space is part of how people in the arts have functioned for years. My guests today speak to carving out a zone that helps you produce your best work.

We also speak on how John and Asger view success and their differing viewpoints, as well as their collaboration on this new album.
