I recently had the privilege to interview Jordan Rudess from the progressive rock/metal band, Dream Theater, while the band was on tour. Not only is Jordan an amazing keyboard player, but he also is a big geek. So like most musicians, he combined his passion for music and technology, and released an application to the App Store. His first application is called JR Hexatone [App Store link], is a 6-directional drum machine / melodic sequence generator for the iPhone/iPod Touch. What’s more cool is that Jordan actually uses the app while playing during shows and recordings. JR Hexatone is just the first of many apps to come from Jordan.
Below you’ll find an interview that I did with Jordan before a show in San Jose on August 27.
