What do magic, music, and sound design have in common? Nathan Rantala.

This week on CK Café, we're joined by Nathan Rantala; a sound designer, musician, and magician (yes, you read that right). Nathan joins us for a conversation about building a creative career that refuses to fit into one box. He has designed sound for independent films, performs and records music as one half of the indie duo 'All I Do Is Daydream', and has captivated more than 587,000 followers online with his mind-bending card magic.

We dive into the art of storytelling through sound, balancing multiple creative passions, building an audience online, and why following your curiosity can lead to the most unexpected opportunities.
