"con-so-la-she-un" is killing me right now hahahahaha
It's #BandcampFriday and I have a new single out.
If you're into meticulously produced pop songs about your inner child then you should 100% give it a listen!
My music and YT work is featured on Ableton's blog and homepage this week! Such an awesome experience. You can also listen to my new single there as well!

This is so cool! In perhaps the most understated use of the effect, I've been loving leaving the tremolo at 0% and using the vintage tremolo saturation. It just has such a nice character to it.
I've had a few requests so I most definitely will!
Thank you!!!
The thumbnail is everything π
@akashthakkar.com and I recorded 30,000 bees from INSIDE the hive and you won't believe the music I turned it into
I empathize with the difficulty of running a huge event but I would argue that devs have ALWAYS valued GDC but not paying speakers, the high ticket price, and expensive host city has not shown any mutuality.
Best of luck with the festival.
How many ways can Spotify say βWe donβt value artistsβ without actually saying it?

IN LESS THAN A YEAR! Absolutely wild!!!
Both have such a cool aesthetic, though!
"First, please remember: There are no advanced techniques, only advanced application of the fundamentals."
Prepping slides fro the upcoming term and I'm always grateful for this reminder.

I googled a question about Digital Performer and google's automatic AI response gives me a video about Logic Pro alongside a screenshot from Ableton Live. π
Half of my mixing process is checking in mono and then fixing some of the flippant stereo shit I did when producing π
Sega is gearing up for the heist of a lifetime rn
I wrote yesterday about how shifting contexts end up being both problem and the solution and this email is sure part of the latter.
βBro you are doing so well! Hang in there and dont do anything rash! Your teaching style is awesome and inspiring! You WILL reach a point where the numbers turn around again! Stay true to your mission and your core audience! Its not a competition! Im looking forward to your next videos! Much brotherly love from Denmark -Jesperβ
I received this incredibly kind email from one of my subscribers on the clear other side of the world.
The fact that my music, writings, and videos has impacted anybody enough to reach out to me from halfway around the world is mind boggling!
Can I tell you a cool story?
Yesterday, I got candid in my newsletter about how recent videos doing poorly has diminished my excitement over how close I am to 10,000 subscribers.
Then I woke up to something unexpected. π§΅
Still looking forward to that jewelry thread π€π»
Footgolf with @cpsqueaks.bsky.social and @sabrinafedeleaudio.bsky.social today!
@ericmazer.bsky.social is the person to thank for this neat idea of a panel!
RIP Patchwerks
This was some of the most fun I've ever had onstage!

PAX West was a ton of fun! My highlight was our packed Friday night panel, in which I sampled the entire audience (and ONLY the audience) to make the music for the game.
I also vlogged the whole thing from onstage π
Check it out!
Thanks for flagging this as Iβm so bummed by the slow ensuing death of Arc and needed a replacement!
