But alcohol has zero health benefits whatsoever, the only positive I can see is that for a brief window of time it can be a social lubricant. Let’s also be honest it doesn’t even taste good. The cool thing is, once you...

    13 Reasons Why Recording an Album is a TERRIBLE IDEA!

    Maschine MK3 vs. MPC One

    Man it just depends, Maschine mk3 Is still more powerful overall. But obviously the Live is portable. Also the Maschine always feels like an amazing controller where the MPC’s feel like instruments in their own right. It’s also nice to be able to get away from the computer. So it really depends...

    Dude some of the songs they are working on are 20 years old. Also a lot of the plugins I used back in the day I didn't have any more. There is always little things that get you.

    Quick tip if you want to ever work with a record label.

    Im still learning the money side but honestly I WANT the label to make a ton of money. To keep them interested in pushing Drunk Pedestrians. So far they have been an amazing partner.
