Hi everyone,

I hope you are gearing up for an exciting weekend. To help get you started, I have new episodes of the Music Production Podcast and some incredible FREE Downloads of samples, tutorials, and guides to share!

Serik aka Hyperbits on Navigating the Dark Night of the Soul

Hyperbits has done some really cool stuff in his career. He’s remixed Beyonce, Tove Lo and Nick Jonas. He’s worked with labels like Universal, Sony, Ultra and Island. And he's built a music production school in the process. Serik and I had a great conversation about finding a career path in music and overcoming those soul crushing moments we all run into during the process.

Making Music with Black Holes with Valery Vermeulen

Valery Vermeulen is a Belgian mathematician, lecturer, data analyst, and electronic musician. His new album, Mikromedas, was made using data from black holes. Valery and I spoke about many things way over my head, including how black holes work, time travel, and worm holes. And it all connects back to making music! Valery's impressive works are an amazing example of how we can find musical inspiration anywhere, even beyond our galaxy!
