Music Production Podcast #102 with AfroDJMac

Yesterday I had the pleasure of being on the Music Production Podcast with AfroDJMac. We had a great talk about music, the creative process, and Star Wars. Very on brand for me.

Listen on iTunes or Stitcher or Google Play or Spotify; watch on YouTube.

If you’re interested in music production or the creative process you should check out the podcast. Also, if you make music in any capacity you should absolutely sign up for his Music Production Club which gives you access to an amazing new pack every month! It’s just $6 per month (or $50 if you sign up for a full year). It’s an amazing value to get access to some incredible packs for making music in Ableton.

Jamuary, Day 31: Mary Long

That’s a wrap for Jamuary this year! 31/31.
.
The final track is one of my favorite Deep Purple Mark II songs, “Mary Long.” For the final day I made the ill advised decision to sing an Ian Gillan song.

Eventually I’ll complete the song when I release the Jamuary 2019 album but here’s the first minute or so.

Jamuary, Day 27: The Soviet Slide

I was super excited when this pack was released from @samplesfrommars. I couldn’t wait to try it out!
.
From their site: In the 70s and 80s, the Soviet Union produced dozens of funky, raw, and wonderfully characterful synthesizers. Because the USSR was detached from the West’s exploding synthesis technologies, these machines bore their own mark that made them uniquely different than anything else produced in that era.

Jamuary, Day 23: Under Attack

Using @puremagnetic’s PM-8910 pack which is captured entirely from an original General Instruments AY-3-8910 three-voice programmable sound generator. This was used in the Intellivision.
.
I also used samples from the Mattel Synsonics drums and samples from one of my favorite video games of all time, Space Spartans!
