Modular Loop Pack Vol 1

Hey Everyone,

I've recorded 80 percussive loops from my Eurorack rig using modules like Rene, Instruo Cs-L, Plaits, and others, running through a A-106-5 SEM filter and some UAD EQs and compressors. 

While these may initially sound like they are only fit for electro or techno, I'...

Spicing Up Your Sounds

Hey Everyone,

In this video I went through a number of native Ableton effects demonstrating how they can be used to spice up a very boring and static pad sound. The techniques in this video are meant to be used on any number of sounds, whether drums, pads, leads, bass, etc. and can often in...

Enamour @ Brooklyn Steel, NY - Feb 24 2018

Hey Everyone, time to reach deep into the set archives! This recording is from my opening (and then headlining) set at Brooklyn Steel in 2018. This was part of Lane 8's album tour and he got food poisoning that night so I was told mid-opening set that I would have to play for the rest of the nigh...

Simpler Slice Technique

Hey Everyone,

Back today with a quick video on a technique I've used in the past to help inspire ideas from melodic loops, field recordings, or audio clips that I've bounced from VST synths. It's super simple and can be left to complete randomness and still produce cool results.

Open to Close Pt II at Flash, Washington DC 7/5/21

Hey Everyone,

Part II of my Open to Close set starts off right after the live violin section and goes through for 4.5 hours. I definitely got a little silly with it towards the end for the crowd that stuck around past the scheduled closing--I blame the mezcal. Enjoy!

Exclusive Track - Run Away Tears

Hey everyone, here is the next exclusive, unreleased track for Patrons only. It's a mashup I made of the vocal from "Run Away" and my remix of "Tears" by Donatello.

Getting a New Perspective on Your Music

Kick Sampling Technique

Hey Everyone, I wanted to share the technique I use for sampling kicks. This technique allows you to get a bit more isolation when a kick isn't completely alone in a song's intro/outro. It also allows you to do your own rebalancing of each part of the kick's frequency spectrum which can be very h...

A note on kick tuning: I tagged each with the fundamental pitch but PLEASE take this with a grain of salt. Tuning your kicks (or just...

Exclusive Track - Still Life (Darker Dub)

Hey everyone, here is the next exclusive, unreleased track for Patrons only. It's a darker club edit I made of Still Life before its release. It's always been a cool secret weapon in my sets since it's instantly recognizable but has a big twist in the drop. Might be a little less of an emotional ...

Arpeggio Tips - "Run Away"

Hey Everyone,

I was going through some old clips from my first course on IO and came across this one that I think might be very helpful for a lot of you. It's all about arpeggios and uses my track 'Run Away' as an example. Even if you took the course, it might be a nice refresher!
