We always want to encouraging you to create and release music! So, with that in mind, I created a free platform called membershipcollab.com that can help you all better connect with other students in this community for collaboration! In my opinion, collaboration is the #1 way to help increase your skills and grow as a musician, engineer or producer. The new membershipcollab.com platform is a tool all of you can use to connect and work on projects! 1. Create a free account on membershipcollab.com. 2. From there you can post projects and list the roles needed to complete the project. 3. People can apply to work with you or you can search for people/skills to find collaborators. 4. If you're in a paid membership you can always bring these projects to the mentors for extra help. 5. I will create a post at end of each month where we can highlight everyone who completed a project that month. 6. As a community we can give some support to these projects :) It should be a good time! Let me know if you have any questions, and good luck to everyone working on projects in April :) **Let me know in the comments if you encounter any bugs**

(3) Fleetwood Mac - Landslide (Cover) w/ Sierra Eagleson - YouTube Hello everyone! Im curious if anyone can help me identify a sound from this video that i just cant stop thinking about. Its introduced in this song at about 2:45 and I believe it can be visually seen played at 2:46. My googling skills isn't good enough to find the answer myself.. I tried googling an Electric Stringed Instrument that is played on ones lap or table and has a whale like ambience of a sound.. Good thing i kno that you all are smarter than Google and I.. Thanks in advance.
