Is being remembered after you pass important to you? If so, what kind of imprint/legacy would you leave in the world?

I'm curious how many of you guys are software engineers.

Just uploaded a new video breaking down why social media isn’t the make-or-break factor for a successful music career. In this one, I dive into: • How I’ve achieved 70M streams without obsessing over Instagram or TikTok • Why ads and playlisting can be way more effective than endless posting • The bigger question: Why are you making music in the first place? 🤔 If you’ve ever felt burnt out trying to “play the game,” this one’s for you. Let me know your thoughts after watching - what you think about my take? ⬇️

Seeing as the last time we did this we only had about 100 members, let's get an update! What DAW are you mainly using these days and what about it has captured your heart? (Last time Bitwig was the big winner...) Vote below and leave a comment below briefly explaining why you use that DAW.

I am very influenced by Basic Channel / Maurizio / Rhythm & Sound, the defunct Swedish label SVEK, and deep and hypnotic grooves in general. Here are three tracks, one a WIP and two maybe done(?), that I’m proud of. In:Out https://on.soundcloud.com/fka4zkGR2KJRyJXc9 This track came together by resampling delay lines. I learned to simplify my signal flow and pay special attention to the unique grooves using delays. Then, I continued my resampling approach but sampling two different delay lines, offsetting the sample starts, and sending them back to two delays. I want this track to be some of my best work, so I’m waiting to finish it. Shush https://on.soundcloud.com/CsXt8xYE8WWgmZQC6 A deep, dark track, with organic console style dub feedback on the chords. I realized the importance of distance and space with the sounds, rather my usual maximal sound design. Snug Shadow https://on.soundcloud.com/7oUoj7RwTGzKyvNB9 My first attempt at resampling everything. I learned to embrace sampling and re-arranging to find grooves. The process was sampling multiple passes of Shaperbox. I love the groove but feel it needs something more.
