STAY AWAY FROM MY COMPOUND!! I have more I am NOT telling you about.


Oh, and on the 'less is more' kick:

Phrases like, "Fast is slow, slow is smooth, smooth is fast"; "Less is more"; and "Ruling a country is like cooking a small fish" - They're great Buddhist and Taoist dichotomies but they only really offer a contrasting framework for building music on (along with anything else you can think to apply it towards). Furthermore, both Eric J and Keysora, from what I've heard of their music, aren't necessarily in disagreement with one another. While Eric J uses a clean mix which could be construed as simple, the elements themselves have a fairly tangible interaction which is somewhat complex. Keysora's central melody lines are inherently simple but elegant and draw a great deal of their beauty from the elements which surround them.

    Under heaven all can see beauty as beauty only because there is ugliness.
    All can know good as good only because there is evil.

    Therefore having and not having arise together.
    Difficult and easy complement each other.
    Long and short contrast each other:
    High and low rest upon each other;
    Voice and sound harmonize each other;
    Front and back follow one another.

    Therefore the sage goes about doing nothing, teaching no-talking.
    The ten thousand things rise and fall without cease,
    Creating, yet not.
    Working, yet not taking credit.
    Work is done, then forgotten.
    Therefore it lasts forever.

In not trying to read too much into these sayings, you can read everything into these sayings.


No amount of intellectual masturbation is going to make you understand seemingly paradoxical statements from Buddhist teachers. Even the clearest of explanations needs experiential knowledge to be complete.
You need to do drugs or meditate a lot.

1. Layering for kicks and especially basslines. Might seem obvious but I overlooked doing this for years. One of the producers I most look up to, Protoculture, wrote a great post about this HERE
2. M/S AKA Mid-Side compression
3. Record an instrument into a new audio track by setting the input of an audio track as the output of another. Hit record and your track gets laid down into this new track as it gets played. Realzing this recently I was finally able to get around the "CPU Overload" error in Cubase when using my Virus Ti and can finally enjoy using it again.

I have the first version and can vouch for it. I'm sure the second revision is even better. You'll get a ton of questions answered and more going through this thing. I'd say 95% of what I have learned has come from books and practice. The whole watch youtube tutorial thing just doesn't do it for me. The surface isn't even scratched with those things.


Nice one Stephen thanks for the info

alright a little different one here.

tubes on the bass for some grit. Off topic, this one video i seen over a year ago with deadmau5 and Dj aero, they were carrying around this Little Red Box in their mobile studio. i believe it was a small tube amp of some sort, they didnt discuss it. They just said it was their secret weapon not exactly quoted as such. I have been trying to figure out the model and such, maybe someone knows about the device here. maybe deadmau5 can reply. details are vague because its been a long time since ive seen it.

probably just some guitar fx thing

The most obvious answer is usually not so obvious, but it usually is the most obvious answer.
