@LiamKillen - These episodes where you bring in other artists are so f*****ng awesome!! As a musician, hearing people talk about their process and approach is so great.... Like @EZBOT's live streams.

Absolutely love these episodes where you bring in people to explain their setups, your best vids imo, always an instant click. Weirdly enough, these are kinda hard to find! If you want to find out what musicians really play out with, it’s either the KZreadrs who have tons of videos and whose setup you know forward and back already, or it’s little one offs that lack a detailed walk through. Cool stuff, man.

Absolutely - I have a video in the works using some older Elektron gear as well and it works just as well as the new stuff - depending on how you like to use it.

Great interview! Claire is an awesome artist and her workflow is really great. I find interesting when she mention the investment of 10years+ working with hardware and it wasn’t a lot considering what you need to learn. Totally agree on that take!

I really enjoyed the format of this video.

I also really enjoy the Thomann videos for this reason.
