"Simplicity with intention is not laziness" is exactly what I needed to hear. I hope to keep that in mind going forward. thanks for putting out videos like this!
I loved "This was supposed to be Everything" a lot, but I think "And Then, It Faded..." is WAY underrated. I was hoping that video would get the same traction. LOVE that one - I also love the new direction of the channel. Listening to your thoughts is something I look forward to. Every week I look forward to grabbing some tea, cozying up in the studio and listening to your insights. You've helped me get back on track through your emphasis on intention.
This simplicity is how I work too, and is why I’ve released about 5 hours of instrumental synth music since July I look at my music as a journal: I go with the flow of the day… and whatever comes out is a direct representation of how I’m feeling in this period of my life Cheers friend You are an inspiration to many of us 💜
Man said trust yourself and don’t look back! Legend and exactly the quality kind of sounds and sights I need to be absorbing 😁 💯👌🏾 02025 letsss gooooo!!!
Congrats for focusing on sharing your musicality. I had originally unsubscribed per the focus on new gear (which was overwhelming for me), despite loving your sense of artistry and photography. Very excited to be back and loving the format, focus and - side note - congrats on your focus on health 🎉
JAMuary helped me a lot to a) get things done since I need to get something out here on YT every day and by that b) learning more about my instruments, music and myself. Forcing yourself to do something instead of just thinking or talking about it is very helpful. Chalkenges like JAMuary or deadlines are a good methods to do so. But after „the creation“ I struggle to do all the work to bring it to streaming platforms… so it is just a bunch of ideas here on YT for now. Maybe that step/iteration is another deadline I need to setup. And again: thanks for your videos, insights, music and everything you do ❤
Super relatable, come sempre 😂 Da quando ho più tempo per me non suono più. Non riesco nemmeno a partire: troppe possibilità diverse e troppo tempo per pensarci=paralisi. Tocca sviluppare una routine e chiudere il 90% del gear nel closet. Ma ormai mi sembra di prendermi in giro da solo:allarga, shrinka, compra, vendi... Sarò al quinto "setup definitivo" e poi non si suona comunque mai. Sarò der gatto misà
Good thoughts. The best way I have found is when I get an idea I want to follow, I keep going, keep tracking, don’t put it down, don’t check the internet or the manual or ask “am I doing this the right way?” Because if I slow down, I lose the spark of the idea. And I think it’s true, you have to know your gear well enough that you don’t need to stop and look things up. You have to finish it fast, like a fire in the fireplace before it goes out.
it was david lynch who said you need 4 hrs uninterrupted to get 1 hour of good painting, and i think he was quoting one of his painter friends. i like these videos on the creative process

thanks for watching!
I agree that overthinking is a huge problem. Just explore and have fun!

Wise advise. A lot of people think so much about the process they do forget to follow the feel not necessarily the thought.
Solid advice. And very true. Thank you for sharing your insights and experience.

This was great thank you for sharing!
Great advice. I purchased one of your ep's and loved it. Some of my favorite pieces have been made with the most limited gear.
thanks for your support!
Thank you for this video! So relatable
Thanks for sharing the insights on your workflow. Looking like a smooth setup at the moment, great channel.

Gosh I hope the answer to this isn’t “cocaine” cause I can’t keep up anymore.
hahahaha
@ got scared when I didn’t see a video the last couple weeks. Glad you’re ok.
If I don't have access to footage or deadlines, nothing gets done. I've gotta have deadlines or I can't work.
that make sense 😊
