    I'll try and write a song for a week and it comes out alright. Guy writes a song in a car wash and it comes out great. Well done Guy

    Genre tip: Relatively calm music tends to be composed in car washes. If tension or suspense is what you're looking for, try the dentist's waiting room.

      That's the reason why I am self-taught and never wanted to take lessons. I learn way more from people like Guy who is having fun with it rather than serious music theorists who want to write microtonal Schoenberg-esque pieces that empty out concert halls.

    Look this Guy is a genius and he has just proven it. He has composed fantastic music for several of my films over the last 25 years and not only does he smash it every time, he is such fun to work because he just loves what he does and top of all of that he is just a lovely man.

    Hahaha! This is the funniest shit I've see in a while. Very motivating for me as well. If you can make a piece of music inside a car while going through a car wash, then there are no more excuses for why I can't make music at any given time. It's all about attitude.

    A built in sound card, sdd card plenty of ram. And lots of possessing power. You would have to have your mini keyboard.
    Cubase dongle's can be used in more than one machine to can't they could you have a pc version an a Mac on the same key.
