Basic synth advice I wish I had received years ago.
P.S., notice the beaut in the background 🙂

Mindful Eating by Jan Chozen Bays
I’m not exaggerating when I say this book has transformed my eating habits and experiences.
Version 1.0.0 
In Cold Blood by Truman Capote
A true novel written in 1965. The first of its kind, I believe. It’s the story of the mass murder in 1959 of the Clutter family. The film Capote was one of my favorites last year, which is why I decided to read the book.
Version 1.0.0 
Poor Things (2023)
A neo-expressionist film, I learned this week. So cool that, in our risk-averse Hollywood world right now, this got made. Beautiful film packed with imagery, depth, and creativity. The acting is as good as it gets. The cinematography and set design were breathtaking. AND THE SCORE, PEOPLE! Jerskin Fendrix’s first film score too! He lost at the oscars to (the better-connected and has-made-more-people-rich) Ludwig Göransson. What a shame. (Not that Göransson’s score for Oppenheimer was bad – Fendrix’s was just that good.)
How to Remember Everything You Read by Justin Sung
No clickbait here. This is exactly what this video is about. And it’s dynamite. I’ve bookmarked it and have already revisited it.
Music Exec Accidentally Explains How Useless Record Labels Are by Rick Beato
I actually saw the original interview Rick is responding to here. It’s from a music marketing agency called Burstimo, posted a couple years ago. I had the same thoughts as Rick at the time and it’s why I’ve never pursued a record deal since (or ever will).
Trying To Be Original Is Killing Your Creativity by Joshua Heath Scott
Outstanding advice for artists from the guy who started JHS pedals. This guy’s channel is fantastic and I’ll be sharing more of his videos in the future.
Winterreise by Jerskin Fendrix
Avant-garde, avant-pop. This is the guy who did the score for the film, Poor Things.
