It's all about the Analog this week: Supposedly McDSP has the answer to Analog tape Saturation, warmth in the DAW.... with a $4000 piece of hardware casually on the side. We also look at the Ferrous Landscape, a cute lil' string resonator hat looks to bring analog to your drones. Lastly in the Round Robin, we're lamenting on whether it's worth pitching to Spotify playlists any longer.

Stability AI has a new generation model centred around sound generation. Apparently trained on open sourced and non copyrighted samples. Is this a new road for machine learning? How does it play into the role of the independent musician?

Our community has been rife with discussion concerning Social bios, it's a quagmire of difference and methodology. In the Round Robin we hash it out.

======================

Here are our top tips for making a bio: Be authentic

Consider who you’re trying to reach and tailor the bio to that audience

Have strong imagery

Tailor bio for medium (modular for shorter bios and long bios)

Can use chat gpt for bio ideas (give it bios you like in the prompt)

Don’t take it too seriously (have fun)

'Beyond Polarities' has been out for a week and the man himself returns to the show! It's a perfect opportunity to sit down and talk to Eonlake about his new release and that is exactly what we're doing!

Full engines go, we've got a peek into project files and we're discussing mixing with intent and how to gain clarity in the mix. We've got questions from ourselves, as well as questions from our community on Discord.

Also in the news, we're taking a look at the new SY-1 release from Behringer. Another knockoff.... What do we make of it?

This week, we're discussing how to create album artwork on any budget. Album art is often the first impression a listener gets when checking out new music, so today we cover multiple ways to create it using apps, Photoshop, AI, commissions, and photos.

In a world of AI generated content it's never been easier to get art fast. But artwork generation is more consistently being put behind a paywall and increasingly AI artwork is being called out for being so. So what are the alternatives for the independent musician on a budget? This week we discuss ways to get decent art done on the back of real human input and for a price.

Our discord has one again been alive with the sound of Spotify's Sinister Situation as MLC has gone for a lawsuit, we'll be unpacking the deets.

in the wake of Superbooth24 we're taking a look at some of the synths and equipment that caught our eye and allowing our G.A.S to right wild - even if it's only hypothetically. We'll also be discussing our music creations and where we draw the lines between production for our authentic selves, and production for pleasing the crowds.

Another level of sound demos this week as we're checking out the latest soft synth from MNTRA Instruments 'Vespera' an electro-acoustic synthesiser that combines physical resynthesis with tube modular oscillations. We're taking you through the UI and having a look at how it sounds while discussing what we'd use it for.

Also, Spotify continues to take all our money as they up their subscription and lumping in royalties with audiobooks.
