One of my big resolutions for 2015 was to finish off more songs and publish them online - rather than them sitting unfinished on hard drives here there and everywhere.
So I got my ass into gear and launched a site for my music and got my first album up on bandcamp as well as putting up some albums for free download on Soundcloud.

I'm sad that Rubin did an advert, thats like a God selling you washing powder.

So I'm thinking about going down the modular route.
Much advice welcome

toying with the idea of picking up a TE OP-1..

Autoflavour - do it, you won't regret it!
Yes it is pricey (get one 2nd hand from eBay) but it's a great hands-on experimental instrument that can make some polished stuff.
I buy and sell a lot of toys but the OP-1 is something I can see me always keeping.
The OP-1 also has a GREAT community http://operator-1.com/
When the PO's were announced and available I ordered all 3 (caught up in the hype!) then when TE announced it would be months before I saw my order I cancelled. Then on Wednesday I thought f*ck it and grabbed a PO-12 from Colette in Paris.
It's MUCH smaller than I ever thought it would be. Had a little play during lunch at work and it seems like it's going to be great fun and will pair up well with the OP-1 and Volca Sample :)
- yeah, am tempted.. almost pulled the trigger on a Juno 106 today.. but then chickened out and called it offautoflavour
- I get the sense the OP-1 will be at least more in the direction of what i do..autoflavour
- Have a Juno 106 in my studio, it's an animal of a synth. THe best thing about is I got it for free from my bro!Bilious_Fog
- Good thing too as I've had to replace nearly all the voice chips in it so far! :)Bilious_Fog

Even though I sold my MG I still rate the company as a whole. Great quality gear with the best support!

Have any of you had any experience with Dubspot? The NY campus has been around, while the LA campus relatively new. I'm thinking about enrolling in their Ableton Live Producer Certificate Program. At 4670.75 USD (w/ their SXSW discount), i figure I'd ask around. Thanks in advance!

If you've got the cash to chuck at it then give it a try.
If that's a lot of money to you then just learn via tutorials online!

Thanks microkorg ! ^
I've watched a lot of 'em, (thats actually how i found Dubspot).
Gotta admit i pick up on stuff better in meat space, and, for once in my life, i can just afford it (the installment plan, that is). I think I'm gonna do it!
