A favourite to borrow from the library as a child. And: what a life. I did not know he played guitar.

"Rancho Electro is a series where a guest artist is invited to Ojai, California to collaborate on a new musical composition with Mikael Jorgensen. Utilizing traditional and electronic instruments, each group heads into the mountains above Ojai to film and record the performance of this new composition." I loved this first piece from Graph Rabbit. So nice to see interesting, melodic, electronic music performed live.

Good set of notes on using AWS Lambda.

Leafcutter John's notes on piezos and preamps

Really nice – and – lush – sounding virtual analogue, heavily pased on the JX8P. Those strings, that chorus!

Lovely live performance from Brian and Kelli: keyboard, modular, grid-sequencers, ukulele, voice. Feels intimate.

This is great: iZotope not just teaching about mixing and mastering, but providing interactive exercises. My ears are useless, some days.

I always love seeing debug screens from game developers – what they call things, how they conceptually model the work they're doing visually, and what metrics they track. Also, a reminder of the budgets for doing everything a modern game does. This post about Uncharted 4 is full of that sort of thing. Show everything!

A truly lovely Music Easel performance. I love how coherent an instrument it is, and this is a cracking piece of playing.

Saved mainly for its neat description of what you'd want in an assembly diagram of a toplayer.

"I am here for you freelancers where every day is a new war; I am here for you day-jobbers where it’s all the same old battle and then family at night and you’re too tired to work on the story and all you want to do is watch TV. I see you and I want you to know that you’re okay. That we all fight this battle in different ways, and I know you’re doing the best you can. Living is hard. Creating is harder. I am here for you on the weeks you write zero words and the weeks you only write 500 and the weeks it all flows out of you like salt water and you’ve written 10,000. I see you when you look back over it and wonder if any of it is any damn good at all. Keep it. It’s good. Keep going. You can edit when you are done." There is no expiration date. This was good.
