Wherever you are, you can have your music mixed at the same place as John, Paul, George, and Ringo. At legendary Abbey Road studios. Thanks for this bit of fun from our friends at Hypebot.

Leave a commentSometimes you can free your ideas up by simply creating something, anything, without expectation. You may be surprised that it isn’t as easy to silence your inner-editor as you might think. Dive in anyway and be open to serendipitous moments that may be surprisingly powerful. Create for creation’s sake. and put your editor-beast into their cage for awhile. You can unleash them later if you want.
Here is a great example of Gyda Vattysdottir, formerly of Múm, and drummer Julian Sartorius, creating music by the moment. (From Vincent Moon’s wonderful “nomadic record label”, petitesplanetes.)
