I've been exploring the mass of presets that come with Syntronik 2 this week, and I thought I'd share a few of my favourites with you.

In my last post I talked about why I use electronic drums in my studio. Today I'm going to give you an insight into my process for recording and mixing electronic drums, and how I make them sound like

There have been some huge advances in electronic drums over the past 10 years, they've certainly come a long way since the infamous Roland TR-808 drum machine of the 80's. You may be surprised to know

I'm not known for my ability to play the drums. In fact, I'd wager most people don't know that I play the drums more often than I pick up the guitar. I find it incredibly cathartic but also quite meditative

I reckon there should be a category for decluttering! Walking doesn’t cut it. A kid-free day allowed us to restore our garage to a pre pandemic state. You can actually drive a car in there now! Stage two

With my ute in getting a brand new set of tyres, I got a good portion of my steps up doing a few errands around town. Despite the heat I managed to travel from one side of the CBD to the other and pick

Went for a nice family walk in the morning, or should I say Scwalk, as we like to call it when the kiddos ride their scooters and we walk. Despite getting out early it was already heating up. 20degC overnight

I thought I'd give you all a preview of a new song I'm working on and while I'm at it take a bit of a deep dive into my song writing / recording process. I'll start off by saying I need to sing this one

I really need to be moving more than I have been. It’s been unbearably hot but I could have gotten up earlier and gone for a walk around the block in the morning. My goal for tomorrow is to hit 10k steps.

Bloody hard to be active when it’s 40 deg C outside 🥵 looking like it’ll be another stinker tomorrow. Bring on the cool change! This report was published via Actifit app (Android | iOS). Check out the

There’s one thing guaranteed to get my steps up and that’s coming home from holidays. Having a 3yo means packing is as much about what not to take as it is what to take. Honestly it looks like we’re moving

Aside from being a time to enjoy seeing and spending time with family, for me the week between Christmas and New Year is also a time to reflect on the year that’s coming to a close, and evaluate what’s

Boxing Day is typically a sedentary sort of day for me. Time to start winding down and look back at what worked and what didn’t over the course of the year. This report was published via Actifit app (Android
