I've done this a few times. Never for a full month, but for weeks at a time. Remember to be kind to yourself. Take walks, keep up your exercise schedule and eat well. When I've done this in the past, I've really focused on ma

I'm a person who can't sustain my mental health if I'm not building things. Quite literally. And I know there are plenty of others like me who face the idea of a typical 9-5 life with crushing existential dread. I appreciate

While true, there still remains the question of how inaccurate this particular article is. Would definitely like to know if more accidents are caused by reduced yellow light times. And whether local police support the guy.

This seems to be an answer to the Microbrute / Minibrute market of small, cheap(er) mono synths for bass parts. But to me it just doesn't stack up. Sure, it's got the onboard sequencer, which you're going to need somewhe
