Big respect to this new EP by Lioness. I love when artists are able to give something for free, and its a great way to generate a lot of buzz for a very little bit of cash. Anyway, I'm still pretty tied up with school and all that business so I'll leave you with the music video

Studio Compression at ATAM Productions: Liquid Mix vs Duende Native Review

Drumcell Interivew
Electronic music producer Drumcell discusses some of his techniques in this interview video. It starts off showing off the future place for a crazy warehouse party then cuts right to the rocking deep techno at the party. I really love the videos they have being projected!
