Collaboration in music… the key is: find someone who shares similar taste, and goals as you. Speaking of collaboration… this is your reminder to go listen to “Butterfly” by Paimon Alipour & Chakra

The first single off our upcoming EP, coming soon…
Inspired by the grooves of Roy Ayers, I wanted to flex some of my musicianship skills that I’ve been improving on: piano, guitar and drums… since studying music theory extensively, my ability to craft robust chord progressions, key changes, melodies and soulful grooves has vastly improved.
Been on a bit of a creative/writer block, so I decided to get back to my roots of chopping samples, and getting out the box and just having fun… made this one that reminded me of some early 2000’s hip hop… what do yall think?
Definitely had to build up the courage to do it, but doing it once and going through the entire process gave me the confidence to do it myself from now on. I did it on the cheaper guitar first, doing my Les Paul today… practice makes perfect… saving a ton of money too
After yrs of taking my guitars to a luthier for setups, I finally did it myself & it was a success!
- changed the strings (only broke one in the process)
- cleaned exterior & pots
- polished frets & body
- adjusted neck relief, pickups & action
- fixed intonation
Looks new & plays beautifully now!
What do you like about the SD1 over the BD2?
I had a cheap delay pedal I hated so I removed it from the board haha… any recommendations on delay pedals you like?
Thank you! Any recommendations on upgrades to any of the pedals on my board that I can add to my shopping list that never stops growing? Haha
Finally dialed in a nice tone I like on the pedalboard for some funky rhythm guitar
Wah pedal (if it calls for it) -> compressor (for the chicken grease strumming) -> blues driver (light transparent drive) -> eq pedal (low cut) -> chorus (width) -> noise gate -> spring reverb
My DAWless setup:
- Arturia Keystep -> Behringer Model D for mono leads
- Nektar Impaxt GXP61 -> Roland JU-06a for synths & midiplus mini engine pro sound module for E.P. Keys
- NI Maschine+ for drums/samples
- Reverb pedal for fx
- Yamaha MG12 mixer
What’s your DAWless setup look like?
My Spotify this past week is very Compton… (similar to most weeks tbh lol)
Haha thank you, he’s my biggest critic so I gotta play the beats for him! My son gotta approve!
Wanted to try something different… what do yall think? 🔊 #producersky #musicsky #musiciansky
Gonna start posting my algorithmic daily Spotify playlists on here cuz they’re 🔥 and I wanna share the wealth #musicsky
open.spotify.com/playlist/37i...
My favorite artists cont’d… #musicsky
Here’s my favorite artists according to my lifetime Spotify history (shout out to stats fm) #musicsky
And my top 10 albums of the past 6 months on Spotify 🔥
Stats.fm got that real info tho, this is my top 10 artists of the past 6 months
This is how my Spotify Wrapped looked like this year… which sounds about right… whole lotta west coast R&B & Hip Hop
Hey Now might be my current favorite off GNX… the way the beat stays minimal the entire time, and then they bring in the Freestyle FM lead synth build for the bridge when he sees spaceships on Rosecrans, then the way Dody6 starts his verse and how the beat goes back to minimal is just… 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽
I hope he’s still dancing to it
