I had such an amazing time at Ableton Loop last November... I literally cried when it was over!! So many likeminded people, all making music, sharing their hopes, dreams, processes, ideas - it was incredibly inspiring and made me feel a little bit less alone in this weird thing that I’m doing.

scratching: a DJ and turntablist technique used to produce percussive or rhythmic sounds and sound effects by moving a vinyl record back and forth on a turntable
