    It's not easy but it's definitely an accomplishment.

    I just recently managed to achieve the goal of turning what I love into a way of pay. However it's not always the exact thing that you love that first becomes profitable, more of around the general area. But that's part of the journey.

    That's fascinating! In what process are you involved in? The actual "chopping" or processing? Or selling, I'm not familiar at all with the terminology of a profession involving firewood haha.

Here's a practice skratch session: https://soundcloud.com/lordjhouse/skratch-sesh

    Peace.
    Awesome stuff, man. I'd recommend machine simply because I'm a native instruments fanboy. If you're ever in LA come by the studio and I'll let you try it out :P

    Thanks man. Yeah, I'm NI fan too, I have a Traktor Z2 mixer that's pretty dope and sounds amazing. Maschine interfaces with it really well, plus the work flow is really solid, both making me lean towards Maschine. How do you like Maschine Studio? Been seriously thinking about copping that, but it's a little spendy.

    May hit you up when I'm back in LA. I'm originally from, gasp, the OC, and often return to skate and see homiez, family, traffic...

    Dope studio BTW.

    It's pretty damn fun. The only thing is after some time I found myself using it less. Well, any type of midi controler outside the keyboard. It's unfortunate, I blame music for mainly sticking to 4 to the floor lol (excuses). I've been getting super into guitar and I feel like it's super important for me to master it.

    o no not the OC, jk. I go there once or twice a week and hit up 10th Planet orange. There's an open mat every sunday at 12pm.

    "do not accept terms such as "face cord", "stove cord", "truckload" or "trunkful"" lol! Sounds like an interesting business.
    I always wanted to be to that guy like in "Dirty Jobs" that travels around experiencing and getting different perspectives from all the various jobs that are out there.

    I work at a power utility's control center. It's a sedentary job, but very challenging.

    Rotating shifts makes training difficult, but an understanding family and good training friends/partners/coaches make it happen.

    I have a career, working as an Recreation Operations Coordinator at the University of California, Berkeley. Not, a side hustle, but that's what i do when I'm not training or teaching.

    That's incredibly inspiring. Have you put thought into (if possible) to have a standup desk? There's a huge rise in the awareness of all the adverse effects on health of sitting for an entire work day (every workday pretty much).
