Share an interesting experience you had while creating your latest track.
The beat for the next song I’m releasing, was made while on vacation alongside a pool this last summer. At the time I was burned out, but for some reason this beat came into my head and I think I finished it within 30 minutes. Which I’ve never done in the past.
