Hello Friends,

Nathan here. This week, we're exploring some exciting new projects and discussions. First, I share some insights into how I use pattern recognition to break down formulas in creative endeavors and how I incorporate this into my music and creative process. We'll dive into a fascinating study on the impact of music in treating depression. Then, we'll chat about the unique role percussion plays in media music and how it shapes our on-screen experiences. Lastly, we'll discuss crowdfunding success stories in the music industry and their significance for independent artists today.

Let’s get started!
