Tossin’ and turnin’, hard to sleep these days… if you woke up at 4:44 am every night for a week... what track would you listen to make you fall back asleep and why?

Planetary Assault Systems - Railer (Further Exploration)

This song always reminds me of home.. Kansas :') , I'm a bit of a sucker for nostalgia and my roots in digging for electronic music. This one definitely hits some calming emotional nerves for me and I know it would bring me right back to where I need to be from wherever I'm coming from.

Like a chef in a kitchen I imagine a producer in their studio, having all their little pleasures around in order to cook up some hot tunes. Please give the Nina readers a taste of what your studio looks like in full detail.

Desk, Chair. Trippy lava lamp. Two Mackie Speakers, laptop stand, My Macbook pro, Ableton Push 2, My two hands and ten fingers. Sometimes I use my brain and wiggle my toes.

With that producer brain of yours, what advice would you give to a newbie producer that you wish you would have known yourself at the beginning stages?

Don't be afraid to ask someone you look up to for production tips! Ableton live IS goated. You really can find just about anything you want to learn on Youtube for free, it's insane and I now call it Youtube University.

What inspirations do you have that have nothing to do with music?

Kansas, the midwest, the flint hills, floating in water, sitting on top of a big hill or a mountain. Cooking a nice dinner for my friends. Smoking zaza. Squishmellows. The color green. Badlands. Rocks. Clouds making weird shapes. Long walks through the city. Long walks in the country. Getting lost. Finding myself again.
