Glitch.FM Interview with BT Posted!

About a month ago - we were really lucky to have been given an (highly impromptu!) opportunity to interview BT at one of his gigs in Houston. So impromptu - in fact - that it resulted in the interview being recorded on a pair of headphones in the back of a noisy club. After a long time spent cleaning it up with some audio-restoration, we present it to you here in it's at least passably listen-able glory.

Topics covered are his upcoming Album on Black Hole/Nettwerk recordings, and a TON of juicy details on his latest forays in music theory and software development! This interview is definitely one for the producers... Check it below!

Production Tips - Google Sample Search

Have you ever been stuck looking for the perfect kick or snare sample? Or maybe you're just looking for something random. If so here is a little trick for finding samples via Google.

?intitle:index.of? wav kick <-- Copy and Paste into Google

Search and see what comes up. Substituting "kick" for "insert sample name here" is the key. You can also switch aiff for wav if thats how you roll.
