Friends and fam. Some peeps have asked where they could hear my tunes and some say they don't know where to start because there's a lot so I curated a special "Best of" Spotify playlist with my own personal favs. Work and kid friendly! Some songs say explicit lyrics but that is a mistake they are instrumentals. Play this at your holiday parties for some background grooves.

Hey what's up fam. I recently got a Maschine MK3 and right away wanted to use it as a sampler and slice my samples to the pads within Ableton Live. So I learned how to do that and then decided I'd share the knowledge for producers out there who just want to get down to business. I hope this video helps. If you want to support please go to my Patreon http://www.patreon.com/djpuzzle 

You can download the Pocket Operator kit in Maschine format here:

Stay tuned as I will be sampling more things from my studio for you. 

Thanks for watching. Please subscribe and click notifications if you like this video and I'll publish more when I can. 

Super stoked to see my name in the credits for the French film Carbone. Funny thing about this industry (production music) I often times don't know where my tunes end up until I get my royalty statements. This recent BMI statement revealed a really cool placement (thanks to APM Music) in a feature film which is now on Netflix. 

My tune is playing in the Dolly nightclub scene. The Dj is playing it inside the club.

"Benoit Magimel and Gerard Depardieu star in French director Olivier Marchal’s latest thriller, which was inspired by the Carbon Connection scandal."

Super stoked to announce my iMPC Pro 2 kit "Low Key Blazers". It's available for all iOS producers in the Retronyms AudioCopy content store here (iOS device required http://retronyms.com/audiocopy/store/?dest=retronyms/com.retronyms.LowKeyBlazers) 

I had a LOT of fun producing this kit. First I compose a short song idea in my DAW and then I bounce the tracks down, edit them into samples and loops, and import them into the iMPC Pro 2 app on my iPad. This is where they really start to take form. 

Low Key Blazers is available for $4.99 through the AudioCopy app on iOS devices. AudioCopy is a free app for buying and transferring audio content such as loops and samples. 

Retronyms gave me a nice little write up in their blog here to promo the pack http://blog.retronyms.com/2018/09/dj-puzzle-x-impc-pro-packs.html

Stoked to have a tune in Christiane Amanpour Sex & Love Around The World. The song is called "Amsterdam" and it's in season 1 episode 3 "Beirut" on CNN. The crazy thing is one of the coolest placements I have is from another CNN show Parts Unknown episode Beirut. RIP Tony Bourdain. I'm very saddened by his sudden passing.
