This week we took a trip into the colorful world of Alexandra Júpiter, more than just a tattoo artist, she is a master of many different mediums.  Alexandra welcomed us with a contagious smile, at an unusual place for a tattoo artist to practice the profession; inside a combined hair salon and tattoo studio.

Eurodance is not dead!  Born at the tailend of the 80s, Eurodance broke through and invaded 90s electronic music with its punchy beats taking over the DJ booths and dance floors of European clubs and beyond.  A ‘four on the floor’ thumping kick, anywhere between 90 and 150 BPM, often featuring a female soulful vocal...

It’s hybrid heaven in this week’s 'FRMS From Scratch' tutorial, as our granular/FM monster synth samples the delights of everyone’s favorite ‘blowy-pipe, air-piano thingy’; the melodica!

Today Lucas is taking on the 1983 electro track ‘I.O.U’ by the British group ‘Freeez’. Created by John Rocca and founded in London at the tail e...

Rock your body for today's musical class with Lucas and Bodyrox! Although the track today is by the artist Bodyrox, it was the enigmatic producer D.
