As of late I have IMMERSED myself into dubstep (and other remixes and such), with all my findings from YouTube. I didn't just get into it, I've enjoyed the stuff for the better part of a year or so. But the past few days I've become almost addicted. I do nothing but sit on YouTube searching for dubstep remixes of theme songs to shows and video games of my beloved childhood; Transformers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, Legend of Zelda, Mario, Donkey Kong, Pokemon, Street Fighter, Thundercats, and many, many more. Me only working part-time with not much else to do has done nothing but to incubate this habit for me. Luckily, I don't think that I am in too deep as to where I become an elitist and do nothing but eat, sleep, breathe dubstep, especially since I've never become that way with anything else in my life, outside of a few days and never outside of my home. But in my "travels" through, what I am right now creating and copywriting the term, the Dubsterverse, I have discovered a device for sound mixing called a launch pad. And no its not Launchpad McQuack from DuckTales and Darkwing Duck. It looks like a prop for a sci-fi keyboard, and seems absolutely awesome! The Novation Launchpad for use with Ableton Live software seems really cool, and I have no experience in producing electronic music but this thing is tempting me to venture into that field.
