I feel global political oppression or global wars usually produce great music but Macklemore might be the peak.

Nothing against him, some of his songs are good, but I expected real rage inducing stuff with everything going on. Or is this just the state of music as a whole?

    Then you might be surprised to learn that there is no band, just me! I played and sang all the parts except for drums, those I made with Hydrogen. I did all of that using mostly open-source tools, all in my living room!

      Yeah, I was wondering about the drums part in the credits for each song, because it seemed odd to have different names for each drum set. Is it just a different setup and you give it a name?

        It’s a different virtual drumkit, and I swapped some pieces here and there when I felt like one or the other sounded better for a specific song. The names were set by the creator of the drumkit, and I didn’t really know how to credit them so I might have gone overboard with it lol
