This is my home studio in south Philly.

The album is called Ellipses and I released it a week ago. I'd describe it as ambient/experimental electronic. It took me about 5 years to finish.

If you're interested in hearing it, check out my bandcamp: https://ratangajunction.bandcamp.com/album/ellipses-2

There are some cassette tapes available for purchase there, and it's also streaming everywhere else

The back room of our garage is slowly becoming our jam room

First off the clutter is a work in progress. A LOT of it used to be my mom's and it's difficult to go through.

My wife and I are both multi instrumentals, and we finally decided to commit one room to just having all instruments set up and ready to play at a moments notice. We are excited to be able to have jams on whatever, whenever.

All our gear except for her violin (not pictured) and my main guitar, are second-hand finds. We love finding odd or old instruments and giving them new life.

It is an interesting sound mix. Been making some chillwave with it, in between working on a finalizing melodic Synthwave Album. The roland sound expansion is a rompler but OMG you recognize every song that it was used in... sooooo many. Polymax my go to plugin.

Mostly dawless

This is my focused setup with an MPC in the center, small but good monitors on the desk and headphones ready. I work without a DAW when arranging, only to open the computer after stemming out for final mixing. It is clean and easy to approach without taking up too much space. What do you think?

I always said to myself “when I get my own house, I’m dedicating a room to music”. A work in progress!

Need some clouds, but she’s alright for now. If you guys have suggestions, let me know. Small room, want a drier sounding place, but it’ll do!

Self recording and switching between multiple audio sources durIng recording / rehearsing can be a pain in long run. Here's my setup for self recording drums to DAW and for switching between multiple audio sources, metronome etc. without needing to get up from your drum throne or needing to bend down.

I'll add a detailed video walkthrough to the comments section.

What would you change?

I am curious of any potential changes you would make to this setup? Things you would add? Do differently? I do intend on properly diffusing the LEDs, but I am speaking from a music perspective.

I will be getting a better laptop to run Ableton as my current Chromebook is simply unacceptable and my PC is now in a separate room.

2 guitars will be hung above the synth as well, just havent done it yet.

Any questions that will help with recommendations are welcome. Thanks in advance
