For me, sampling is a high art. Most people don't see it that way, but it's a beautiful thing. I wouldn't know anything about music if it wasn't for samples. There are a lot of people who really abused sampling and gave it a bad name, by just taking people's entire hit songs and rapping over them.

Experience the day the world went quiet.
This is the week thast Blood Hunt, Marvel's vampire-themed event really kicked in to full swing. Seven storyline tie-ins were released, and to be honest... they were all pretty much lackluster. Usually in these events, the first few weeks are pretty intense. But this crop of tie-ins just really didn't hit that well. Out of all them, the one that really did stand out but my pick of the week... but for a different reasion:
Comic Book of The Week:
The Avengers #14
MacKay / Villa
There's really noting in comics like when Captain America cries out "AVENGERS ASSEMBLE"! Indeed Avengers comics where they assemble the teams are one of my favorites. In Jed MacKay's Avengers #14, we get that. And even with the event as a whole not really hitting that excitement, having Steve Rogers back on the book and doing what he does best, inspiring heroes to rise up, is something to behold.
In the midst, of the vampire attack on New York, the current main roster of Avengers were the first to get hit, leaving them knocked out of the main batter. So Steve Rogers puts out an Avengers Priority Alert reaching out to any and every available heroe on the roster…

I still have the first M1 chip version of the iPad Pro. Its still a great tablet for work and enteratinment so i haven't really thought about upgrading over the years. That started to change when Apple released iPad versions of Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro. It would be pretty dope to cut video and create music on the go with Apple-native apps. The one i'm looking at would run me about $1,500 so i'm kinda in a holding pattern wondering at this point in time, if it's the right time to pull the trigger.
Presenting the latest innovation from Apple: the all-new iPad Pro. Boasting the world's most cutting-edge display, the Ultra Retina XDR, it sets a new standard in visual excellence. Powered by the groundbreaking M4 chip, it signifies a leap forward in processing capabilities, positioning itself as an AI powerhouse.
