Today, we’re celebrating the incredible creativity of Jacob!

Jacob typically works on one song per session, and recently, we’ve been exploring themed compositions inspired by the elements—earth, fire, wind, and water. Over the past month, he’s brought fresh ideas and impressive skills in Ableton to each track, with "fire" emerging as his favorite. His passion and growth as a music producer continue to shine in every session!
