August 19, 2025 · 1 h 8 min

Show notes

Stimming is an acclaimed music producer known for his inventive field recordings, esoteric hardware, and organic approach to electronic dance music. In this episode, Stimming surprises with left-field gear choices, from pen-controlled production workflows to budget synths with remarkable punch. Along the way, pick up tips on stereo recording, learn how he makes live electronic sets punch as hard as DJ mixes, and discover which sense he thinks is overlooked in the studio.

Season 7 of the My Forever Studio Podcast is supported by Audient, and the incredible new iD48 audio interface.
