Show notes

Jennifer Lee, aka TOKiMONSTA is an incredibly talented LA-based producer, performer and DJ who has collaborated with Anderson.Paak, remixed Sia, Disclosure, and Beck, and founded the LA Beat Scene. In this episode, Jennifer tells us about a cheap synth she adores for bass, explains how she peppers her tracks with field recordings, ponders which historic synthesizer she’d steal off an electronic music pioneer, and all while skillfully bending our important Forever Studio rules.

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