Seriously, though, you have to check it out. Clearly, no one noticed it because you’re probably all coming here for deals and not looking at anything else, but this is a really cool section and NI employees have noticed it, redditors have noticed, Google has noticed. The only people that didn’t not…

Too many people whose songs I don’t know and a lot of people I disagree with.  But whether you agree or disagree with the songwriting choices, sometimes their choices of representative songs didn’t make the case.

They listed OutKast as a songwriter but their 5 best don’t include “Roses” or “Hey Ya”?…

And don’t forget Ben Folds.

Great add. I’m 100 percent with you. But I have to acknowledge, it didn’t hit me until you brought it up. I tended to think about writers like Billy Joel and Randy Newman from an even earlier generation. Folds is superb. He has the right combination of knowing how to write a g…Read More

I’d put the probability of a Summer of Sound sale at at least 75%.

I’d put the probability of Komplete being included at 0%.

The last time Komplete had a release outside of September/October was in 2013 and I recall that Komplete was not part of that sale.

There’s no way they are going to announce a half off sale one or two months after…Read More

Congrats on the hub.

And I’m glad the episode is over… for now? I might actually buy a Kontakt instrument again!

I wonder if we’ll be seeing the 50% off on Komplete anymore, now that they’re clearly on a yearly schedule now as per the new naming convention.
