Of the many lessons 2020 taught us, one that particularly resonates is that we should cherish each day, as we never know what’s around the bend. It’s also been a time to reflect on what really matters to us and what truly makes us happy.
Having a proper hobby is something we all realized we needed last year. Many people turned to music for comfort during quarantine, even picking up instruments and production programs during the ample downtime. If music is still on your mind, consider this your sign to pursue it in 2021: grab this deal on The Complete Ableton Live 10 Music Production Bundle for 97% off.
The highly-rated bundle includes 220 lessons designed by Certified Ableton Instructor J. Allen for a proper education on one of the industry’s most important tools. Broken down into six parts, the classes address everything from the bare basics to performance-prepping techniques. All courses are rated 4.4 stars or higher.
Start by learning the fundamentals of audio recording and gain an understanding of Ableton Live's signal flow. Move onto the 5-star-rated recording and warping session, dedicated to teaching the best recording techniques. By part three, you’ll be ready to start producing music on Ableton Live! The thorough course on producing and editing boasts 4.7 stars, and past students say they find themselves "referencing these lectures over and over again."
The second half of the training delves into the Ableton Live instruments. Get synthesis tips and tricks, learn how to get the most out of your samples, plus take in tons of production tips. If this is all in an effort to become a DJ, you’ll find the course titled Audio & MIDI Effects particularly helpful.
As you wrap up the course load, Allen enlists the expertise of colleague James Patrick for Part Six: DJ Techniques & Controllers. One reviewer calls it a "great overview of live performance techniques using Ableton and controllers.”

Starbucks’ decision to restrict its restrooms to paying customers has flushed out a wider problem: a patchwork of restroom use policies that varies by state and city. Starbucks announced last week a new code of conduct that says people need to make a purchase if they want to hang out or use the restroom. The coffee chain's policy change for bathroom privileges has left Americans confused and divided over who gets to go and when. The American Restroom Association, a public toilet advocacy group, was among the critics. Rules about restroom access in restaurants vary by state, city and county. The National Retail Federation says private businesses have a right to limit restroom use.
President Donald Trump is talking up a joint venture investing up to $500 billion for infrastructure tied to artificial intelligence by a new partnership formed by OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank. The new entity, Stargate, will start building out data centers and the electricity generation needed for the further development of the fast-evolving AI in Texas, according to the White House. The initial investment is expected to be $100 billion and could reach five times that sum. While Trump has seized on similar announcements to show that his presidency is boosting the economy, there were already expectations of a massive buildout of data centers and electricity plants needed for the development of AI.
