The Movies is out today - link in bio to stream now
It’s the first single from my upcoming EP “The Time Of Your Life”.
This song is about loving someone who you have to let go of. I’ve held onto it for a long time, so it feels good (and slightly terrifying) to finally let it go.
I worked with some truly incredible people to help bring these songs to life - The Movies has always been one of my favourites and now it’s yours.
All the love,
Max

It was a privilege to record and mix the latest record from @narotamhorn - No Mud, No Lotus 🪷
Pure enjoyment from start to finish, I loved leaning into the emotional depth of Naro’s playing and bringing out the best of an instrument that is so dear to me 🎹
Highly recommend a full listen through and watch out for more releases soon.
Big love Naro!
Recorded on the Yamaha grand at @gms_gold

Next up in the Nearfield Reflections hot seat is the amazing @joystacey_ . A fellow engineer at @gms_gold , we’ve been friends for many years and have collaborated on countless projects together. She’s a fantastic engineer, with a keen eye for detail in both mixing and recording approaches.
Here Joy gives an insight into some of her recording chains and how being creative with what you track through can really shape a song as well as how important it is for mastering to be a separate, dedicated process.

Been having a great time running Out the Box sessions for @createdefinerelease at @strongroom.studios
Met some wonderful artists who brought their tracks to mix in analogue. Exploring the API 1608 and outboard processing ❤️

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories.

Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
Keep track of Instagram updates discreetly while protecting your privacy and staying anonymous.
View profiles and photos anonymously with ease using the Private Profile Viewer.
