Sunday Loop — A Few Links Worth Your Time
Why Sunday Loop exists
The week moves fast. Between work, sessions, and everything else, the good reads get lost in the noise.
Every Sunday evening I share some links — things I found worth reading during the week. Logic Pro, sound design, sampling, the occasional curveball. No algorithms, no filler. Just five things I’d genuinely recommend to a friend.
Grab a tea or a coffee. It won’t take long.
