Stone Update #012 Opening the Process
“Stone Updates” is my ongoing, unfiltered journal as I learn electronic music from absolute scratch. Expect messy experiments, rookie mistakes, tiny wins, and lots of self-deprecating humor as I figure out Ableton one chaotic button press at a time.
My Side Quest in Music, Creativity, and Permission to Be a Rookie Again
Learn More About Adam StoneUpdate:
I recorded a YouTube video walking through the behind the scenes DAW work inside Ableton Live for my newest track, Open Up The Sky. No polish. No pretending. Just the real session and the real thinking behind it.
I wanted to be visible about what I am doing and why I am doing it. This whole project is about learning in public, showing the process, and being honest about where I am at as a beginner. The wins, the confusion, the moments where things finally click, and the parts that still feel messy.
The video is not about teaching. It is about documenting. Capturing where my head is at while I am building tracks, making decisions, and figuring things out one session at a time.
More reps. More transparency. More creating.
