"Even if you hate the music that you have to start playing in order to learn an instrument, that muscle memory, the technique you have in your fingers and in your movements will stay with you regardless of how far from that you want to go."
-Will Weisenfeld a.k.a. Baths

Electronic artist BATHS, also known as Will Weisenfeld, stops by the studio to show BETA how he puts together his compositions, breaking things down layer by layer and demonstrating how he performs live on an Akai MPD32 Software Control Surface. His wild hands put it all together live for a heartfelt performance of the beautiful and yearning Plea.

The acoustic song segment is taken from Season 4 of the BETA Records Music TV Series, directed by Ben Barnes produced by Chris Honetschlaeger

BETA TV - is a nationally syndicated (146 U.S. cities) weekly music centric TV series filmed and produced in the heart of Hollywood, showcasing at least 3 acoustic artist videos from newly signed and Indie bands in episode format. BETA emphasizes educational and pop culture segments and in-house produced music videos using the best vintage analog recording gear (Telefunken, Neve, Studer, RCA, Trident, etc) combined with the modern sounds of its instrument sponsors such as Taylor Acoustic Guitar, Neumann and Sennheiser Microphones, Ford Drums, Sabian Cymbals, Gibraltar Hardware, etc. Filming at the BETA Studios occurs Tue-Thur of every week.

  • Great stuff man. I was really hooked by those beats and your voice. Great job. I am going to start listening to more of your music. Thanks for the inspiration!

  • I can't fathom being able to do this, but Baths is the reason I am going to try my hardest to do it.

  • Very talented guy

  • id love all this mpd players switched to mpc... just an small graphical difference... but the workflow is neater in my opinion...

  • @tevinbeatty the mpd24 is pretty damn similar to the 32 with only a few feature differences, you could do it quite easily.

  • "and the higher the this up" That makes perfect sense.

  • @devotchka158697 Ableton Live's Beat Repeat.
