 Hey guys, welcome back to The Nova Show, it's your host, International Nova and in today's episode we'll have another freedom partner spotlight and some cool music news, so let's get to it. Pop star Kesha and her lawsuit against Sony Records and longtime producer Dr. Luke has turned pretty ugly. Kesha's mom recently went on a Twitter rant calling out Dr. Luke and calling Kesha's obligations to Sony slavering. Now through the tweets Kesha's mom also stated that she's worried that due to the delay in the case Kesha's career might be over before the case is settled. Now in other news, tight dollar sign has just released a brand new single called LA which features Kendrick Lamar, Brandy and James Fontleroy. Now the song is the newest single off its new album, the free TCLP, due out in November 13th. You can also stream the song by clicking the link down below, let me know what you guys think. In other news, Facebook has just released a brand new music feature. Now the feature is called Music Stories and works like this, any song that is posted on Facebook through a link or through the share on Facebook button within Spotify or Apple Music will appear in news feeds in 30 second clips. Now the only downfall of the feature is that it's only compatible at the moment with iOS users. Now through the feature if fans find the music interesting enough you can actually add the song to your streaming services within Facebook. Now in the past, Facebook's last music feature which actually tracked your sign pod activity was not received too well, so let's see how this one turns out. Hey guys so we're back and as you can see we're back in my home studio, now today's freedom partner Spotlight goes to a member by the name of Rick Getem, so let's go ahead and check him out. So Rick I want to say you got some good production, some really cool beats and a couple of different styles. I really do like where you're going with your production and you got some really really great potential. Now what I will say is just like I've said in a couple episodes you want to make sure that as a producer you have your music everywhere. Now looking at your page I couldn't find your social media and that is one thing I do recommend is have as much social media links as possible on your profile. As a producer use the social media tools available such as Vverb Nation, SoundClick, SoundCloud and Get Your Music Heard. Now as far as the production itself there are a few things I would recommend and as always with me it starts with the EQ. You want to make sure you take the time to EQ all of your instruments, all of your samples and get them to sound as clean as possible. As a producer you want to make sure that all of your tracks sound nice, clean and polished. So take some time out, focus on your instruments, you want to make sure your snares are nice and tight and with the kicks you want to make sure it sounds heavy not too much where it swallows your whole track but nice, crisp and tight as well. Now another trick that I would recommend is adding a vocal exciter to your instruments. Now by adding a vocal exciter to your instruments this actually adds life to your mix as well as giving your track a bounce. Now aside from these two things you also want to work on adding compression as well as adding reverb to give your tracks space and presence in the mix. Now as a side note don't be afraid to pan some of your instruments, everything doesn't always have to be in the middle. Now as with everything in music mastering is very important and lucky for you guys as beat partners or potential beat partners we provide mastering for free.
