I think the most fun sounds were the weird words in Spanish\u2014it was just so funny to record them, and sometimes I would just burst into laughter and had to stop the recording. Even though it was\u00a0challenging\u00a0coming up with all the sounds, it was definitely\u00a0a\u00a0fun process.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I still get many producers contacting me about the pack, wanting to collaborate after using it.

I remember there were some sounds I made for the pack out of regular objects\u2014I made percussion one-shots from cherries, celery, cutting boards, and fire matches. I then processed each sound, adding distortion, reverb, and compression so they transformed into something sonically pleasing and usable.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;A couple days ago, a friend was telling me he used the casta\u00f1uelas from my pack. I love whenever people show me how they&#8217;ve used those sounds, especially in ways where the samples take their own space and form in the song. It&#8217;s exciting to hear how people bring them into their own perspective.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stay tuned for more<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>And there you have it!
