His official remix credits include the likes of Daft Punk, Rihanna, Madonna, Pharrell Williams, Ti\u00ebsto, Depeche Mode, and Calvin Harris\u2014just to name a few.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/playlist\/37i9dQZF1DZ06evO2XYRvq?si=97807eb3d2ef4c18\" width=\"100%\" height=\"80\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allow=\"encrypted-media\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the video above, Laidback Luke dropped by <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/ultrastation-studio-tour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our pop-up studio in Amsterdam<\/a> to check out <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/create\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Splice Create,<\/a> our new all-in-one DAW with the Splice catalog, instruments, and effects built in. Watch along as he builds a rave track from scratch, using his production expertise to draw on sounds from Splice and interface with the workstation using plain language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I think the way that it streamlines the way I produce and what I already know is fascinating,&#8221; he says on Create as he wraps up his session. &#8220;It takes something that I&#8217;m used to, but makes it easier.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many music tools today either make the song for you, or assume you already know how. Splice Create does neither of these things\u2014it helps you learn how to make the music you want.
