About

What we want at wax&wires (other than to abuse alliteration): The goal is to make this a place where you can get updates on all things music. We’ll break things down into two categories to keep it simple: WAX: Wax is what records used to be made out of (before vinyl), so here you’ll find updates on recorded music. Band drama. Music industry news. Record label woes. New music you need to hear. WIRES: Music tech news. Tools and techniques to help you make better music. Gear reviews, user submitted song reviews, tips and tricks to make solid tracks and get your music out there. Please email me with any questions or ideas. I’d love some feedback. tim@waxandwires.com Inspiring and equipping YOU to MAKE BETTER MUSIC.
