Trash_Audio: One Year of Mayhem!

Trash_Audio is one year old!

I'd like to steal an entire post and say thank you to every single one of you who has come to our blog in our first year. Justin and I started out Trash_Audio to showcase how our friends work and the sort of environment this work is performed. It has connected many artists which otherwise would never be seen together and connected those within the same field that have yet to meet. We never expected such a response from the world and are thankful for all the positive feedback and criticism (which we mark as spam or send viruses to). In our everyday lives we say, 'we should make a post about that' almost every time we hang out. This phrase is usually uttered when we come across something meaningful to us which is has been increasing since the inception of our blog. I've learned about the dynamics of inspiration, the importance of aesthetics, the relevance of environment and how they are mandatory while working on any art form. I hope you've been able to take away something meaningful opposed to the increasingly common gear porn.

We've had over one hundred thousand unique visitors from hundreds of countries and from every single continent... except Antarctica! It has grown beyond our expectations and these numbers become a reality when people start spotting you randomly on the street, inviting you to events, or using the blog as a reference in normal conversation. Either way, Justin and I don't see a penny from this blog and while we're trying to work on that - it has no effect on the consistency of Trash_Audio.

As always I suggest writing to our e-mail on the right if you have any questions, want to talk about anything on our blog or simply want to say 'Hello'. Justin and I answer every single one. Thank you all again and have a killer weekend. I'll leave you with some iconic shots from past interviews.

Thank you both so much for the continued news, updates, inspiration, randomness, and gearporn. Trash_audio has been a mainstay in my toolbar for almost a year now and I love it!

All the best and Happy Birthday,
