    21:18 Pretty sure the band Delost is referring to is The Warning, and the album is Keep Me Fed, which was being worked on when this interview was uploaded. The album was released 28 June 2024. Based on comments I've read on social media about Keep Me Fed, it's very rare for anyone to say the album's songs can match the live versions, which sound amazing. Their touring sound man is a wizard at his craft.

    I have uninstalled my SPHERE DLX and put it away. It worked before the upgrade on my Mac OS Sequoia. And you say it's not registered and it worked anyway. I had in my Apollo twin console insert box, Sphere DLX had a DEMO expired in it. I needed a real person to guide me.

    Awesome interview once again!had been searching for more podcasts with Tyler.Never did I think I would be jamming a Falling In Reverse album from Start to end on repeat but that's exactly what I've been doing with the new album.Tyler creates 'moments' essentially with every song and makes each part as good as it could possibly be.He's really inspired me to treat my own productions in the same way.
