Kicked Off Of Soundcloud...

well now this is some bullshit right here.. for the third time i get this nasty email from soundcloud telling me i am improperly using copyright protected material.  for the record this remix was done with a store-bought $.99 acapella from amazon.com

if you have a company that sells an acapella version of a song and you are not allowed to use it to do a remix then wtf is going on here.  do they think people are buying acapellas to actually sit there and listen to them naked?

there is obviously some kind of misunderstanding here between the record companies, the soundcloud management and their customers.  the whole point of soundcloud is to let people post their stuff, NOT A PROMO MACHINE FOR THE BIG BUSINESSES THAT ALREADY DON'T NEED SOUNDCLOUD.

messin' with Adobe Illustrator CC2015

trying out the new version of illustrator.. using the curvature tool to create some shapes and then using the new shape-builder tool to combine/add/subtract shapes to make new ones. also using some of the new alignment features. pretty cool what you can do in a short amount of time. love the look of that program.
