20 years later, I must say that having an iPod today… is metal 🤘

I made a full-length video which will be up on the channel tonight. If you want to know how it feels like to own a twenty-year old iPod that’s still kicking today, do drop by the YT channel. But to say that it’s an amazing experience is an understatement.

This is the iPod Mini (Generation 2), a 6GB model that is the predecessor to the Nano. It allows you to listen to high-fidelity lossless audio, and you can definitely do everything with it offline. No notifs, no ads, no algorithm. Just pure music enjoyment. I’m genuinely happy with it.

Would you still want to own an iPod today? ✨

Daily productivity drivers in the home office. Which one’s your pick? Been getting a lot of questions about the Keychron M4. Previously discussed it on on my home office YT video, but thinking of doing a short form on it too.

It's almost the weekend! Here are some of my favorite outtakes from the studio. I just finished tracking layers upon layers of guitar tracks, and I assure you it didn't look as immaculate. Today, I'll be working mostly outside, but I always yearn to come home to this space. It's undeniably real that your workspace is where your creativity is limitless, and where inspiration is abundant, and within arms’ reach. I'm excited to share with you more about the design process very soon! Have a great weekend ahead!

LIFE UPDATE:

Today, we are officially monetized followed by fulfilling the first 1,000 Subscribers and 4,000 watch hours within 10 months on YouTube! I am joyously thankful to the friends, strangers, and viewers who continuously supported the launch of the channel, the videos, and the digital products as well! This year, after a very long process of an internal tug-o-war, we also kick-started and launched ark.curate, which is a small start-up showcasing some of my personalized and customized digital products and assets. As of today, it is growing in traffic and sales and have already made quite a significant amount of revenue.

As a token of my gratitude, I am giving away this FREE high-resolution wallpaper which you can download both for your phone, and your computer.

As a small creator with a small business, I thank you for the support and I'm looking forward to more milestones in this creative endeavor. Cheers!
