Rusko Producer Masterclass Part 1

Normally I don't show vids of other DAW's besides Ableton currently. But this video is a must if you're a fan of Rusko. It's quite revealing in showing how he works his magic using Sony Acid as he DAW of choice. I think this is also great that it show's it doesn't matter what DAW or tools you use as much as how much time and care you put into your creations. The great thing too of course is much of what he shows can easily be done in any DAW. Hope you guys enjoy!
