  • Ashley Gorley Commemorates 80th No. 1 by Donating Royalties Creatives Support NetworkTen-time ASCAP Songwriter of the Year Ashley Gorley looks at No. 1’s a little differently these days as he notches his record-extending 80th No. 1 with this week’s “I Am Not Okay,” recorded and co-written by Jelly Roll along with Tape Room writers Taylor Phillips and Casey Brown. To commemorate the milestone, Gorley wanted to look beyond the celebrations that traditionally accompany a No. 1 chart hit and use the moment to support the launch of a program designed for the creative community by The Onsite Foundation: Creatives Support Network, providing free mentorship, education, resources and mental wellness support specifically designed for members of the songwriting community.“A song about struggling to get out of bed in the morning is No. 1 and that really speaks to where we are in the world,” Gorley reflects. “It was important for us to take this moment to say ‘you’re not the only one,’ and to support a creative network with programming that is tailored to songwriters at any stage of their journey.”  Songwriter-Focused Intensives are a big part of the program, two-day immersive individual or group coaching and therapy sessions explicitly curated for creatives. Additionally, the program includes mentorship and social impact initiatives as well as online curriculum and conversation resources complimentary to the creative community thanks to Gorley’s gift in the form of 80 grants for 80 individuals as well as program infrastructure support. “This song in particular, along with the Jelly Roll Era, is creating a movement and timely conversation regarding the need to equip creatives with necessary tools to optimize their personal and professional pursuits,” adds Onsite’s Miles Adcox. “I’ve been at the intersection of Music and Mental Wellness for the better part of my career and have experienced firsthand the challenges and opportunities facing today’s creatives. Music is medicine, and the comfort, relief, support, and overall impact it provides globally to humanity is immeasurable. Our storytellers are a national treasure we should pour into and protect at all costs. We’re grateful to Ashley, Jelly Roll, and the Tape Room writers for starting this conversation in the songwriting community and for lending their expertise and resources.” Learn more HERE.

  • Warner Chappell Celebrates Latin: The Sounds of Nabález and Delfina DibWarner Chappell Celebrates Latin: The Sounds of Nabález and Delfina DibIn honor of Hispanic Heritage month, and to celebrate new innovative sync songwriting projects, Warner Chappell Music (WCM) held a private Latin Showcase at their Los Angeles office. Featuring performances from Latin GRAMMY-nominees producer-songwriter Nabález and singer-songwriter-artist Delfina Dib, the gathering joined artists and industry professionals in highlighting original Latin music for television, film, and media.Columbian songwriter-producer-artist Nabález has credits across multiple genres and languages, including collaborations on “Indeciso” by Reik, J. Balvin, and Lalao Ebratt, and “Salir Con Vida” by Morat and Feid. Nabález has earned 11 overall Latin GRAMMY Award nominations (including Best New Artist and Songwriter of the Year) and is nominated for the 2024 Latin GRAMMY Award for Best Regional Mexican Song for his work on “Canción Para Olvidarte” by Majo Aguilar. Current projects include music with Carín León, Ha*Ash, RBD, Lola Índigo, and Mario Bautista. Signing with WCM towards the end of 2019, Nabález says that he is grateful for the timing of it all and getting to build a team during lockdown to work on a lot of music that otherwise might not have happened. Of WCM Colombia, he says, “I really wanted to work with them. They're everywhere [and] the people are awesome. I didn't even hesitate when they offered to sign with them.” The four years since his signing have included multiple co-writes and more diversity in Nabález’s writing. “You write as a songwriter with a more specific spectrum. You don't write so broadly. You try to write to help the producer [on] a track, record vocals, or whatever [it] requires. The track has to speak for itself in terms of the sound.” Having started as a performer with an album of Mexican music, Nabález has always written for other artists as well. “I see myself as a songwriter who sometimes sings, rather than a singer who sometimes writes music for other people,” he says. With incredibly diverse material, Nabález writes everything from Latin and pop to country, and he loves to combine unexpected sounds to keep things fresh and color outside of the genre lines.Having participated in songwriting camps in Miami, Argentinian-born singer-songwriter-rapper Delfina Dib’s performance was her first in the United States. With an intense raw live performance and fabulous vocal ability, Dib’s passionate energy is palpable—on and off the stage. Following her EPs Lotto (2018) and Mio (2019), 2023’s debut album Directo al Cora saw performances in Mexico and Argentina. In her first year signed to WCM, she has already secured two placements with video game EAFC75. Says Dib, “It’s very cool for me to synchronize songs in my first year. [It is] not always like this, so I’m very blessed.” Singing since the age of two, and writing her first music at age 13, Dib is really enjoying writing for other artists and the fresh perspective and new skills it is helping her build. “It's very nice to be a songwriter because it's another universe,” she says. “You have to do the music that you love. […],” adds Dib. “It’s very magical for me. I respect [and] love the music.” With various performance styles—including Rap/Hip-Hop, R&B/Soul, EDM, Pop, and regional Colombian—Dib has Spotify listeners in Argentina, Mexico, Columbia, Chile, Spain, Uruguay, Peru, Ecuador, Guatemala, as well as the United States.“It’s a fascinating moment to hear Latin genres fusing with hip-hop, country, urban, and pop,” says WCM VP of Sync Latin, Mary Nuñez. “Through sync opportunities, we're able to help listeners discover these new songs through films, TV shows, video games, and sports. This showcase was yet another medium for our partners in the sync and music community here in LA to discover our Colombian talent, and we hope Nabález and Delfina's careers continue to grow from it."The post Warner Chappell Celebrates Latin: The Sounds of Nabález and Delfina Dib first appeared on Music Connection Magazine.

  • A Tiny Chemistry LabWhile advances in modern technology have allowed average people access to tremendous computing power as well as novel tools like 3D printers and laser cutters for a bare minimum cost, around here we tend to overlook some of the areas that have taken advantage of these trends as well. Specifically in the area of chemistry, the accessibility of these things have opened up a wide range of possibilities for those immersed in this world, and [Marb’s Lab] shows us how to build a glucose-detection lab in an incredibly small form factor.
    The key to the build is a set of three laser-cut acrylic sheets, which when sandwiched together provide a path for the fluid to flow as well as a chamber that will be monitored by electronic optical sensors. The fluid is pumped through the circuit by a custom-built syringe pump driven by a linear actuator, and when the chamber is filled the reaction can begin. In this case, if the fluid contains glucose it will turn blue, which is detected by the microcontroller’s sensors. The color value is then displayed on a small screen mounted to the PCB, allowing the experimenter to take quick readings.
    Chemistry labs like this aren’t limited to one specific reaction, though. The acrylic plates are straightforward to laser cut, so other forms can be made quickly. [Marb’s Lab] also made the syringe pump a standalone system, so it can be quickly moved or duplicated for use in other experiments as well. If you want to take your chemistry lab to the extreme, you can even build your own mass spectrometer.

    While advances in modern technology have allowed average people access to tremendous computing power as well as novel tools like 3D printers and laser cutters for a bare minimum cost, around here w…

  • Combination Safety Glasses and Measurement ToolWhile rulers and tape measures are ubiquitous, they always seem to disappear when you need them. We know you’d never forget your safety glasses (safety first!), so what if they were also a measuring tool?
    Starting by snapping pieces from a folding yardstick, [Simone Giertz] and [Laura Kampf] worked out a rough prototype before letting [Giertz] complete the project in brass. Some initial issues with the weight of the frames were alleviated by switching to a lighter weight plate material and using thinner frames and weight-saving holes near the ear pieces.
    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so we’ll let somebody else decide whether or not these will be the newest fashion craze. But it’s hard to argue with the timelessness of brass unless you have a copper allergy. We could definitely see a less expensive plastic version catching on in makerspaces for the PPE bin.
    Want some other cool wearable gear? How about [Giertz]’s grocery bag hat, an evening gown with servo-driven flowers, or a shirt that reflects heat out the atmospheric window?
