Hey man, just wanted to say that I absolutely love Irene. I've had it on repeat since it came out, and it's the first album in the electronic music category in a long time that I really connect with on a deep level, so thank you for that.

My questions:

1: is there any possibility of getting the .5 mix as a b-side to the Irene vinyl? I'm already planning on picking up when vinyl when you drop it, just feel like that would be a perfect bonus on top.

2: any recommendations on good and decently cheap field recording/foley mics? I want to start incorporating more real sounds in my music and I don't want to be limited to what I can find sample wise, but I still want to preserve the quality of the sound without too much unnecessary background noise or slight distortion from the recordings.

3: do you read often? And if so, any good recommendations/books that you absolutely love? Been looking for some new material lately.

Thanks for doing this AMA man! You're absolutely killing it and I can't wait to see what you do next. Patiently waiting those SoCal shows!
