Making a Scene Presents Gerry Casey's Interview with Robin Nutley of The RevenantFormed in 2023, Revenant deliver a powerhouse rock sound infused with a southern edge. Their debut EP, What A Time To Be Alive, dropped in May 2024 to critical acclaim and quickly established the band as one to watch. Onstage, they’ve been turning heads across the UK festival and club circuit—including a standout performance at Firevolt—captured in their live album What A Time To Be Live. Backseat Mafia praised it as “one of the best guitar releases of the year,” while Powerplay Magazine called Revenant “one of the most refreshing and exciting sounds around.” With accolades like these, it’s no surprise that these southern UK rockers are fast becoming a new fan favorite.

A deep dive into Cubase 14
Making a Scene Presents - Cubase 14: A Deep Dive into the Future of AI-Powered Music ProductionThe Long Journey of CubaseWhen we talk about modern digital recording, it’s hard not to mention Cubase. This software has been shaping the way music is created for over three decades. Steinberg, the company behind Cubase, first introduced it back in 1989 on the Atari computer. At that time, it wasn’t nearly as powerful as what we see today, but it did something revolutionary: it gave musicians a way to record and arrange MIDI on a computer.

The Spotify Alternative
Making a Scene Presents - Decentralized Streaming Platforms: The Spotify AlternativeWhen most people think of music streaming, Spotify is usually the first name that comes to mind. It’s the giant of the industry, with over half a billion users worldwide and more songs than anyone could listen to in a lifetime. For indie musicians, Spotify seems like the obvious place to be. You upload your tracks through a distributor, your music shows up next to the stars, and fans can find you with a search bar.

AI Metering and Loudness: How Smart Tools Are Changing the Way We Mix
Making a Scene - AI Metering and Loudness: How Smart Tools Are Changing the Way We MixIntroduction: Why Loudness Matters More Than You ThinkIf you’ve ever turned on your favorite playlist and noticed that one song blasts out of your speakers while another sounds much softer, you’ve experienced the problem of loudness. For decades, musicians, producers, and engineers have been caught up in what many people call the “loudness wars.” Everyone wanted their track to sound bigger, bolder, and more powerful than the one that came before it. But in the modern streaming world, that fight doesn’t really matter the way it used to. Platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and Tidal have built systems to normalize, or even out, the volume of every track that gets uploaded.
