Xtr@Ba$eHitZ has been great to work with, quick and to the point, his music was enjoyable to master as well, it was a niche that was right up my alley. I was particularly impressed with “Tried my best” when I was mastering it, because I had heard a down-tempo song before using that sample, but Xtr@Ba$eHitZ managed to flip it into a much more rappable dilla-esque type of beat.

My journey as an artist has come a long way and I think Stu can say the same for himself. Collaborating with him is always a fresh feeling because you truly get that soulful vibe and that’s what I appreciate the most about it. Its an honor to have met you and to have made the tracks we made. Keep pushing man because you know ill be doing the same.

Hey man, just wanted to say that I found your site a couple of days ago while looking for some mic comparisons for the AT2020. I’m a rookie at this studio stuff, and barely beginning (still buying the hardware part, lol), but man… I gave up searching on google when I discovered your site, ’cause honestly, I haven’t found a place with more resources and info into this stuff than your site. You rock man. Your site rocks. Please, for the sake of newbs like me just starting out, keep up the hard wor…

Stu and I started working with eachother about 2 months ago, I found him out through comments on tracks, and I heard the amazing motivational sound he had, it hit my sweet spot just right. We then came in contact through mail, and i found out not only was his music inspiring but he was down right just a chill dude to work with. We have currently collaborated on a track, and are in the process of another. The first track went very smoothly, he gave me feedback, and stayed in contact. I advise to …

Stu & I had been following each other on soundcloud for a lil while, then one day he hit me up with a sample he thought would fit well with my style & upon hearing it, my mind was pulled 10 different ways with ideas. after about 2 days of messing around with it i sent him what i had, unsure of how he’d feel about the off-kilter flow i put on it. he said he loved it & made me feel a bit more secure about my experimentation so we dropped it the next day & overall id say it was received pretty well…

Working with [Xtr@Ba$eHitZ](Stu)was a great experience for me. Our collab in my opinion is one of my personal favorite collabs I have done. Most collabs I have done with other producers have been a bit unorganized with delay in the process. Working with [Xtr@Ba$eHitZ](Stu)was a care free experience with what we were given. I believe we produced a sublime collab that sounds really dope for a non face to face collab. I wish nothing but the best for [Xtr@Ba$eHitZ](Stu)in the future with his mus…

Home Studio Basics provided an excellent recommendation for my audio setup. It was the first website I found to provide exactly what I needed. More importantly, I contacted Stu and he went out of his way to make sure I purchased the best setup specific for my needs. Excellent experience! I highly recommend Stu and Home Studio Basics.

Hey Stu,

Was just getting back to let you know that I held off on buying a pair of cans until I was able to afford the Sennheiser HD600s. Best audio purchase IMO,

Thanks for writing all those great articles on your site wouldn’t have thought of saving for the HD600s without them.

Regards,

Kyle
