Riffs

Love - Set//Adrift

These guys seriously don’t stop cooking. Our beloved “Texas Sadcore” juggernauts are back with another banger. Engineered once again by the talented Dave Alcan, this punchy mix is sure to tug on the heartstrings if you want to be in your feels this Valentine’s Day.

Seriously, give these guys a listen if you’re a fan of melodic hardcore. They don’t disappoint. They also have dope merch, which you can pick up here.

Code

Fellow programming nerds — cancel those Medium subscriptions, because theres a new sheriff in town. Daily.dev is the ultimate hub for articles related to web development and software engineering. It is completely free forever according to their landing page, however the content is so good that I decided to subscribe to the Plus membership, which is only 5.99/mo.

If you’re a developer or programming enthusiast, I highly recommend. You can join at my invite link!

Youtube

If you were looking for more Riffs. Code. Content, look no further — I’m venturing into Youtube.

Since starting Riffs. Code. Coffee. , I’ve noticed that it’s difficult to fit everything I want to cover into a newsletter that can be read over a cup of joe. In the spirit of providing you as much value as I can, I’m shooting weekly videos that are directly in line with this community’s mission.

My goal with this channel is to expand on the mission of this newsletter, which is to empower you as a creative to stay in your genius zone & grow your brand with the help of modern technology.

I am currently posting once per week on Thursdays.

Click the link, smash that subscribe button, and hit that notification bell 😆

That’s all for this week’s pull request. Let’s go ahead and merge this to main. I hope you have a great Valentine’s Day and an amazing weekend!

Spread the Love <3
