Before i sign off i want to remind you to get this sound you hear in the video or a sound you heard on the radio.

Although the book is not published yet i am giving away the first 100 copies for free. Just leave your name and email in the comments section and leave a short comment but. with the title," free book" and i will send you a free book to your email when it is published.
