I feel like it's so easy to accidentally write the same song as someone else. Scrubbing music from the Internet is a cardinal sin

Used to be that you make an album, you upload it as a zip file to Megaupload, post it on a message board and people give you a track by track review

Absolutely love making music, writing songs, putting albums together with a title and artwork and viewing it as a cohesive whole. Absolutely hate the process of waiting it to come out, incessantly tweeting about it, trying to remember which hashtags to add, in the hopes that someone will listen

This thing is out TOMORROW and I'm getting impatient!

In fact apparently if you live in New Zealand it's already out on some streaming services

I feel like there's some sort of hypocrisy with how down people are on new Sonic games and how hot they are on new Pokemon games

Oh man what the fuck. RIP. Right before the release of Ninja Gaiden 4 as well

Sonic the Hedgehog has been added as a sidekick on GPS navigation app Waze. Users can replace their standard navigator's voice with Sonic's as they drive.

Probably Sonic Forces. I usually bail on games I don't like but Sonic Forces was right on the cusp of not liking, and it's also hella short. If it's not Sonic Forces, it's probably either Sonic CD or Sonic Colours. It's definitely a Sonic game lol

What's the worst game you finished/rolled credits on?

(games media folks, it can't be something you were assigned to review; this has to be something you subjected yourself to of your own free will)

PADLOCK WONDERLAND, my new album, is out in *two days*!

I'm excited to have it out there and I really enjoyed the process of making it. It feels like a bit of a shift in direction

Some people only hear the lyrics and don't really feel the music at all, and some people only hear the music and don't notice the lyrics at all. And that's annoying because I think I've got lots of songs with either great lyrics or great music but very few (none?) with both!

remember 15 years ago when people were blending two songs together in Audacity and changing their Twitter bio to "mash-up producer"
