Hey there! I'm Sam! I've been creating music for 15 years now, starting with the humble Mega Drive and moving up to full production in the years since. I've also been sim racing since I was little, and create liveries for myself and the teams I race for.
Here's some of my music!
Here's some of my music!
TOMORROW!
We're throwing it back 25 years for the SROL 2000 German Grand Prix! Blasting through the forests at Hockenheim for 45 laps.
I'll be driving the #5 Jordan in a full 22 car field. Hope to see you all there!

ditching adobe is really hard when every alternative is either Flunkly™️ which is *almost* feature complete except for that one thing you do in Photoshop every single day or G.R.O.N.K., a FOSS app with the worst fucking UX you have ever seen in your life and no support for JPEGs for ethical reasons

too many people sleep on the iRacing AI, it's so fun to race against (and not worry about netcoding someone to Mars when you're doing stupid dives you'd never do online)

I loaded up my custom 2024 Super Formula AI and forgot I gave Juju Noda 0% relative skill
(in iRacing terms this means the floor of the skill range you set for the AI, not an absolute 0%)

inspired by @melonadem.com, I figured I'd give my own spin on an emulation front-end mockup lmao
I like my tasteful minimalism, even though this could absolutely be perfected more (and I'd actually USE a front-end like this.)

Finally smashed some braincells together and got some hosting sorted out to have an actual blog on amphobius.ie now.
I'll post some things on there from time to time that are a bit too long winded for threads on here. Next up is to get my portfolio going again, but that shouldn't take too long. :)

I'm going to move today's stream to tomorrow as I am, frankly, exhausted and I don't have much energy after work chewing up my calves
I had to massage out a knot in my leg during my shift, so I get the feeling doing a full distance F1 race today is maybe not the best idea lol

Feeling comfortable enough to post another one of these for the coming week. Light chatting stream on Tuesday and some more historic AMS2 racing on Thursday, with some other potential things should they go my way.
Also I'm going to get on a train and be bad at playing Yu-Gi-Oh again

Streaming in about 10 minutes. Gonna figure it out on the fly since I already pulled Digital over the weekend 😅
Looking to do some of the 2005 GT content that dropped AMS2 recently because PMR is hot doo-doo after a little chat

Just one last thing and I'll have everything I need for the full cosplay! Just over a month away until I can get some proper photos taken now 😅
