Been working on the studio website! Added a bunch of nice photos by Vitor Sá, a releases section, an FAQ page, and new audio samples.

I'm available for both in studio and remote projects, so get in touch if you want your music to sound really good for not much money!

Update: made said virtual instrument with Decent Sampler so it'll be lightweight and theoretically useable in all DAWs! Wound up being more straightforward than the Logic sampler for what I'm trying to do.

Shout out to @decentsamples.com for making such a neat and easy to use sampler!
Currently working on making a virtual instrument from drum samples taken here at the studio.

I've done this sort of thing before in the past but this time it'll sound better (probably) because I know what I'm doing (somewhat)

Playing both guitar parts and live drums on a client album in addition to mixing it. Not for the faint of heart!

Update: Craigslist guy offering to trade an SM57 for my Telecaster has joined the chat
This week in trying to sell shit on marketplace:

- Guy who only sends messages at 3:30am and ends each in a prayer, “god bless you to the maximum”

- Guy who sent a video of a headrush pedal he wants to trade for my guitar, lives 2 hours away

- Guy who called me ma’am, said “ASAP”, then ghosted

Oh wait, *NO* Nut November?? Ok I completely misread the assignment. But I got almonds on sale and I refuse to feel ashamed!

Okay hard mode is hard. Got stomped on a random battle against some birds. Made it past Dorter though!
The definitive edition of an all timer. The complex and addictive gameplay has been better explained, the story and characters resonate more than ever — both due to the state of the world and because of the new voice acting.

Time to restart on the new tactician difficulty with Japanese voices!

“0% woke shit”

a black man with a physical disability leads an environmental terrorist cell trying to save the planet from mega-billionaires and you play as a cross dressing twink femdomed by two different women ending and the final boss against the gayest angel of all time

For years people made fun of big tech for inventing things that already exist and they responded with their magnum opus: inventing fascism. Incredible work

New post, please share. Thanks to everyone who’s bought my Bandcamp discography to help my friend with rent- we’ve raised about half already. I only need around 15 more sales at €6.30 to cover the rest. Any buys or shares help a lot. Thank you so much.

Saw Delta Sleep for the 5th (?) time last night and Between the Buried and Me for the first time. Incredible performances!

Hail the Sun was also there
