i'm upset i missed this

anyway here's a chicken named rambo i met on set. he tried to eat our cheetos

fourteen hour days were a lot easier in my 20s, but i'm definitely doing much better work during those hours in my 30s. i don't know how to feel about this, mostly because the only thing i know how to feel right now is "feet hurt"

i put on some karlheinz stockhausen while i'm rearranging my studio, and apparently my cat is as into weird sound shit as i am because she only ever climbs up on my desk like this when i put on musique concrète. i need to plug things in but she refuses to move

it was fun to record, so i hope it's fun to listen to

i hope everyone likes this so sam has to keep it going

dudes on dating apps must have been ruining the environment so bad the city had to bring in ringers

disco fuckin rules and i will never see eye to eye with anyone who denies the power of syncopated hihats and ridiculously plentiful harmonies over four on the floor, even when i'm not day drunk

that sounds like the perfect way to enter literally any room

one for (i think?) an air conditioner, with the lines "i'll call today"
"you'll call now"
"i'll call now"
which my brain has occasionally used to shame me into overcoming my ADD whenever i remember them as i'm about to procrastinate doing something

nicknames for nicknames rule, and it's how i got my username

my favorite part of owning a loopstation is taking 10 minute breaks in the middle of working on other stuff to reset my brain by doing silly little sketches

lol i leave the internet part out and just say "sound designer" and if they ask what that means, i tell them i write music and make sound effects, which nobody has ever shown the slightest interest in knowing more about

#tunatrip2025 day 8: home

i've driven 3600 miles this week, which is easily more than i've driven in the past two years. i think i might stay away from cars for a bit

week 16: Fatboy Slim - You've Come A Long Way Baby

came for the expertly manipulated samples and filter sweeps, stayed for the interestingly varied song structures and time stretches

favorite track: The Rockafeller Skank (duh)

#tunatrip2025, the return: 807 miles down, 933 remaining

i have driven for 14 hours today. i am a driving machine. my blood is oil; cibo matto, the chats, and alan partridge are my fuel

i stayed in a suuuuuper cool hotel last night

king in yellow rules

week 15: Lexi Jones - Xandri (thanks @itsonlygentle.bsky.social!)

a very vocal-forward mix, which is good because the vocals are gorgeous. i also love a good twangy guitar and discordant piano

favorite track: Let me go

#tunatrip2025 day 2: 1341 miles down, 406 to go

i love missouri's purple trees so much
