major laptop upgrade, and with it comes a lot of configuring, transferring, deleting of bloatware and other troubleshooting. so i've been a bit quiet over the past week as a result... one thing i can do on this one that i couldn't do on the old one is run openvino music generation in Audacity, which is often laughably terrible sounding... this is an example, smooth jazz slowed down by 25% then run through oxide tape emulator>plasma>equinox>ozone 11 (i own most of the izotope catalogue)

love the dark, sad, experimental and hazy side of things, hypnotic loops and damaged sounds. massive horror geek. not without a sense of humour. partner in crime with Shelley and Loren.

if you're questioning why or how i'm able to upload on a frequent basis, simply put - i have A LOT of time on my hands at this point in my existence, a wealth of music/sounds to draw upon, and a decent collection of software to make things (e.g. both the synth and fx arturia vst collections). i'm not just auto-generating ai pieces ad nauseum, at the same time i have nothing against using ai in the creative process, but not as an outright replacement for creation. i really think the witch hunt over it all is a bit ridiculous, fueled by the greed pig corporate media companies mostly. 

one thing i've learned about making at least a little bit of money from streaming my music beyond measley penny scraps, i have to upload frequently and i've been experimenting with reuploading/reposting my tracks for better play counts (for now), if even it only results in cutting costs.
