fishmonger is probably album of the year for me, so when @underscores put out the stems for it i knew i had to do something with them. here's a mashup remix featuring parts from kinko's field trip 2006, where did you fall, second hand embarassment, del mar county fair 2008, spoiled little brat, and there's a cover of the fish song on piano at the end. i had a lot of fun with this and if you're not familiar with the album i highly encourage you to go listen through it!

ORBITAL

art by @solquiet

2022 has been a very challenging year for me. I've been dealing with a repetitive strain injury in primarily my right arm since mid-april that has had a large impact on my ability to produce and play instruments. This past summer and fall I've been in a negative feedback loop of my physical and mental health essentially dragging each other down, and I've not treated my body the best I could have during this period. Thankfully, I'm starting to see light at the end of tunnel and lately my arm has been doing a lot better. However, there's still a lot for me to figure out, and I need to hold myself accountable to heal my body and my mind the best I know how to. I just want to say that I'm so grateful to everyone that listens to my music and that I don't take any of you for granted. I haven't been as active as I'd like the past year with this project, and to be honest I'm in a pretty weird spot right now trying to figure out my next steps. But I'll figure it out and when I do I can't wait to share it with you all. Much love 🖤

acapella by https://soundcloud.com/sobemakes
art by me - edited screencap from her music video for break in 2

sobe had this acapella up a while ago on either her main or side soundcloud, i don't remember. i thought it sounded dope and when i tried making something to it i noticed the form in spots was unconventional. i thought it would be a fun challenge to basically produce around the acapella and justify where the cadences lead instead of doing any reformatting/chopping

lyrics:

(my tears are made of glass)

i put it off for another day
in another way im feeling strange
im feeling all the growing pains
im going through a constant strain
penitent the time i waste
everything becomes a drain
for too long ive been drained

i wear inspiration upon my sleeve
for too long i can't find what's me
eventually i will take a knee
eventually i can be free
but what is lost cannot be found
i try to swim they find me drowned
face the mirror they see the clown
that's how it stacks, pound for pound 

 

what if it's all make believe 
the internet is fake to me
it draws my eyes it's what i see
it's nothing that i'd ever need
x4

it's really all the same mistakes
anything to fill the void while i escape
stay this way for much longer soon it's fate
it's time for all my actions to change, so i'll

turn it all off shut it all down sit in the dark yeah yeah
im finding peace im getting bored it's what i need yeah yeah 
no need to flex i know myself all in accord yeah yeah
im movin on what about you choose your own path yeah 

what if it's all make believe 
the internet is fake to me
it draws my eyes it's what i see
it's nothing that i'd ever need
x6


i put it off for another day
in another way im feeling strange
im feeling all the growing pains
im going through a constant strain
penitent the time i waste
everything becomes a drain
for too long ive been drained

i wear inspiration upon my sleeve
for too long i can't find what's me
eventually i will take a knee
eventually i can be free
but what is lost cannot be found
i try to swim they find me drowned
face the mirror they see the clown
that's how it stacks, pound for pound

It's been a minute, school has had me busy the past few months so I haven't been able to finish much of anything. Here's a thing inspired by https://soundcloud.com/prrrrrrr-records artists Scientific and Persian Empire.

This track would never have happened without the inspiration I got from Jon Hopkins, even though most of the track does not sound like his work.

Absolutely loved the original as soon as I heard it, and once I figured it out on piano it became really fun to play around with. https://soundcloud.com/quicklyquickly 's entire EP is inspiring and I suggest checking it out

swingtheory flip

Second time I've ever done juke/footwork and first time in ableton, I've been meaning to try it for a while. Definitely a cool genre that's worth exploring.

Trying to fit one more into 2018

I got the idea for this track starting at the beginning by beatboxing the drum pattern. Playing this stuff was hard on a two octave midi keyboard, so sorry for scrunched up chords voicings and such lol

Taking the Stairs

went and designed a pretty distorted saw sound, thought it sounded cool so I decided to make a track with it
