NickelPUNK - Find Her (feat. Ryn)

From Bandcamp:

"The hard hitting music of https://soundcloud.com/auxcide creates the perfect atmosphere for Ryn's haunting vocals to shine.  https://soundcloud.com/sprymusic brings it together with a touch of digital magic. The remix by https://soundcloud.com/itsmisterangles stands on its own and provides a stunningly fresh response to the themes of Last Chance".

A huge thank you to everyone who put their best into this project!  I am so excited and proud of the results.  Much love to all!

Huge thanks to Erik "Viking Guitar" Peabody for putting together this stellar compilation, Pete for being a great partner, and to Brandon "President" Hoodie for, as always, recording my vocals.

Phonetic Hero (ft. Ryn) - Descent

I'm proud of the work that I did with my friends, so I'm leaving this track up. That being said I'm not proud of MAGFest. They ask too much of their volunteers and refuse to promote high level volunteers to paid positions. I was banned when I left after being overworked without compensation. MAGFest claims I did harm on the fest because we did not leave behind my documentation (spreadsheets and lists) I created for personal use as unpaid Head of the Music Department. They also banned four of my fellow volunteers because they thought we were 'working in a coordinated manner'.

Lyrics:
Hangin' with my fellow nerds
Friends from all over the world
Cosplay all over the place
Rockin' out in the Jamspace

I can hear Colossus roar
Drunks are passed out on the floor
Free-play cabinet arcade
Do I nap or hear bands play?

PRECHORUS
Hey are you that guy
That I met online?
Its you! Hell yeah!
Just got tackle-hugged
I can't get enough
This rules! Yeah!

CHORUS
Its MAGFest Time!
We'll be dancin' in our socks
And we'll down a couple shots
Think the neighbors called the cops

Its MAGFest Time!
Rockin to some new Chiptunes
Beer pong tourney in our room
Just kick back and have a few

Its MAGFest Time!
Singing dorky off-key songs
Everybody sings along
Some dick pulled the fire alarm

Its MAGFest Time!
Yeah, the party never stops
Know this weekends gonna rock!
Whoa-oh

Its MAGFest Time!
Hope it never ends
Its MAGFest Time!
Hope it never ends

Squares are jammin' in the hall
Late night Chinese take-out call
Sexy dance to The OneUps
Gotta go refill my cup

Go catch DJ Cutman's set
Grab some people that you met
Find a party on your floor
Then hit half a dozen more

PRECHORUS
CHORUS

Elevator Party!
Elevator Party!
Elevator Party!
Elevator Party!

(Super Saiyan Bitching)
(Vomiting)
(Cursing)

CHORUS

(Applause)
(Collosus Roar)
(Adorable Pouting)

It's MAGFest Time

From the bandcamp:

On working with Ryn on his B-side: "This track is the second song I've written off of an upcoming concept album about...SPACE. SURPRISE. Ryn was gracious enough to lend her voice to the ship's computer in this song, and I can't thank her enough. I've always wanted to use some sort of vocals on a track, and her narration really completes the track. I can't wait to work with her on the rest of the album!"

Many thanks to Russellian (https://russellian.bandcamp.com/) for asking me to work on this track and to the folks over at Weekly Treats for putting it out!

Recorded as a part of an audition for an online project.  I enjoyed it enough to want to share!

Deltarune - Don't Forget with Cory Johnson & Jer Roque

My first Dwelling of Duels entry was a collaboration with the amazing Cory Johson and Jer Roque. This is the "Alternate Entry" for the competition. It was 'Brevity Month', so there was plenty of time during recording for things to go a little sideways.

I'm sorry. I'm not sorry.

Many thanks to my talented engineer hubby, Brandon Hood, for always making me sound my best, even when I'm being the worst.
