I wanted to initiate a #ThursdayGear type of post for a while. I should initiate #MisterBrokenGear instead. I wanted to get my chops back on the alto sax today. I guess I should reconsider.

Last day to vote for the #SoundoleChillOut2025 Audience Choice Award. I wonder how disputed the first place is.

Enfin vu il y a un mois. Complètement conquis. Oeuvre majeure, comme le reste du travail de Satoshi Kon. Je dois m'attaquer à Paprika maintenant. (petit faible pour Millenium Actress ici et son romantisme "doux-amer")

Do yourself a favor and listen to this today.

I have been re-watching pre-2005 Miyazaki's movies lately. They had a strong impact on me back then. It was years since I last saw them. Now that I have been educated to music and more emotionally aware of its strength and use, I can understand how Hisaishi's scores had a great part in this impact.

Hello. Here is my new cover and entry for #SoundoleChillOut2025. This is the Sanctuary in the Glades track from the superb game Ori & the Will of the Wisps and it's gorgeous OST by @garethcoker.bsky.social. www.youtube.com/watch?v=An3g...

Audience voting is up for this year @soundole.bsky.social's chill out competition. I am in there but choose wisely, there are so many great entries again.

Just under 24 hours remain in #SoundoleChillOut2025! Best of luck to anyone finishing up their entries! You can check out the entries that have come in so far in the competition playlist: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

C'est trop bien. Il faut aller voir le groupe jouer et il faut venir participer à la jam. Ça joue bien et il y a une bonne ambiance. Et puis le bar est cool et bien placé.

Returning to monke for this months @pixelmixers.bsky.social cover contest and @soundole.bsky.social #SoundoleChillOut2025! Youtube link in the reply 🍌🐵

The Xylophone in the Woods

Let's do a bit of teasing. My next video may include multi-instrumental nonsense like this one. Who would have thought it could sound like this. This is unfiltered raw recording.

You should consider participating in this competition. The community around it is a sweet and supportive one with a lot of musical skills. It is a highlight of my musical journey each year and hope to be able to finish my next production for it.

Now let's go back to musical stuff. I have been lucky enough to attend the Extra Lives Music in Paris, two weeks ago. They are a VGM cover band from North America. They have put on a show where the audience is capable of voting to choose directions in a story and influence which tune will be next.

I am again busy as Hell. There was quite a few things I wanted to share but was unable too. To start with, I have a few photos from my winter hikes. It may only interest a few people. So I will post them in the same thread. Let's start with this photo from the Chablais massif.

#thursdaygear Last November, I was lucky enough to spend some time in Syos studio in Paris. I tried different mouthpieces for more than one hour. I was able to test some signature ones like @insaneintherainmusic.com's. I ended up buying an orange Steady and have been loving it since.

It's been a while since I did a "Bass of Duty" VGM cover. Like or Share if you think I should do it again. youtu.be/DuQ87La_1I4?...

A chaque (re)visionnage d'un.e de ses films ou séries, la même question : Satoshi Kon ne serait-il pas le plus grand réalisateur de sa génération ? Voire même plus encore...

Du coup pour les nouveaux : j'organise des jams autour de la musique de jeu vidéo à Paris ; c'est un très bon moyen de venir écouter cette musique de façon chill autour d'un verre 🎶 La prochaine est ce dimanche, si vous pouvez RT et partager auprès de vos proches intéressés ça m'aiderait beaucoup 🙏

Bilan du week-end.

When the original composer (Shinichi Sakamoto) pops in the comments of your cover, out of nowhere, and you don't know what to answer. 🥰 I saw less interest in my latest production and that left me wondering. This is encouraging and show I am going in the right direction.

This is great work and you should do yourself a favor and listen to it.

We covered one of my favorite video game pieces of all time recently - To Zanarkand! Based on the Distant Worlds orchestral arrangement. Featuring endlessrepeat on piano! youtu.be/_GkDp_OmYcs

Here is my latest cover and my entry to Soundole competition #soundolechillout2024. It is a medley from Wonder Boy: Monster World III for the Genesis. youtube.com/watch?v=ezkS...

I was supposed to do three days of mountain climbing starting tomorrow. The weather decided otherwise. Better be safe at home. This will give me free time to start working on my Soundole ChillOut entry.

Hello. I have been 'fairly' absent for a while with nearly no social media interaction. This was due to a massive amount of work at the day job and not a lack of interest. But fear not, I have been able to work on music again recently and plan on bringing back the sweet comments.

Say CC, do you have any fun built-in sound on your EWI ? Me: I don't think so. My EWI: Sure thing !

Let's put a bit of content here. I was supposed to be up the mountains this week-end but I had to cancel because of the weather. So here are some fairly old photos I took in 2008. "Glacier du Tour" and "Aiguille du Chardonnet".

New cover tonight, premiering at 8 p.m. UTC. I had a tremendous help from my mate Leo, master of plucked strings, multi instrumental nonsense hero and silly intros lover. It will also feature tools from @bgollie.bsky.social

Hello Blue Sky. Saxophone hobbyist and mountains lover here. Expect VGM cover once in a while on my Youtube Channel: www.youtube.com/@cookedchico... and some mountain photos. Usually English content, may sometimes be French.
