We did it! We hit 1 million views. That's SO MANY LISTENS. Thank you for helping me live a fulfilling, meaningful and passionate life as a musician. Of course, DM DOKURO, HPU, Hakita and Mili are all to thank most of all for giving us wonderful music to enjoy together in new ways.

My cover of Glory by Hakita is out today! Listen: youtu.be/-9nK_ItxxaE It's interesting to visit a song that, according to the wiki, was @hakita.bsky.social "failing" at something. The harmony reflects this in it's sprawl but the transition between keys is hardly a failure. #ULTRAKILL

I'm live fighting the Old Duke and debuting my cover of "Glory" from ULTRAKILL! Come chat: twitch.tv/inertsongs #Terraria

I'm actually gonna lose it. I feel like the luckiest Terraria-tuber on earth today.

My Descent into Hell's Fury cover is out today! Listen: youtu.be/JyxwV6ZXOI0 This is the shortest song I've worked on in a while. I took this as me not working hard enough but after a day away I think it's pretty good. There are sounds I haven't used before because of that pressure. #Terraria

@chippygamingyt.bsky.social noticed me. I'm freaking out 🥹😭

My cover of "War" by @hakita.bsky.social is out today! Listen: youtu.be/2zIsKHIXfag Jembei, one of my lofi colleagues, arranges sinister songs into cute or soothing lofi. I tried try bring my drums up front like him, making this cover a race against time. #ULTRAKILL

Happy Halloween my lovely bits! Stay safe tonight and don't forget to brush your teeth before bed 🪥 www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAxU...

My "Nearing the Inferno" cover is out today! Listen: youtu.be/TTAUuyFynM4 I was reeling from my Deep Blue cover as I started this. You can probably hear the parallels if you listen to my covers of them closer together. #Terraria

My cover of "The Death of God's Will" by @hakita.bsky.social is out today! Listen: youtu.be/iXio3yQNH0Y?... Hakita's ability to elaborate and build the groove, movement after movement, is nothing short of miraculous. Just when I think the intensity has reached it's peak: there's more. #ULTRAKILL

My cover of Gelatin Showers from Vanilla Calamity Mod Music is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/mGCjOi4x5os Chill Story XLXI: This song took a months to win a poll. It taught me to emphasize elements that already existed in the song like the plucky melody in the verses. #Terraria

My cover of "Castle Vein" by @hakita.bsky.social is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/FDfyNM2YcD0 The arrangement and transcription of ULTRAKILL songs isn't getting easier just yet but I feel more excited than scared to approach Hakita's compositions now. #ULTRAKILL

My "Inside the Glaciers" cover is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/2bbwCmzID4A I haven't been this quiet since my lofi sleep days. It was good practice to not lean on the usual breaks and techniques I use to hold interest in the more intense covers I've been putting out. #Art by @foundher.me

Every Wednesday I'll release a new ULTRAKILL cover. I need your help to decide which one comes next. Vote here: youtube.com/post/UgkxCSH... I'm still reeling from War Without Reason's popularity. It's driving me to be careful and detailed. I can't wait to dive into my next Hakita composition.

My cover of Deep Blue by @hakita.bsky.social is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/8baORr994ng The original has unique elements compared to the other ULTRAKILL songs so I let myself have some fun with the sound design. I hope, despite that, it still offers a good backdrop to study or chill to.

My Amidst the Minerals cover is out now! Listen here: youtu.be/Tc6n29fG88k Transcribing this was deceptively hard. I learned that what is most obviously heard isn't everything. Sometimes, the "vibe" of a chord exists because of that quiet, almost hidden note. #art by @thatautumndoe.bsky.social

6k subscribers 🥹 Welcome to all the new ULTRAKILL bits and thank you for this huge outpouring of support since just last week. I'm so grateful you're helping me work toward living my dream of being a full-time music producer 💜

My cover of "Versus" by @hakita.bsky.social is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/hq6M7Xr2cI4 After doing some of the most chill work I've made in ages I decided it was time to go back to Perforators still hip hop. At the risk of being cringey, I'd say I'm "kickin' it old school" on this one.

Live now fighting Moonlord and debuting my covers of "Admist the Minerals" (Calamity) and "Versus" (ULTRAKILL) Watch live: twitch.tv/inertsongs #terraria

In case you missed it, my War Without Reason cover from ULTRAKILL is out now! Listen here: youtu.be/vQCk0anKs94 The amount of support this release has received is truly unbelievable. I feel so lucky that the community finds how I've interpreted this valuable. The composition carries itself though

My Serene Tides cover is out today! Listen: youtu.be/KmAk8kdbLHI I want to prove to myself and to all of you that I have what it takes to make this my career. I wonder if you can hear it in these new songs? #Art by @thatautumndoe.bsky.social

Haven't had an opening day like this since my 2 hour Calamity mix dropped. Welcome to all the new ULTRAKILL frens <33

My "War Without Reason" cover is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/vQCk0anKs94 DM DOKURO challenged me with time signatures and now I have to face an even greater lofi challenge: chilling out amen breaks by @hakita.bsky.social

My cover of Trial by Fire is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/Rmbhnizz1Bw This is one of the first songs I "spent all day" making. I'm excited to be a mostly full-time musician. I hope I can make things of this quality even more often now. #art by @thatautumndoe.bsky.social

Commission for @piki-aero.bsky.social! #pixelart #art #pikmin

My Resurrection of a Cruel World cover is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/9_HfzpMlglM Doing a song by @cyndacat76.bsky.social about transition and collaborating with Sing4dlaughter are a great way to send off the last chapter of my life. Art by @thatautumndoe.bsky.social

UNREAL artwork by thisisgreene based on my Sisyphean grind to defeat Astrageldon in Terraria Calamity Mod. We've got the build now - I'll take Geldon down next stream!

Thought you'd want to see this! My cover of Sanctuary got a big push on Discover Weekly today. I'm so grateful for all of you coming back again and again to listen to it. Kisa and I captured something magical with that song. Thank you <3

My cover of Wrath from the Crypt is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/lcorgeto0Yc If you were at this week's stream you know the context that this was made in. Finishing songs will soon be critical to my survival but I don't want to make mistakes. #art by Maple!

The Chief Logan effect continued. My single biggest day for views on YouTube ever. I feel so incredibly lucky that you're all here to see it with me 💜

What an insane day 🥹 Being featured in the Chief Logan One Block Calamity video catapulted me up to 5k subs in less than 24-hours.

My cover of Under the Earth is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/TihpbUqQ-u0 Chill Story XLIV: This track was minimalistic in a different way. I'm learning that there's a line between bringing my own style and copying the original artist verbatim. #art by Maple!

Let's pick which Calamity song I lofi-ify next! Results will be announced live on my stream this Tuesday night at 6pm Atlantic Time. Vote here: youtube.com/post/UgkxfS4... This week I learned that DELTARUNE's release day was the biggest streaming day I've ever had (by a lot).

My Menace of the Chasms cover by Heart Plus Up! is out today <3 Listen: youtu.be/NrAtdutOct4 There are subtle things in HPU's composing I've appreciated since I began VCMM. This track is more obviously great. I hope I applied my style without disfiguring it. #Art by Maple

Debuting my Menace of the Chasms cover and learning the Astrageldon fight. Watch live now: twitch.tv/inertsongs #terraria

Let's pick which Calamity song I lofi-ify next! Results are announced on stream every Tuesday. Vote here: youtube.com/post/Ugkxw1u... Things have been very chaotic in my world but I know all of this uncertainty will lead to something great for our music community.

My Chambers of the Tyrant cover by Heart Plus Up! is out today <3 Listen here: youtu.be/IlpQbdLj58A There are "Perfect is the enemy of progress" moments. Some sound cool. There's not much "juice" in this lesson but I'm glad I applied it correctly this time. #Art by Maple

Let's pick which Calamity song I lofi-ify next! Results announced live on stream every week. Vote here: www.youtube.com/@InertTheVtu... It's difficult to get ahead because of other chaos in my world. When It's over you'll see a brand new side of me, though (for the better)

My cover of Psychedelic Depths by Heart Plus Up is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/ttGawNR9Sdk I'm hitting a ceiling with my "render it down" philosophy. It's time to learn new skills and do new, exciting and creative things to share with you. #Terraria #art

Live now debuting my cover of Psychedelic Depths and taking on Calamity's Moonlord!! Watch here: twitch.tv/inertsongs

Let's pick which Calamity song I lofi-ify next! Results will be announced live on my stream this Tuesday night at 6pm Atlantic Time. Vote here: youtube.com/post/UgkxH8h... Things are quieter this week while I catch up after the mix drop. After that: more ULTRAKILL! #Terraria

The 3 hour version of my Calamity lofi mix is available now! Listen here: youtu.be/qmggg9fWPN4 Huge shoutout to @mackerdoni.bsky.social for the amazing thumbnail art!

My cover of Fated Insurrection by Heart Plus Up! is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/sspLTmUpOVM It's harrowing to express FI's speed as a chill song but it was a worthy endeavor and really stretched my new skills. Album art by Maple Moth #art #Terraria

My cover of Starry Ascent by Heart Plus Up! hit 3.5k streams in its first week! This crushes the 3k record set by Frozen Over. I'm glad you find this track soothing 💜 Listen here: youtu.be/foPhSObY4eo See you tomorrow for the release of Fated Insurrection and my 3 hour mix!

My cover of Starry Ascent by @heartandup is out today <3 Listen here: youtu.be/foPhSObY4eo I learned windchimes emulate twinkling stars. I added the swoopy chimes that cross each bar then catapulted through the rest of the drums. Art by @starpurring.bsky.social #art

Debuting my cover of Starry Ascent live + trying to take down Plaguebringer! Live now: twitch.tv/inertsongs #Terraria

Did you know you can vote on my flagship Calamity lofi playlist? Now we'll also democratically choose which track is the community favorite. Right now: Congealing Eclipse is winning. Vote to put your favorite on top: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

My cover of Congealing Eclipse by Heart Plus Up and Thriplerex is out today! Listen here: youtu.be/FlF4rsnN5SA Thriplerex is a BEAST. Extra references for synth sounds and percussion were a blessing but the harmony and composition was a unique challenge to navigate. #art
