@andychalk.bsky.social Hey, good to see you here!

Maybe it's just me, but Fallout Season 2 has been kinda meh. I'm four episodes in, and I feel like bailing.

ICE agents are, simply put, fucking clowns. Some observations from four days on the ground in Minneapolis. www.garbageday.email/p/we-re-all-...

I'm thrilled to be a part of the @unlockaudio.bsky.social team as the resident composer for the Futuristic & Cool studio! If you're a game studio of ANY size and need help realizing your sound and music vision, hit us up!

@youranoncentral.bsky.social You know what to do... www.fox9.com/news/ice-off...

My mind is goddamn blown by the Ableton Move. The biggest limitation is that you get four tracks max, but that aside, this thing is powerful and complex. A piece of music can be up to 128 bars in length(!!). You get two oscillators in a synth patch, ENVs, LFOs, parameter automation, effects..

Man, this thing is more powerful than I thought! Ableton recently added the ability to actually create your own synth patches from scratch. This thing is basically a portable, lite version of Ableton Live. I'm an instant fan!

I just bought the Ableton Move because I wanted to spend more time away from the desk, and sketch out my synthwave ideas on something with more constraints (read: fewer choices, sonically). Can't wait for it to arrive tomorrow!

Christmas vacation mode is ON! I'm planted on the couch with an iced coffee, going through Anthony Marinelli's synth course to brush up on my skills. 🎄🎹🤌

Merry Christmas to everyone celebrating today! 🎄

The season finale of Pluribus was excellent! One of the best shows I've seen in a while. Anyone know the name of the piano piece in this episode, BTW?

I know it's a bit early, but my New Year's resolution is to be more active on Bluesky. I dunno about y'all, but I'm grateful that we have a social media platform NOT owned by morally bankrupt assholes.

Joystick deflection is one of the poorest named Steam input modes ever. What is it? It sounds like someone's throwing a joystick at me and I used my shield to block that shit. 😆

@wesleyleblanc.bsky.social Hey Wesley! I saw your write-up on the best Steam deals for their winter sale. Don't forget Hogwarts Legacy at a whopping 90% off! 🤯

This was a fun one to work on! samhulick.com/projects/sie...

Just released some new music today! For an upcoming game...probably...? 👀😉 Stay tuned for more next year. hypeddit.com/6go6w5

The new single is live for those of you across the pond and beyond! open.spotify.com/album/44WEkM...

Anyone else watching Pluribus on Apple TV+? This show is absolutely fantastic!

I appreciate everyone who has my stuff on repeat! 😎🙏 Thanks for a great 2025!

New computer glasses, engraved with a nerdy CSS reference.

The enshittification of the US continues. 🤦‍♂️ www.nytimes.com/2025/11/25/h...

Well, HELLO there! This just popped up on my radar, and I think I need this. store.steampowered.com/app/2592160/... @adhocstudio.com

Pre-save link is live! T minus 22 days! hypeddit.com/6go6w5

New single dropping December 5th! You won't wanna miss this one. Pre-save link coming soon.

Starting a new artist profile from scratch is a slow climb, but the progress is visible! V22X has 145 monthly listeners, and the first single (launched September 26th) has 231 streams. Baby steps! open.spotify.com/artist/5v8fB...

Late night messing around with hit boxes in Godot.

My first synthwave release as V22X is out now! Hit the link and check out "Summer Nights," and lemme know what you think! link.v22x.fm/summer-nights

Hey fellow music makers (especially music producers who work with virtual drum kits a lot): I own an Akai LPD8 mk2, and it's great, but I feel like 8 pads is not enough. Can anyone recommend a good 16+ pad MIDI controller? I'm considering the Akai MPD218, PreSonus Atom, & Novation Launchpad X. Tnx!

We're 7 months in and Trump and the oligarchs have completely seized control of the media. If you criticize them, your show will be pulled from the air. This is what dictators do. Fascism isn't coming, it's here.

REPOST if you stand with Jimmy Kimmel!

I know I said I was going to keep this new artist profile under wraps and let it grow organically on its own, but.. screw it. 😆 Meet my alter ego: V22X! link.v22x.fm/bio The first single release, "Summer Nights," is coming September 26th! Hit the link above to pre-save it.

Time to schedule the release of a new track. Electronic sub-genre options are always disappointing. Phonk? Check. Goa trance? Check. But synthpop, or synthwave? Nowhere to be found.

Learned enough Blender to make a cool splash animation for a new music project of mine. Months later, I need to make some changes to it. Forgot how to use Blender. Fuck. 😆

The latest acquisition in reverb plugins for creating tasty synthwave vibes! Wave Alchemy Glow (RMX16 emulation) and Arturia Rev LX-24 (Lexicon 224 emulation).

Well, I learned how to use FMOD Studio. That wasn't so bad.. and a ton of fun!

Another example of a cover that's way way better than the original. Daaaang! www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5V_...

Writing some new music for a game I'm working on, and tapping into synths + creepy choir chants. Just a normal Saturday! #cults #sacrifice

🗣️ Indivisible Greater West Loop got into some Good Trouble tonight! ⚡️The energy in Daley Plaza was electric. It was an honor to celebrate the legacy of John Lewis and hear from so many powerful speakers. 🔥 Thanks to all the amazing organizers! 👉 Join us for the next one! indivisiblegwlchi.org

Hey gamers! What have you picked up for the Steam Sale so far? I grabbed MGS: The Phantom Pain (never played it!) to scratch that military stealth itch, and Sniper Elite 4, because I need a healthy outlet that allows me to shoot Nazis. 😏

@indivisiblechicago.bsky.social Any plans for the No Kings 2.0 protest on July 4th?

Hey friends~! So, little announcement: I voiced one of the characters in Take Us North. It's been wonderful seeing this project come to life and I can't wait for y'all to experience it. If you can, please support this team and help them bring this deeply important game to the masses! Back them!👇🏽

I think it's high time I create an extended version of...

"The grass is greener" syndrome prompted me to demo various glue/master compressors. I tried Cytomic's The Glue, and SSL Native Bus Compressor 2. Then I went back to SPL Iron, which I own. MY GOD, the difference is night & day. If you want transparency, the first two are great. But..

😴😹

If you like downtempo/ambient stuff, you gotta check out this tune from a friend of mine! open.spotify.com/track/2oo1e8... Trippy, dreamy, and I love the organic elements and string trills sprinkled throughout!

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.
