If you are feeling exhausted by the state of art and creativity in the world like I have been, you should go see Bi Gan's RESURRECTION as soon as possible, I recommend it. It might not be showing near you, but it's worth a shot

SantaCorps: Snow Patrol - coming soon to Steam. ❄️Wishlist today!❄️ [ #Christmas #gaming #indiegames ]

Immediately filled with regret upon seeing that adding an 8-page booklet costs less than a dollar per CD, I love CDs. They're so cheap and cool-looking and easy to ship and they sound amazing. And you can rip them and have the best files.

one shame with CDs not being as much of a thing is that I likely won't get hired to do art for an album booklet, but I DID get to do a full Digipak design for this @2mello.net album, which ruled 2mellomakes.bandcamp.com/album/this-y...

New trailer for Town of Zoz features one of my favorite songs I made for the game, a track that needed to feel like the classic Dragon Ball soundtrack without the small orchestra. Pulled it off! www.youtube.com/watch?v=efg1...

Wanted to let everyone know, please do not pay exorbitant resale prices for my Sounds Of Tokyo-To Future vinyl. I'm apparently popular enough to have someone trying to flip copies for high amounts, but I am going to keep re-printing this vinyl. It will never be a limited edition unless I say so!

Welcome to the Town of Zoz, our anime inspired action RPG! This delicious new trailer reveals new cinematics, enemies, dungeons and features music by @2mello.net Can you tell we love Dragon Ball? www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlOD...

Yeah I only use AI for the fun part right at the beginning where we're kicking ideas around and not worried about budget or expectations. Just the best part of any group creative endeavor, me and my team challenging each other with our most visionary ideas, I'm looking to automate that

I'm so glad this blew up because I'm about to put out some straight ass music and I'm glad you'll all hold me down /s

Seeing people in the comments saying that To a T was unfun and essentially that he deserves this if he can't make a good game. Gamers, I don't know how else to say this, artists are not supposed to be punished with financial ruin for making imperfect art. That's such a fucked up idea you have

During the winter, sometimes you have to kick back with a book... ...and @2mello.net on the sax!!! Wishlist Santacorps 4 on Steam and follow @virtuoso-neomedia.bsky.social for more updates! store.steampowered.com/app/3398530/... [ #indiegames #gaming #christmas #music ]

WHAT THE FUCK ABSYNTH 6 CAME OUT??????????????

A Digital Audio Player renewed my love of music: aftermath.site/digita-audio-p...

SENRITSU KAIKI FILE 1: this lady is pretty tall and scary SENRITSU KAIKI FILE 6: you must complete 4 missions, director of noroi who has become the main character of this film, or everyone will die. There is a floating giant over Tokyo like Drakengard

Reminder (plea?) on the day of. This was personally the first year that broke me on this event, never liked the guy but him and his events just keep getting more wack. I will be playing Metroid Prime and hanging with Myles Mackenzie or making beats

We finally have a release date... DEMON TIDES IS LAUNCHING ON STEAM FEBRUARY 19TH, 2026! This is the hardest we've ever cooked and we can't wait for y'all to dive in! Check out the spanking new trailer!

I'm so proud of the style we landed on for this game! Its some of best work imo #games #christmas

If it hasn't been made clear, I love Virtuoso Neomedia so much that I would do that thing that SEGA guy did with the Dreamcast and give all my money to save the company if it came to it (but it wouldn't save the company because I don't have that much money)

I have worked with @virtuoso-neomedia.bsky.social on projects since the late 2010s and this is our debut on Steam. I want to work with this studio forever, so it would mean so much to me if you wishlisted these 2 games and looked forward to them! store.steampowered.com/app/3398530/...

This holiday season we're bringing not just one present, but TWO! Wishlist SantaCorps 4: DX and SantaCorps: Snow Patrol DX on Steam now! [ #indiedev #indiegames #gaming #Christmas ] linktr.ee/virtuosoneom...

It's Bandcamp Friday if you want some cold hard music files 2mellomakes.bandcamp.com

I appreciate that people are listening to me at all and I don't want to be ungrateful, but these remain my thoughts on Spotify in particular and I want to leave the platform behind as soon as it's personally viable. My music's the same on all services and actually sounds less good on Spotify.

Here’s my Spotify Wrapped 🎵✨

Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it. So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

The way most musicians distribute to streaming services is through a distributor that lets you literally check a box to add a new service. So if the music has been pushed to one service, it's on them all. In fact, the streaming service that more musicians intentionally avoid is Spotify!!

I appreciate that people are listening to me at all and I don't want to be ungrateful, but these remain my thoughts on Spotify in particular and I want to leave the platform behind as soon as it's personally viable. My music's the same on all services and actually sounds less good on Spotify.

I've been listening to a lot of this year's rap for studies/seeing what people are doing right now and I think this album has impressed me the most (Ghais Guevara - Goyard Ibn Said) www.youtube.com/watch?v=VO05...

Feels like this is probably the ideal year to stop even hate-watching and live-posting the game awards. I feel like we can exercise that amount of restraint and self-love, yeah?

Shirts, patches, and CDs 33-35% off for the next week! I'm clearing out merch to make room for new stuff in the new year. Everything comes with stickers and download codes. Grab something by December 5th (Bandcamp Friday) <3 tvma.bandcamp.com/merch Model: @mintraine.bsky.social

Had my first instance of going through old beats, saying "whoa what did I sample for this" and the thing I was talking about turned out to be literally me playing the instruments and I'd forgotten 😊

My dad, papabrewista is going to be spending Thanksgiving in the ICU. I'm going to be doing a last-minute fundraiser stream TONIGHT starting around 5:30pm ET @ twitch.tv/mariabrewista You can donate here, and if you can't donate, PLEASE share the link! tilt.fyi/nrF0nHImhO

I haven't seen this talked about much on Bluesky, probably because there's like near zero hip-hop representation on this website and I feel a good amount of people would pearl-clutch about copyright infringement. But this is another important wedge between Spotify and artists

I've talked about Whosampled before as the site where snitching got Return Of The Soul removed from streaming services. It is now being officially looped into Spotify via this SongDNA feature that presents as artist-supportive! www.whosampled.com/news/2025/11... artists.spotify.com/blog/spotlig...

Buy it or not, but the best thing you can do for my music's future is to download/rip files of it to a cool music app/device and show it to me You can find the files. My music is free-flowing. If you feel like you'd never hear me again if I left Spotify, that is an issue between you and Spotify.

looking for people that wanna make commercials to promote their own account or art or etc., I think itd be cool if all the commercials are for other creators online so if that sounds like something you wanna make msg me lets get talking B)

the richest people in the world talk about the disruptive tech for people like it's an opinion. it is extreme tech and they are force-feeding it to us while telling us to shut up. we can never be extreme enough about it

Happy Birthday to Me! A year ago today I played this show at the Meatlocker in New Jersey. The clock stroke midnight in the venue as I wrapped up one of the last dates on my first west/east coast tour. I got to open for Girls Rituals and Bubblegum Octopus. Planning to tour a lot more in 2026 🖤

Step to the rhythm, move to the rhythm, slide to the rhythm, spin and do it all over again with my song Twist Sound in Unbeatable! Fun fact, I sampled myself acting as a dance instructor for that song and even did steps to it to get clothes rustle in there and make it sound more authentic.
