wormwood part one is now out on bandcamp! it’ll also be available on streaming platforms next month. patterndecay.bandcamp.com/album/wormwo... #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

second to last progress video before release next friday (3/20)!🙀 #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

just over two weeks until release (3/20). a little nervous but hopefully i should make it 😅 #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

keeping it simple for this one #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

writing lots of endings #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

big fan of the harmony part that comes in in the second half #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

running out of things to clip haha. here’s a transition #synthesizer #lofi #psychedelicrock #progrock #synthtok

the end of part one. just gotta go back and tidy everything up. planning to release on the spring equinox. #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

freed up my hands to focus just on cutoff control #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

getting pretty close to having the full structure sketched out for this EP, but still a ways to go before release #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

just got this new piano, and it’s honestly such an inspiring instrument to play. i keep ending up spending a bunch of time just playing when i mean to be composing or practicing haha #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

some more high energy material for the end of wormwood pt 1 #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

back to composing after a long hiatus #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

you’d never guess i started out composing writing music for rpgmaker games 😆 #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

occasionally i remember that blues scales are a thing #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

i feel like i’ve written this before lol #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

sometimes the sections i write quickly just sound better to me #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

here’s a buildup with no resolution #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

reprising the intro with a bit more of an edge #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

i feel like i’m always a little surprised by what comes out when i write something new #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

reapproaching this track from a different direction. i think this is why i’ve been avoiding working with a narrative - stuff either doesn’t fit and sounds good, or fits but doesn’t sound good lol #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

visiting with family, so i don’t have access to my synths, but i found this arpy idea i had been working on a while back using teletone anamorph and a few previously recorded synth parts #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

getting started on track 2 - this’ll be part of the intro (and returning later in a more energetic version as the chorus) #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

adding a little bit of variation to the repeat of this section #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

end section of the first piece. structure is done, just need to fill in a few transitions and things #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

decided to rewrite this section - the last one wasn’t quite the right vibe, and was a bit too busy and wander-y also the algorithm was not a fan of my “creative” lighting hahaha #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

focusing on one track at a time now so i can have the full songs streamable online sooner. also, experimenting with some new lighting to add a little visual interest as my idea to use a projector didn’t quite pan out. #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

with retrograde done, i’m starting work on the next project - a full length concept album #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

starting to work on some visuals to go along with the music. still needs a lot of work, but you’ve got to start somewhere! #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky #touchdesigner

Amazing article. "More recently, researchers have found that the viral outrage disseminated on social media ... actually reduces the effectiveness of collective action. The result is a media environment that keeps us in a state of ..fear and anger... instead of organizing against [our oppressors]."

Bandcamp is apparently donating 100% of its share of profits today to California wildfire relief efforts, so this is an IDEAL time to pick up some psychedelic synth prog from yours truly!

retrograde EP is out today on bandcamp! patterndecay.bandcamp.com/album/retrog... #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

releasing on bandcamp next Friday! did a little sprucing up on the second repeat of this theme #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

decided to extend this climax section. i’m starting to sweat a bit trying to reach my self-imposed deadline of 4/7 for bandcamp early release 😅 #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

getting so close - aiming for early release on bandcamp the week of my bday (feb 4) then everywhere else a month later. #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

still busy with holidays, here’s a few more pretty chords #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky

too busy xmas-ing to write new music, here’s some pretty chords #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky #musictheory

oops, made this one a little heavy 😅 this is the last section of new composition, it’s just arranging and mixing from this point #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

the penultimate progress video. idk what i’m going to post after the next one lol #synthesizer #synthsky #musiciansky #musicsky

leading up to the move to this new house, i was really excited to *finally* start drumming again. then, the day before we moved in, almost all of my drums were stolen. tbh it was pretty devastating, BUT using what was left and a handful of new parts, i’ve put together a minimalistic electronic kit!

so from 80s synthpop we got the modern genre #synthwave - have we done that for 90s/00s melodic trance yet? #musicsky #musiciansky

getting down to the last few sections before i start tying up loose ends and then on to final mixing 😁 #synthesizer #synthsky #newmusic

sometimes I still write gamey sounding music despite myself lol

first bluesky post haha. idk how to use this platform yet, here’s just my normal content. trying out some new editing and the Kinotone Ribbons pedal
