On one hand: I don't have the bizarro hateboner for modern Roland that 75% of internet synthheads seem to have On the other: $2600 for the new TR-1000 lolwut u srs?

Affirmations for every artist here!!!

This is... not something I like to ask for. But due to reasons I would rather not go into (nor should I most likely), I'm currently suspended from my job without pay for an indeterminate amount of time Thus, if any of y'all are able to help: neapolitanhusky.bandcamp.com ko-fi.com/neapolitanhu...

I haven't officially lost my job, although... it's up in the air whether or not I'll keep it still. And if I do, I'm not sure when I'll return yet And I'll be honest, so far I have enough cash to keep me and my husband afloat for now. But any help would still be appreciated

BRB, gonna make a quick trip to IRM

Raiden-ing out onto your feeds: some Japanese PC eye candy. The FM Towns has such an interesting design with its narrow tower and CD drive - reportedly the first computer to come with one as standard.

Oh good fucking christ, there are AI slop "artists" trying to refer to their garbage as "synth art" now

GY!BE took their music off spotify. "L. Now I gotta buy all their music just to listen to them" ...YEAH, MAN.

I've said this a million times but if you love a musician's work, you owe it to yourself as a listener to actually purchase a copy that can't get messed with. It's less convenient by design, but it's worth it.

For myself, I would honestly rather you pirate my music than give more money to Daniel Ek.

Things That Have Improved Here on BlueSky: searching up "Loona" ends up giving you Loona and not some K-Pop star :3 Things That Haven't Improved Here on BlueSky: searching up "Krystal" still gives you only a 50/50 chance of actually getting Krystal and not some random hoomie porn star >:(

Important comments being added to this gigantic Loona drawing on wplace

It’s always a double standard. She’s literally telling her followers “Dox whoever you think isn’t a real woman” - something that can lead to stalking, harassment, violence, and death - including for cis women. But we’re the terrible people if we say we want karma to catch up with her. Always.

It’s sad that the discussion around pornography is always framed as “it’s potentially harmful.” It’s also potentially healthy? What did you learn about yourself, your body, your gender, your preferences, your boundaries and your self expression through the smut you consume?

they should suspend people for wishing JK Rowling well, tbh

The choice is obvious: the Siel MDP-40 aka the "Greatest Worst Drum Machine Ever Made"

*the old Toys R Us theme "I don't wanna grow up, I'm a toys r us kid"* I don't wanna grow up, I'm a traumatized fur

Finland I owe you an apology. I wasn’t really familiar with your game 😍🥴🥵

Don’t forget even when things seem really really stupid, we still have to try~

Booting up for a new week; good morning, y'all. 💜

Apple Lisa™️ - Ed Deans https://macthemes.garden/themes/77a7f52e8e83-Apple-Lisatm

I've probably said it before, but I HATE the term "Intelligent Dance Music" There's just something so... uppity and cringe-inducing (actual cringe not Internet "Cringe™") about claiming one form of electronic and/or dance music is somehow more "Intelligent" than other forms

Convention - David Catmull https://macthemes.garden/themes/c34030081aa7-Convention

I seriously need to get around to learning how Bryce 3D works I mean ffs I'm starting to experiment with making 90s DnB, might as well go the full monty and make abstract ray traced landscapes

Pre-rendered menus like this <3 X-Wing Alliance was another big fave of mine for that kind of thing.

One of the title screens that always brings a grin to my face, watching it flutter away on my screen. In 2000, I was deep into Windows PC gaming, taking a break from being more console-focused. Well, except for being balls-deep in ZSNES and Gens32, experiencing so many classics for the first time.

Still one of the best game installers. <3 Does some lovely worldbuilding and mood-setting for the air adventures ahead with its 1930s/40s-ey radio play. (Note: This kind of installer was rare even then) 📺: Crimson Skies, Zipper Interactive, 2000

Just make it exist first, you can make it good later

Ground Zero Emerald - Clint J. Cooper https://macthemes.garden/themes/a495b0ae13df-Ground-Zero-Emerald

Corporate work culture and social shame have conditioned you into thinking rest is laziness unless earned. Rest is self care. Plain and simple.

g r e y d a n c e r I almost lost this in an unfortunate power outage due to Missouri's "fantastic" electrical grid (fantastic with HUGE sarcasm quotes). But I've been listening to too much 90s atmospheric drum & bass so this happened #synthsky #drum&bass #jam #music #synthesizers #furrymusician

It's often pretty obvious when I'm listening to one particular genre or style of electronic music a bit too much Because I end up trying to make something in that genre or style

"I have nothing against trans people, but sports..." - Someone who very clearly has something against trans people. "But biological..." HRT CHANGES OUR BIOLOGY, learn the first god damn thing about trans people, just try and learn something about the very people you spend so much time hating.

I've played this at a bunch of cons since like... 2022 or something Probably should actually record it properly, especially considering what came out recently #synthsky #furry #furrymusician #undertale #deltarune #synths #synth #music #cover
