Keep this on your radar. I've been attempting to do as much live instrument recording as possible for this project which has resulted in a deliriously light sleep schedule, but hopefully it will be worthwhile. Send more coffee!!!!

I DID FX WORK ON THIS!!!!!! Pls watch the full pilot when it drops, everyone ate and left zero crumbs

Guys, I just counted. I've recorded 187 guitar tracks SO FAR for @studiopsycho.bsky.social's pilot episode of Heathens. That doesn't include scrapped drafts or parts that ended up getting removed. This will be epic as long as I don't run out of coffee. Also, watch the episode on Nov. 14th.
