Morning commute

I just saw this photo of the linguist Yuri Knorozov,and this is the energy that I plan on taking with me into 2026.

I just saw a post that said that everyone has a sandwich that they think about for the rest of their lives. I was like, "no" but I realized I do. It was an eggplant parmesan that a girl at a bar didn't finish and just gave to me. I was drunk but I remember how good it was. This was decades ago.

I am really not built for social media. At all.

my cover of the Michael Jackson classic Human Nature is available everywhere right now! except for Tidal cause they fucked up my release yet again, thanks for nothing Tidal. but they'll fix it eventually, maybe.

Walking through the nearly-deserted downtown tunnel system while listening to Beach House has easily been the highlight of my week.

I've been sitting on this for a while, but a prominent Synthwave brand featured one of my tracks earlier this year. I don't want to sound ungrateful, but - as far as I can tell - I am the ONLY one that they have ever used generative AI visuals for when putting up the video. What's up with that?

Jumped from 700 to 800 followers this week. Got a synthwave, chillwave, or cyberpunk track? Submit it. About a 90 percent approval rate. We only reject AI, wrong-genre, or badly produced stuff. One of the few playlists curated by actual musicians. Submission form: dailyplaylists.com/playlists/1a...

I got added to a YouTube Music playlist! music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

30+ projects in production, some from the start of the year, and I suddenly hate every single one of them. Maybe it's just been too much time since I really learned and tried to apply something new.

Might sound weird, but I've never been the kind of person to say that I couldn't live without music. Still, sometimes it's all that's there.

I don't exactly love dubstep - don't hate it, just don't love it, either - but this is one of my favorite music videos of all time, and you can probably see why by the neon retro aesthetic. youtu.be/jVfU1DY73Tk?...

Can't get enough of this right now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWKm...

Thanks a ton for the add @isidor.rs! Really great collection of tracks, too, I gotta say!

Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue

I don’t promote my Spotify links anymore because the company is evil. But you can still hear my tunes on YouTube! I’ve got music to listen to when driving, running, sex, working, studying, gardening, cooking, bathing, 420ing, goonin‘, washing dishes, and more! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Just randomly remembered my "YO WTF" reaction watching the Transformers movie (1986) as a kid and seeing Autobots get murdered left and right after years of watching the cartoon with zero deaths.

Can't believe I never thought of posting these here before, but I'm hosting a synthwave (and related) producer challenge on Reddit: old.reddit.com/r/synthwavep...

This is for the October track challenge from the synthwaveproducers subreddit on Reddit. The challenge is to create your own score for the opening chase scene in Troll 2: youtube.com/watch?v=BCbF...

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers.

Halloween track I did a while back. I actually made this to submit to a label's Halloween compilation but they never listened to it so I released it on my own. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJTd...

I see quite a bit of M.A.S.K. on social media, but one 80s cartoon I never see mentioned is Pole Position. I always loved the theme song: youtu.be/EQXqHNHPLHI?...

Still thinking about Daniel Adam. How many still do? How long until no one does? www.youtube.com/watch?v=cibe...

I was checking my numbers and the track that I threw together in around 2 hours for some Reddit challenge (using Seinfeld "Serenity Now" samples, of all things) has 1k+ listens and the one that I've been painstakingly crafting since January has 96. Yep, that tracks.

Electrifies your inner feelings 👊 Let's Ram It Down 👇 youtu.be/QOcJ9y6xfSc?... My #synthmetal tribute to the Metal Gods is on all digital platforms 🤟😈🤙

I'm incredibly proud to have put this together with @thebitchdigital.com. Check out this awesome synthwave compilation benefiting the Palestine Children's Relief Fund pcrf.net!

I just saw a post about Shadowgate for the NES and I totally forgot that I ever played this. I had forgotten about this game - and the fact that I played it - for decades. Thinking about looking for a playable copy, but I've got music to work on.

I like how buying a plugin means that I'm going to see ads for that plugin every day for the rest of my life. Whoever came up with THAT algorithm needs to be shot with shit.

One of those promo scammers played the long game on me. Weeks of glowing feedback that sounded like chatgpt, and then dropped the, "I can help you reach your audience with my strategies" pitch. Tone completely shifted, went instantly from fan to consultant. Can't trust anyone these days.

It's gotten to the point where I need a Voight-Kampff machine that attaches to my phone.

I just found out about New York Ninja, why didn't anyone tell me about this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1wM...
