Omg I used to love BlΓΌmchen. Now she's showing up in supermarket ads in Germany πŸ˜†

Trans rights are human rights. ICE should be abolished. The president is a sex offender and formalizing turning the US into a fascist state. Ukraine and Palestine both deserve our support and political will. The climate crisis and biodiversity crises are real. Musk = asshole. Did I forget anything?

It was such a pleasure being interviewed by @lillyschwartz.bsky.social ! She did the cover art for both my albums and also has a wonderful YT channel about synths and photography.

We chat about synths, AI and science fiction. Enjoy!

I would say keep it - fans liquidity is surely the most important factor.

It also explains all those muddy mixes! And here I thought it was too much reverb... πŸ˜†

Audiophiles Fail to Hear Difference in Signal Passed Through Copper Cable, Banana, and Tray of Mud Try telling the difference yourself before going all Nelson Muntz, though.

There is so much pseudoscience and woo in the world of audio gear, this doesn't surprise me at all.

I feel like lots of indie musicians are doing more PR for themselves than a label would ever do. Social media has really given us that power.

Ambient Patch from Scratch with Plinky
YouTube video by Nathan Plante Synths Ambient Patch from Scratch with Plinky

I've got a new Plinky tutorial up! In this one I build an easy ambient patch (drenched in reverb) and talk a bit about how to creatively tweak some of Plinky's parameters.

You can patch along with me or just skip to the jam at the end πŸ€“

Art and music have historically survived because of subsidies, so I think this is a great move!

Really enjoyed exploring Plinky's sampler in my latest tutorial. The ambient jam at the end was fun too!

Oooh curious which city that we'll be. Will we be able to jam on synths together?!?

Nice! I just got the email that I'll be able to start testing soon, looking forward to trying it out and uploading my music.

Pro tip: I suggest tying the controller to your wrist so that you don't throw it across the room.

(I'm also playing The Last Campfire to calm my nerves after Silksong sessions)

Oh man I finally had a small breakthrough today in Silksong, after all but giving up. Finally moved past the deep docks. But the frustration in this one is real!

Oh that makes sense! I had Qobuz and have been waiting for the subscription to end. I hope my click counted anyway!
