NEW MANEKA SINGLE OUT TODAY! 🤡

Listen to "yung yeller" — @manekadevin69.bsky.social goes fully introspective, leaning into his signature sound of slowcore thrash and a sneaky deep-bass vocal to reflect on the wide-eyed optimism & naive invincibility of teenage youth.

I feel like if I was Steve Kerr I’d probably be tired of coaching basketball

The first hardcore band I’ve ever mixed is in the highest ceiling boomy room I’ve ever been in. Sweeet

Yo why I always get the delivery drivers that spin around in circles on the map two blocks away?

The special guest on the Philly flier is Speedy Ortiz lol

Do ppl advertise shows here? Well I am. Grass is Green (my band from 10 years ago) is reuniting in Boston, NYC and Philly. We’ll be accompanied by Ovlov Speedy Ortiz and Pile! Old friends good times…

Called my mom to wish her happy birthday and ended up advocating for full communism somehow. But she loves me regardless and that’s what family is all about

A 60 degree day in December is like the “pizza party at the office before delivery of bad news” of weather

I did not think cat tv would work on my cat but he’s seemingly hooked from now until who knows

I just read a quote where Morrisey compares being cancelled with lynching. When will white ppl stop doing this?

It’s like just measure my seasoning when I cook or something and we’re prob good on the help.

I keep seeing these doomsday movies about AI where they give AI all the tasks and it goes horribly.

A few practical uses for AI in music: keep my guitar in tune, click track mimicking specific human, and isolating stems for better transcription.

If you’re reading this do that one small edit those bands really need you to do like now.

Yall should be more like me and turn your instagram story into tweets. Say your dumb shit and it disappears on its own

Yea I saw this pianist use it and it’s really powerful. You can create your own modular effects and program expression pedal functions too. I also am wondering how practical it is for live settings tho

Not sure how gear Bluesky is yet but does anyone have any strong opinions about the Zoia Empress?

When you don’t like someone it really is harder to do things they ask for. I never thought spite would be so much more powerful than pragmatism.
