Active Presence

pet hate of mine too. especially as the original context of the content is not thought of (like, is it conceptually apt). Some of those gifs like of dude crying might be someone having a real melt down. it's extremely exploitative and bad taste.

definitely ... there's a couple of my melodies that stuck with me for years, my family unconsciously humming them too. But on the flipside I've literally not released music because the song it sounds like is more prominent in my mind. I guess it's a risk of making hypnagogic pop. lol

Just saw there's one copy of the d a y t o n a cassette left on Business Casual. If you were meaning to cop but just didn't get round to it, this is literally the last chance. gotta have it! ; )

when I'm intentionally ripping off a song, I usually end up with an earworm of whatever that song was ripping off. lol
accidentally learned quite a few artists' formula from that.

if I come out of a production session with an earworm of the tune I'm working on, and not lyrics of the song it's accidentally ripping off, that's a win for me. lmao

the only critique artistically that stands out, is the chat conversation as film credit roll (guessing chatgpt came up with that idea), though a nice idea, feels like it's the end of the film, not the beginning of something new. gives a sleepy waiting until the end of the credits in the cinema vibes

artistically the adverts are actually beautiful and hail back to an older era of commercials. obv they're exploiting the lived nostalgia of older generations and the longing for better now in the youth. now, imagine if they'd adopted the 'it'll do' attitude their technology nurtures in its users.

the fact OpenAI shot 35 mm film, used human crafted music for their chatgpt ad kind of shows they too don't believe in slop. So, all what they're selling with this ad campaign is an advanced internet search summarizer, and schedule organizer. It assists lives, doesn't threaten jobs, definitely not.

every year I make the same joke, but I seriously listen to this album all year- the seasons do give it different vibes, it's especially comforting in summer. But as the name suggests, it really is best in autumn. Top 5 album, been listening to it for 20+ years now. youtu.be/3e1gkynGXXM?...

fresh

checking out Spotify with lossless on and normalization off- my music sounds how it's supposed to now! If you haven't listened in a while, check it out now the sound is decent. Me saying good things about spotify is not something I would have predicted. ; ) open.spotify.com/album/6PbZdl...

it's so bad. lol people's hair looks fake and their face kind of morphs. It's like when you find a new eq plugin and you want to go fix all music you ever made, and end fucking it all up. lmao youtube should just leave it alone. but I guess even people uploading are doing it pre-upload too. smh

AI upscaled youtube shorts has to be the worst aesthetic ever. Especially warbley vhs interviews with bands in the 90s look really cursed. Just show it how it was. Unnecessary application of 'AI' is seriously so grating by now.

when you start again from 0 listeners on spotify and don't promote it, saying 'monthly listeners' is a little misleading, like it just means here's how many accounts the algorithm has recommended it to. I wonder what metadata that's based on besides just other accounts with fuck all listeners. lol

re-uploads should reappear on playlists within 24 hrs I think.

putting all full albums/EPs on my youtube. main albums are also back on streaming sites, incl. apple - now it's all up and I'll just forget about it. ; ) I want everything available on all platforms, so I can draw a line, move on and make some new music.

Vaporwave MP3 Chopper thingy

I just made a Vaporwave MP3 Chopper thingy. Check it out!

incarta95.neocities.org

I know. they should at least explain exactly how it works.

its promo didn't mention blockchain at all or that it mints the music. it seemed kind of misleading. if I hadn't read the terms I'd still think it was just selling wavs, not nfts. I found it pretty confusing tbh. it's billed as good thing for independents but I can't see how. seems like a lottery.

heads up, check out their terms.

hey yall @acefstripe.bsky.social did up a nice video ahead of their release of my recent album Imaginary People I Thought I Knew and yall should take a gander because it's very dreamy.
