If you think that the vision cones in games like Metal Gear Solid are unrealistic you should step into a German supermarket on a Saturday afternoon. See if you can get all the way through without having to say "Entschuldigen Sie" once.

Echolox An alternative blend of Pop and Electro filling a gap in the polycentric Ruhrarea. Echolox captures the millennial disillusion and cynicism in an electronic, hyper-connected era. Yet shimmers of hope...

Lastly I want to plug my own page.

Comparing what's up there with what I'm currently working on (which will be part of my upcoming game #pvlse) I was genuinely a bit hesitant to include it here. But I'm still happy with Polarize and Honesty. Give it a listen :)

Computer News, by Adam Znaidi 5 track album

This EP by @adamznaidi.bsky.social is an absolute Tour de Force. "Spicy cosmic prog jazz" really does put it quite well.

I can't decide between Manoel, Aurora and 8 so get them all if you can. Can't put their sound into words, just hit play on Farra Lenta on Aurora and let it move you.

Broken Open, by Natalie Tate 9 track album

I can always put this album on and feel better afterwards. Easily a 10/10 (or 9/9 going by the song count). Every line Natalie sings is in itself a little masterpiece.

C.A.R. "fao fans of kraut-jazz, this is good." - James Holden โ€žThe psychedelic Four of C.A.R., who combine repetition and wobbling.โ€œ - Ulrich Stock, Die Zeit

Some #Bandcamp Friday recommendations! Both new and old favorites.

C.A.R. was a new discovery for me this year with their album Valonia. They also just released a remix EP of it. "Kraut jazz" it says on the page. I think that term works!

๐ŸŽง Free Mario Paint Instrument for #abletonlive

I sampled the sounds from the music composer in #MarioPaint for SNES and made an instrument rack with them.

You can download it for free at the link in the thread below โฌ‡๏ธ

Tracked bass for a math rock song today and learned again that my technique isn't very clean and muting could be better. So there was a lot of punching in and out to fix that.

I've just been told there is (or was) an app called ditty and someone got confused because of that or thought this was made with AI.

I composed and recorded this song and I'm using "ditty" in its original meaning here.

Can't believe this needs to be said but there goes one more thing AI is ruining

Ha, it would make sense for AAS to be the most likely candidate for this. Looks like this is what Collision in Ableton is based on. I'll try to find some hi-hat examples from this then. Thank you!

I'm surprised no audio plugin developer has cracked the code on physically modelling hi-hats yet. Is sample based stuff like Superior Drummer still the best there is on the market?

After a fruitless 4 days of writing lyrics first and thing trying to compose around that I failed miserably.

Today I started something new and finished it. Music, lyrics, vocals and all. Mix is a bit crowded but lyrics actually mean something for once ๐ŸŽ‰

Been making music all week and only just realized I could put the keyboard _under the desk_ when it's in standing position. No more awkward 90ยฐ turns or banging the bass guitar's headstock against stuff in a tight space.

Bonus points for getting me to stand more in general.

Does music count for #screenshotsaturday if you're making a #rhythmgame?

This demo is very loosely inspired by an Everything Everything song. I wanted something at a moderate tempo that still had that rushed feeling to it, as well as some borrowed chords.

what jazz sounds like to people who don't like jazz
YouTube video by GrogFM what jazz sounds like to people who don't like jazz

I've been obsessed with this channel lately. High effort, low quality.

I went through the same thing a couple of weeks ago. Honestly wasn't as painful as I expected, so I should've ditched chrome a long time ago.

1 more done but needs lyrics
1 more close to done but needs guitar solo
1 more in the works but it's really challenging
