Working on a new track called Easy Days, a Bossa Nova-inspired piece for my Visual Novel music pack. Still a work in progress, but I like where it’s heading.

I just bought Eventide Articulate, and I LOVE IT. I'd love to use this on some sound design stuff if I can get my hands on a sound effect library!

Dubrovnik is beautiful, and having these couple of days to decompress was sorely needed.

I haven't been on here much lately, but that's because I've been busy making an orchestral template for my own music and for the next project with Asatiir's Tales, and oh my days, orchestral templates take FOREVER to make, and I've spent so much time doing stuff as exciting as watching paint dry! 😮‍💨

The image is of a screenshot of the REAPER audio software, with tracks on the left hand side, and MIDI data on the right. The screenshot shows a template with over 100 tracks of orchestral instruments that I am building for future projects, as well as my own music.

This is what happens to a cucumber when you go on a shopping trip in December, and proceed to forget about said cucumber in your rucksack for two months. Thanks, ADHD! 🫠 (Thankfully, the plastic wrap protected the rest of my bag's contents from succumbing to a watery grave.)

A yellowed, rotten cucumber sits on my kitchen counter, still in its plastic wrap, having been forgotten about for a whole two months after a shopping trip I made in December. Pray for me and my ADHD.

I never wanted to get Soothe2 because I don't wanna spend a lot of money on one-trick-pony plugins. But Pro-Q 4 is becoming such a Swiss Army Knife of an EQ plugin that I might just have to save up...

MUSIC TRAIN 🚂🎶 I've recently finished a composition course in which I had to write something every week. During the orchestration module, I wrote this piece. I'd love to get real players on this someday, such as @abbytheoboist.bsky.social. Her tone and dynamic control would be amazing on this!

OK, I've enabled adult content and your pic is *still* blurred. I really don't know what the deal is now.

I can see (and reply) to this post, but I see your profile picture as a grey circle right now. (I have adult content disabled.)

You probably have your “adult content” filter disabled. It’s still blurred for me…

@skyfeed.xyz Hi, thanks for providing the Mutuals feed! However, I'm having a problem using it. I'm getting the following error. Is there something wrong, or is there something I need to do to fix it? Thanks.

An error message from the Mutuals feed on Bluesky. It says: "Message from server: pipethrough network error".

The other platform I'm active on seems to be on the brink of an implosion, so I'm going to be more active on here from now on. I'm a composer who mainly writes orchestral and rocky stuff, JRPG- and anime-inspired stuff. I am open to commissions and projects too! Pleased to get to know you all 😁

In honour of the release of the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection, I recently remastered one of my favourite character select themes, from X-Men: Children of the Atom. 90s Capcom games (and 90s games in general) were and are some of my greatest stylistic influences. #marvel #capcom #mvc #xmen

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #5,007,774! Not as impressive as some, and I'm a bit gutted I was so close to being the 5,007,777th user... but whatever. Anyway, glad to be here! Follow if you want to keep up with my musical things, and message if you want me to write music for you!

So, I've been listening to a lot of DIMENSION lately. It probably shows... (Scored in Dorico, sequenced in REAPER using the Korg M1 plugin.) #jazzfusion #dorico

There’s a drink in Europe called Inka (made in Poland), which is a nice Ovaltine (or instant decaf coffee) alternative. Maybe you can find something similar where you are?

Inka cereal-based drink in a red can. Use as an alternative to instant decaf coffee or Ovaltine.

Now that Bluesky finally has video, here's a little snippet of a work-in-progress track I'm writing for the Curse of the Mantle by Asatiir's Tales! #gameboy #music #chiptune #gameaudio

Currently working on the next track for Curse of the Mantle... and since Bsky still doesn't support video, I'm gonna just have to post a GIF!

Going through some old projects and found some video game transcriptions I was working on... It's been ages since I transcribed some video game music and I miss doing it. Hopefully after I finish the composition course I'm on, I can pick the habit back up!

Screenshot of REAPER showing a transcription I started. It shows the first part of the Stage 1 theme for the arcade game Final Fight.

Also, check out the app Magnet. It allows you to position windows just by dragging them to hotspots on your screen or using a keyboard shortcut. As long as apps don't take up too much screen space, I can even have two apps side by side to get dual-monitor productivity from a single monitor.
