Unfortunately, i had to adapt some use of A-I into my tech flow. It does make me feel like im losing my coding skills, like what was the point of my studies. Im in the dilemma but this makes me glad to say im a musician/creator 1st before technologist always. I dont use A-I for music writing

I built a small reverb VST plugin~ This was more learning experience for JUCE. I've tried to learn for years but dropped it multiple times. Claude helped me out, at least i can see working code! Built with: - JUCE - Pure Data - Heavy Compiler - Claude firahfabe.itch.io/reverb-me-up...

Question to the VGM cover musician community! Its been awhile since I've released on distribution lately. I use VGMdb to check for cover licensing, but I always avoided Nintendo titles, however, I decided to cover them now, but can't find OSTs on US releases, am I too late? Did i miss the window?

I volunteered at the #FPAC2025 Kapit Bisig at SoCal, filipino festival featuring culture, arts, music, dance, food, and more. Getting to see performances & works presented with traditional, modern, and fusion with the Philippine arts was inspiring to see coming from awesome artists.

Got to model & headshots new shirt designs for a photoshoot to showcase Elle Karayan's release. Anino Polo Shirt, a Filipino woven design, Anino translating to "Shadow" from Tagalog, "speaks to the echoes of migration, identity, and cultures that shape us." Salamat po Elle Karayan for having me! 🇵🇭

The Anino Polo Shirt is my family's story woven into clothing. Inspired by my journey to Ilocos Norte, where I traced the footsteps of her great-grandfather from the Philippines to Honokaʻa, Hawai‘i, this piece honors the quiet power of ancestral memory. The name Anino, meaning “shadow” in Tagalog, speaks to the echoes of migration, identity, and cultures that shape us.

After all these years, Soundrop's increase from $0.99 to $4.99 per track release. I wish I released more often in the past had I foresaw this. But also, when it came to VGM covers, they weren't possible with my selected ones 😓 Idk if I'll stick with it or try another service yet. Thoughts?
