FINALLY fixed my car speakers! My old one (pictured) got corroded from the sun, made sure to put on grill covers this time! Thing was about as brittle as a potato chip by the time we went to uninstall it for the new ones.

RIP X2, wish I got to ride ya Can't say I'm surprised about it's closing though, it needed a retrack a decade ago tbh. Another probably won't get built ever given the controversy, even though the other two installations have been issues free since construction. :(

Here's Lrod slamming down it's quad down. Once again still running a lil slow as it opened late, but still. Love this thang, so glad my park has an RMC with such a world class element

Dollywood was awesome yesterday! Busier than expected as it was Dolly Day *and* there was a 5K going on, but we got plenty of rides in regardless! Lightning Rod opened at 4pm just as I gave up hope it would open. Got 2 back to back rides because of the short line!

This is a good looking waveform, right? A good and proper mastering?

Whelp, guess they did. ... It's not going to Kings Island or Carowinds though. Still calling that.

Oh my God Arieforce One is NOT going to Kings Island OR Carowinds. I will eat my left shoe if it does. They don't have a good spot for it and it would be better served elsewhere. Hell I don't even think Six Flags bought it, they're not doing great financially to make this move.

Super sad I couldn't make it to Arieforce One one last time, but I'm glad I got the 5 laps I have. Godspeed to my #2 credit, really hope it finds a new home so I can log some more laps. O7
That's me in the second row!!

Here's that lost MIDI in action btw. So fucking glad I was able to track down those old backup project files, this is a Huge boone to my effort to finishing this album.

Railan (formerly Pika) @pika.turnbacktolife.com · 26/07/2026
Alright I just spent the past few hours hunting down old versions of project files and grabbing what I *thought* was lost MIDI and synth patches and. I've gone back to the SECOND version of Title Song... which has gone through like 6 versions at this point. This is the final track list.

Mannnn I don't think I'll be able to make it back to Arie Force One before it closes in early August. I'd really love to get a few more laps on it but financially I'm pretty drained. Guess I'll just have to wait until it gets relocated (HOPEFULLY FINGERS CROSSED PLEEEEEEASE)

Oh my GOD I got some Stems back from a collaborator for that track I posted earlier today and it sounds so COOL! Just got em mixed together, but I'm not gonna spoil how they sound with my piano and vocals yet :3 Def gonna add some front end percussion too, help drive it a bit more forwards

Speaking of music stuff, here's a WIP of the penultimate track! This was actually the first full song I wrote in 2018, so it holds a Very close and special place in my heart. Hope the rest of the production can do it justice!

Went to six flags Georgia today, had an Excellent time! And then I got the strangest sense of Deja Vu. Oh yeah, My caliper failed and let my brake pad slip out after I stopped for some coffee on my return home. Again. How the fuck does this happen. I can't afford this shit dude

And to those curious to see how my ranking stacks up now, here she is! Orion enters my top 5 and Diamondback enters my top 10! Banshee fails to overtake afterburn as my favorite invert and The Beast beats out Mystic Timbers. Going back to Carowinds this month and next I'm hitting Holliday World!
020
Railan (formerly Pika) @pika.turnbacktolife.com · 05/05/2026
Banshee was way better in my memory. Still properly intense but not nearly as scary. Demonic knot was hype and that last in like twist was trippy. Flight of fear had the best theming in the park, but the worst ride ops by a wide margin. Great launch, jank track, full stop on the Mid Course.
120
Railan (formerly Pika) @pika.turnbacktolife.com · 05/05/2026
People complaining about Diamond Backs roughness are weird. Amazing sustained airtime, best B&M Hyper I've ridden Orion is so fucking over-hated. Fury 325 is better but fuck this is good. Weird pot holes in the valleys but eh. Love the elements, new #3 of all time. (2/3)
120
Railan (formerly Pika) @pika.turnbacktolife.com · 05/05/2026
So TLDR of my Kings Island trip report The Beast was way better than I remember. Actual floater on the first camelbacks and that last helix is crazy. Great track work by Gravity Group! Mystic Timbers is overrated. Thunderhead was better. She's a great woodie but still (1/3)

Oh shit I forgot to tell y'all I WENT TO CAROWINDS AGAIN LAST WEEKEND!!! WITH A FRIEND!!! Slowly getting them into coasters. Got em to ride Thunder Striker! And they asked to ride it again!! 100% gonna go back this fall. Fury 325 is just as incredible as ever.

Chat I could probably be the lead singer in a JMPB Cover band. Been feeling WAYYYY less strain in my high end recently, especially on those closed E's like on "(...) be an easy way out". 'Course these vocals are unprocessed and dry but y'know.
