As someone who has spend too much money on virtual plugins and effects thinking it would improve my work, do not buy anything you don’t need. I have thousands of plugins I’ve bought or downloaded for free that I never use.

A friend of mine talked about how he switched over from mixing stuff in his DAW’s mixer to mostly using clip gain and volume automation for mixing. I saw the idea and agreed that, sure, it works in concept, but feels a little scrappy and unprofessional. I’ve noticed, this is just how I work now…

Feel like now that Riptide is over, I’m settled into my new job, and I’m not sick anymore, I can finally get back to working on stuff. Have a couple projects I’m working on with others which are pretty cool, and some ideas for my own stuff that I should actually start.

I was gonna be proactive and get them early after last year, but holy fuck…

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 14/09/2026

Sorry for not being around too much yesterday at Riptide. I was bedridden and feeling awful. Would have loved to say hi to more people this year, but I was so busy.

My early spec cam sets felt good. I started getting tired later on and missed some good plays. I am curious to ask again if the community has shifted more towards liking overhead cam or individual players perspectives being featured more in a game, ratio-wise.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 10/09/2026

How to be busy at a LAN year after year while never competing ever? The amount of volunteering I’ve agreed to lol. So, I’m not going to bring my own equipment to record stuff for fun this year. I want to spend quality time with people in between obligations.

For transparency for those how still use the former bird app, I unfollowed everyone, unliked all posts, and removed all my posts and reposts. Nothing personal, just leaving them nothing. Keeping the account so no one takes it or something.

I just realized the the only EP I ever made becomes 10 years old next month. Crazy

Oh, I finally understand why the doppelgänger and Observation Duty/Exit 8 style horror is popular rn… I’m so dumb for not seeing the connection….

Busting out the soldering iron to fix my old DJ controller. God, it feels so good to repair stuff yourself lol

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 23/07/2026

Thinking about how DJing left the underground hip-hop and electronic music scene to become a wildly different performance today in the mainstream that makes many people even question its validity as an art form.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 15/07/2026

Having a weird nostalgia for chunky hardware. Reject slim and sleek. Give me some chunk with some charm to it.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 14/07/2026

I wasn’t expecting 100 downloads in a little over a day and hitting over 200 downloads so far. Thanks for downloading the sound pack. I’m happy that our work will live on. Never stop creating.

A set of line graphs showing the daily downloads and page views for the Project: Eden’s Garden Sound Library. The graphs show a total of 615 page views and 201 downloads spiking on the release date and tapering off over the past two weeks. Both graph shapes are very similar.

Imagine I started DJing in between sets of SoS

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 01/07/2026

I’m happy the PJEG sample pack got over a hundred downloads in just over a day. Feels good to put out something for people to just use as they want. I hope the sounds get used in more projects so that they can get more mileage.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 30/06/2026

Here's a FREE DOWNLOAD to EVERY sound asset made for Project: Eden's Garden. Made by me and @kaszroe.bsky.social . This library is royalty-free without attribution, and you can use it in any personal or commercial projects. Link in replies. #PJEG

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 29/06/2026

I should have this up tonight or tomorrow. I'm just renaming files to make them compliant with the UCS standard and not just "footstep_v3_FINAL.wav". This library will be royalty free and require no attribution. You will be free to download it for free and use it in basically any creative work.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 29/06/2026

I am officially motivated and working on organized all the files together to release the Project: Eden’s Garden Sound Library, including nearly every sound used in the game made by me and Rowan. I’ll have it up somewhere as a free download sometime this week, I promise.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 25/06/2026

Where does everyone keep getting this one stock spotlight sound effect? I’ve heard it so much and it bothers me every time I hear it. It’s like my own personal Wilhelm scream or metal pipe sfx. Idk where people find it and why it’s the only stick spotlight sound anyone uses.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 20/06/2026

I can say that it was TADC now, but I think you could have assumed this. Still reeling btw

I love how I only watched one NBA game all season. I picked the right one, I guess lol

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 08/06/2026

Been having a rare occurrence when a piece of media directly points a finger at me and says “This. This is you. You are this and this is what happens when you are this.” A life-shattering mirror put directly in front of you showing you everything. I’ve actually just been spiraling nonstop since.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 24/05/2026

I mention this in my WIP spectator/observer cam doc I’m writing for comp Splatoon 3, but ever since I’ve set the rule for myself of having Alpha Team on the left side of the screen and Bravo Team on the right side, it bothers me when people don’t do it and just start spinning freely around the map.

120

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 22/05/2026

I’m reading through 60 page Google Docs and listening to interviews with observers in other esports and I’m learning very quickly that the Splatoon comp scene for production is so behind. I’m learning so many ways these games are presented that are just a given elsewhere that we have never tried.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 21/05/2026

Not me listening to podcasts with Valorant observers…

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 19/05/2026

The extra time I’ve had has been allowing me to come up with some neat ideas. I really need to write more and take time to work some of these out, because I haven’t had the chance to actually make something for myself until now

030

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 04/05/2026

Imagine VOD reviews but for spec/observer cam for Splatoon 3 comp matches I had motivation to work on that resource I was making for people wanting to get better at doing that. Might work on it while I’m on my sudden vacation.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 27/04/2026

I like streaming Splatoon tournaments hehe

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 26/04/2026

Now that Project: Eden's Garden is officially cancelled, I'll take some time to make a sound pack of the audio from the game (that I'm allowed to) and put it out for the community to use how they wish. It will take me some time so please be patient.

070

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 03/04/2026

On a personal note, it really sucks that the one thing with traction and a following big enough to turn heads and give your work a reputation and potentially kickstart your career can just go away overnight. 5 years of work and we only made it so far.

191

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 02/04/2026

As it currently stands, I’m stepping away from Project: Eden’s Garden as Sound Lead. Thank you to everyone who played the game and complimented the audio work our team poured into it. Your support kept me going. But as everything has unfolded today, I will not associate myself with evil people.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 02/03/2026

I streamed 73 Splatoon games this weekend.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 01/03/2026

8 hours live streaming two Splatoon events does something to you, man…

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 28/02/2026

Doing the SendouQ Finale and LUTI Tonight streams today (wish me luck), and I’m reminded that I wanted to do a behind-the-scenes video at some point of streaming events from home. Like an over the shoulder camera view of me scrambling behind my computer and communicating with comms on breaks.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 09/02/2026

Thank god, I don’t think I could handle the Pats taking the lead in Super Bowls won.

Saw Iron Lung yesterday. After years of keeping up with the progress of the movie, it’s everything I’d hoped it would be and more. Suspenseful film with the cosmic horror vibe I love. Very excited that it’s finally out and I got to see it. I’d give it a 4/5 for me personally.

If I had a nickel for every time the Steelers brought in someone to the organization that beat them in their last Super Bowl appearance to be in a significant role for the team, I’d have 2 nickels. … You know the bit.

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 13/01/2026

And with the Steelers out, in honor of my partner… Let’s go, Niners!

For a season I was more interested in because of the entertainment value of watching Rodgers, not even because I like him, but because I don’t, I can’t say it wasn’t entertaining at points. But can we please just try to make a solid team rather than expecting stale stardom to get us wins.

Last year, I didn’t track what albums I listened to and my thought on them, here’s my lazy top 5 2025 albums 1) choke enough - Oklou 2) Mayhem - Lady Gaga 3) private music - Deftones 4) Getting Killed - Geese 5) ADDHERALL - FEM&M

Okay, I wasn’t expecting this response, so I’ve started typing up some stuff, idk how long it will take but it’s gonna be LONG. I’ll probably put out a doc when it’s done and then start working on a video version to better show examples later.

020

Justin @pipedreamdx.com · 24/12/2025

I have the motivation to make a resource for spec cam for comp Splatoon 3 that goes more in-depth with how I approach it since a lot of people have praised my style. This would not replace boing’s or ely’s resources, but more be an expansion on those ideas with more I haven’t heard mentioned.
