Since we've been so full of genAI nonsense lately in this VGM scene, today I wanna share with you how I made this double album artwork for the upcoming "Viridian Citypop" album by @gamegrooves.com because it was super fun to make! (And also, as everything on the label, it was made by humans!)

Second Sanctuary as played at the @progxp.band Fallen Hero Players show at @magwestofficial.bsky.social and on our upcoming live album! Working on more licensed tabs from game scores and educational ideas for guitar if y'all have any!

Ahead of releasing two metal and-or symphonic-rock inspired projects.. Do folks on BlueSky like seeing #WIP and music production breakdowns, or just like keeping up with the end results? There's a ton of little nerdy neat things I'm learning and trying out if people are into it 👀

Enjoy our show at MAGWest? Just play guitar in general and want to learn some of my licks/riffs from arrangements? I'm beyond ecstatic to share the launch of Editions: Spotlight, licensed guitar tabs/sheets from cover community folks including 9 songs from Undertale and DELTARUNE Ch1-4! Learn em!

I'm SO excited to see the seventh iteration of this celebration, and one of its most special! Not sure how they booked Powerline last time but I'm sure there's going to be something spectacular next year 👀

Throwback to this massive Ocarina of Time album I have sitting from 2014-2016, tentatively titled "Hero of Time". Not a single track of this got released but I remember specific riffs and original aspects of the whole thing. Might crack open a few of these!

A list of 14+ songs from Ocarina of Time, arranged by Ro

Drew here to once again state unequivocally: GameGrooves fundamentally rejects Generative AI, and I do not care to debate this subject. We do not do it, we will not do it. If we find you use GenAI on any track that is intended to be released under our catalog, we will remove your track. Period.

This was incredibly special! Singing with my friend Lizz, accompaniments with 6 incredible players, and just taking a second to breathe between all the rock and metal. Truly when in the dark, things shift around, there's nothing more reliable than your friends and support.

Sometimes metal and rock engineering gets hyped up over $100+ plugins and precision approaches, and other times we load someone's IR of a microwave for ambient guitar patches. You just never know what it'll be next 😅

Thank you Barboza, and Seattle!!! For our first show during the bustle of PAX West I'm floored at the turnout and energy for @progxp.band @laceyjohnsonmusic.bsky.social and @8bitbrassband and can't wait for more 🤘

VGM friends, what companies have you had success with designing shirts and other merch such as CDs? I’m aiming to make a simple shirt with my logo on it but also maybe look into some more complex designs so I’m looking for manufacturers allowing for a bit more freedom in design placement

SEATTLE FOLKS ATTENDING THE BARBOZA SHOW w @progxp.band I strongly recommend purchasing your tickets at the door, as we were informed very late that there is a high service fee being incurred. We hope to put on a fantastic show and support the venue but did not want to incur high ticketing costs...

It's still unreal where I'm at now, after just moping a decade ago about wanting to get a band together. Juggling shows in motion, resting from amazing shows, about to play another show, announce more show, and crossing fingers we get future shows 🥵 Guess this is just normal?!
