As expected but still always manages to surprise me, The Midnight blew it out of the water with Syndicate. 17 tracks in full sync from top to bottom. You HAVE to listen to this one in order at least one time. The Afterglow couplet is a particular highlight.

as if my 2025 wasn't stacked enough - this goes right to the top. ty rami and @aesthetic.games !
It's been a while.

Glad to be announcing a new game, and happy that it is something experimental and weird: a tiny, tense, turn-based strategy game about merging units into spectacular combinations, and then watching them evaporate thousands of bugs.

Don't forget graphic designers/typographers! I didn't study letterpress for 2 years to have my writing assumed to be AI.
Stop spreading this garbage about em dashes in ACTUAL EDITED PROSE OH MY GOD.

Plenty of actual human beings know how to type em dashes! We’re called “writers” and “editors” — maybe you’ve heard of us?

EP #2 on the way. See you soon.

5 years later, I still feel these things but I am equipped with better tools now. I wanted this version of Valinor to feel wistful, nostalgic. In both good ways and bad. Because I have my good days and also my bad ones. If Valinor is truly about the act of journeying, then I have so much more to do.
June 29, 2025 at 3:17 AM
I wish I understood then what I do now about failure, grief, and guilt. At the time, this song represented my desire to desperately understand what I could feel but not address. Valinor is what got spat out instead.

Valinor (Intimate) will be streaming everywhere on 07.31.25. It’s been 5 years since I put out my first tiny little EP. I said that Valinor, as a song, was about the act of journeying. That’s true. But it’s about more than that.

we do it because people did it before us. we self select into that responsibility because we know no other way

if people didn’t make the art we loved, nor us for ourselves and others - how else would we know who we are?

it’s cyclical and our responsibility to spin; to churn
June 21, 2025 at 4:47 AM
i've always thought making art was an act of defiance. it takes audacity to create. the world has what it needs to keep spinning, nothing i make will change that.

and yet

Fourteen Thousand.

The long campaign to dehumanize Palestinians is, fundamentally, about this. To provide cover for the annihilation of a people and their culture, from the youngest to the oldest, to shrugs from the most powerful nations in the world.
