Hi, Chloe here, these aren’t newly added but they’re artworks that are still available. Sales have slowed. Just thought I’d mention these as people seemed to like them. Reposts are much appreciated as ever.

Now there's a sight I haven't seen in far too long - everything's unpatched! Yes, this means I finally recorded the piece.

Yes, my rack layout sucks.

Yes, having it all on such a low table with two of the synths underneath is really bad for my back.

Well, no recording this weekend. I do have the piece dialled in, for better or for worse (it has its moments but is not going to be a masterpiece), but ran through phone battery attempting to record a clean take, then realised it's 1 AM and I have work today (and wife & baby coming home)

OK, so imagine this, but like... better mixed and without so many timing errors. Not what I was intending to record but I think I'm on to something worth revisiting later

My favorite thing about Bluesky is that it has recaptured the old social media experience of:

"I made a cool thing!"

"I like your cool thing! I also make a thing."

"Thank you. Your thing is also very nice! Someday I may try to make that thing."

If anyone with a dance mat for PC fancies testing this out, gimme a shout and I'll hook you up! 💖
Haha YES it works! 😍

My new album is suuuuuper influenced by DDR so screw it, gonna include the files so people can play a track from it in Stepmania (which is free)

This is a rough test, I'll have it properly cooked soon 💖

OK FINE I'M CHEATING

Recording the two layers of talkbox vocal loop onto my SP404 ahead of the rest of the jam, because juggling a microphone, rubber tubing around my neck, and a "keyboard" made of microswitch buttons is just too much at the same time as everything else.

Just buying some nice unsold original arts

Letting the gear (and room) warm up while I go for lunch. I think the Boog might actually be more drifty than my Erica Synths DIY VCO - don't know whether that's a testament to Behringer's cheapness, mki's design skills, or if real Minimoogs were that bad

Hey! You there! Musician! In need of artwork for an upcoming single or artwork? Want to stand out but are you on a tight budget that you'd rather spend on VST's, synths or mastering?
I've got tons of designs that you can license for a friendly price with or without text or adaptations to your taste.

Maybe Friday. After which I intend to keep things smaller - ideas I can explore in a couple of hours, bigger projects staying in the DAW.

(With bits recorded from the modular, absolutely, but no patching entire pieces at once. Gums up the works and prevents me being able to just go in and noodle.)
So, uh, yeah... Over a month later and I still haven't recorded the piece I had patched up here. It's somehow grown even more complex since then. I still want to do it, but time continues to be against me...
Am I even a musician any more? Was I ever?

New hobby: referring to any event that took place before the year 2000 as having happened "in the 1900s"

Well sadly my three baby free days ended up more like one, in two halves. So you won't get to hear any of this quite yet. But I've used all bar three of my patch cables and almost every module in the rack to get this next live track going.
