spent two hours with a wrench and a torch to try and figure out why my 6GHz calibration standard was dead. If it wasn't broken before it sure is now. Tiny little ceramic substrate PCB with two carbon traces that combine to make an extremely precise 50Ω load, and now unfortunately in two pieces.

For those unfamiliar, the NGADM is a yearly single elimination tourney where you have to write a new song from scratch every 2 weeks.

Trying something a little different with this song - it's a score to a story I've been reading, "Sovereign of Wrath" by MadMaxine on Scribblehub/Royal Road. Check out the description for download links & a full breakdown of the themes and sections.

I got the NI Session Horns library and wrote the world's simplest pattern to test them out. Things spiraled out of control after that.

This is still one of my all-time favorite tracks. I tried blending my orchestral and electronic stuff together and it worked way better than I expected.

One of the bigger projects of mine last year and something I'm still super proud of, an orchestral arrangement of Stranded by @redvoxband.bsky.social

I've always been a fan of the Red Vox song Stranded, and the idea for this one has been kicking around for two years at this point
