A massive upheaval is going on in my life at the moment. I'm not ready to explain exactly what's happening, but in the meantime, please be patient with me. Thank you to everyone who has stuck around after all this time. ❤️
I'm ready to say what's been going on. Early this year, my mother was diagnosed with an unusually aggressive cancer. She's been in hospice for several weeks, and after a brief but hard-fought battle, she passed away last week. Thank you to everyone who reached out during this heavy period of grief.
Haven't booted this one up in more than seven years.

Torn on this record. Some collabs rock (Femtanyl, Frost Children), others don't (Quadeca). I guess the biggest issue is that, when aligned with maximalist hyperpop and electronica, Danny sounds like a feature on his own album. He isn't the focus here (though maybe that's the real point). #NowPlaying

I don't know what I expected from a collab between Charli XCX and John Cale from The Velvet Underground, but this song slays. This gothic noise direction is incredible. Terrifying stuff. youtu.be/Xgp7wlBfASA?...

Last repost: it's very interesting that Sony is airing a State of Play specifically for the East. I know hoping for Kingdom Hearts IV or Project Robot news is reaching, but damn, someone rescue my girls from PS4 purgatory and bring them to PC.

Take it from a guy who goes out of his way to find and experience new music whenever he can: online music communities are some of the most insufferable groups of mouth-breathers you'll find. Doesn't matter where you go: if you want "bitter Redditor" vibes from your music takes, you've won the game.

New Pupil Slicer album Fleshwork isn't as mathy as Mirrors or as warped as BLOSSOM, but this track goes so hard. pupilslicer.bandcamp.com/album/fleshw...

2026 Grammy nominations are out, along with the nominees for Best Video Game Score. I admittedly haven't played any of these games, so I can't push for anything specific here, but Wintory getting another nomination is good to see. Other than that, business as usual (with the emphasis on "business").

Something that's irritating about Nintendo always playing catch-up with their console tech is the abundance of ports of old games that get released on their systems, especially around launch. Hard to get excited about FF7 Remake on Switch 2 when it's been out on other platforms for so long.

I was working on my next video's script last night and I kept seeing a bunch of really hurtful posts about Youtubers from a bunch of people on this site. I kept saying to myself "I'm trying my best..." but it still felt very demoralizing to see such cruelty toward something I really enjoy doing.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor removed their discography from streaming services earlier this year and I never owned a physical copy of Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven. I'm a fake fan no more!

Sending love from across the blue sky to my friend Daniel Santos. He's continued to plug away on videos and he dropped a long-in-the-works analysis on Silent Hill 2 this week.

Thank you to all who offered condolences and other kind words in response to this announcement. I feel blessed to know that there are plenty of considerate and supportive people who are willing to offer a hand or ear. It means the world, now more than ever. ❤️

Playing it in 2025, I don't think Devil May Cry 1 has "aged badly." I think a lot of that comes from the perspective that Devil May Cry 3 substantially stepped things up on the combat and narrative side. I don't believe a sequel improving on what came before somehow makes the older game worse.
