This has to be one of the wildest weirdest promo buildups for GameGrooves next album but I'm enjoying myself 🍌🐵

And don't worry I'm eating this banana

Monkey% Donkey Kong Country run, where you gotta eat a banana doused in hot sauce every time I lose a level.
Who'd watch that 🦍?

For my birthday this year, this older Bollywood song's been trending for reasons 👀 and I thought it'd be fun to sneak a little DOOM in.. which turned into Bloodywood with shred leads.

Anyway this last year was incredible, challenging, and I can't believe I get to be as creative as I do today 🙏

Hey! Haven’t been on social media in a hot minute. People have a lot to say about MAGFest-

And so do I, I’m doing a number of workshops/seminars/panels at the XP stage this year! All having to do with video production and theory. Would love to hear if there’s anything y’all would like to hear!

Wonder what all of this monkey business is about 😏
Nov 14. Barrels will be smashed.. bananas reclaimed.. and Kongs let loose.

i think i singlehandedly got the @ropanuganti.com prog experience banned from magfest main stage because of this... sorry guys

anyways, who am i seeing at magfest this year? (in all seriousness, i'm incredibly grateful for the last 2 years i've gotten to play bass for 2 incredible main stage acts)

Alright more teasing because we're dropping things extremely soon, but @gamegrooves.com is in track processing phase AND promo preparations started. We have costumes, riff and solo teases, hilarity, memey trailers, and so so much heavy metal coming your way soon 😍

Stay tuned!!

So if I just wildly flailed around until a quick trombone holiday album was ready for this year’s season, would you uh…..listen to it?

(And I mean QUICK lol)

Really wish there was a pitch correction and re-timing software that also busted open my default browser all the time. Any suggestions 😜

Some days I'm overloaded then @allisonmartintrombone.com makes me a sick latte and I think of ridiculous video ideas, and it gets all better.

Also if anyone's really trying to be mad about who was or was not booked for main stage why don't we put that energy into exploring why 10 of the 13 acts are headed up by white men (and the remaining three are two white women and one POC) 🤔

Sometimes I forget that this year, I literally binged Blender/Unreal Engine 5 tutorials and managed 4-5 artists' with a AA/Indie studio daily to make a flippin April Fools video.. and then I see another video and get flashbacks to applying belly jiggle physics and tweaking scuba suits 😅

Jokes on you DST, I'm HAPPY to be up at 6:30 playing games while my cat flips out at the feeder.

Just a testament to the growth and evolution of @gamegrooves.com I believe the next project is the longest production cycle in GameLark/GameGrooves history! Collaborations, stem processing, editing live drums, blistering djent/thall drops, but it's mind blowing in execution and worth the wait!

The 2026 live show plans are getting super exciting, especially with matching themes. As I learn about more cons and nerdy fests around the country I'm formulating some REALLY cool show ideas 😈
There's really no longer just 1 awesome stage to strive towards
