is it just me or does nostalgia sometimes feel haunting? like... it's a lovely reminder of a pleasant time/perspective long past, yet it's persistently haunting that you'll never find it again. a snapshot of an era you deeply crave to return to, permanently out of reach.

anyway happy thursday LMAO

very frustrating that none of my favorite activities are reliably lucrative. could've been passionate about computer science or finance, but i'm cursed to be passionate about music and learning scottish gaelic instead

today's thing to overthink: to find work, what is the ideal ratio of "able to write music in any style/genre" to "having my own distinct artistic sound"

i love learning languages, but my own tribal language (yoruba) is probably the toughest that i've studied.

"ni" is a form of "to be", but "ní" means "to have" AND "in/at"

"mo" is regular "i", but "mọ" is "to know"

"n" is the negative form of "i", but "ń" is the present progressive tense marker

my teacher brain is infecting my artist brain

teacher brain: do thing in a way => develop habit
artist brain: write bad music => develop habit of writing bad music

i'm too afraid to make things because they might be bad!! i gotta write a ton of music and get better!!!

i've seen a lot of negativity on this in the past few years but i'm gonna be honest.....

i love "wonderful christmastime". it's one of my season faves. the synths are fun and it's goofy and it puts a smile on my face. forgive my whimsy

i always try to encourage myself to just yap on bluesky like i used to on twitter, and then i get nervous and don't do it LMAO

this takes a lot of inspo from animal crossing OSTs, btw!

- pop dominant voicings (sus11 or sus13 slash chords, e.g. Fmaj7/G or Bb/C)

- unresolved (often dominant function) chords sustained on weak beats

- tonicization/modal interchange, pedal tones

analyzing and writing it is so much fun...

arcangelo corelli - sonata da chiesa a tre, op. 3 no. 11 in g minor: ii. presto

i had a project back in college connecting baroque counterpoint and 8-bit vgm/chiptune music due to tech constraints! so i made this arrangement of a corelli trio sonata 🎻

Proud to have worked on the score, sound design, mix, and title theme for this episode of Animation Station at @shockwaveanimation.bsky.social!

I'm especially proud of the title theme; such a rewarding end product. Here's a little peek behind the scenes!

Feelin vulnerable; maybe others can relate to this:

My biggest artistic struggle at this point in my career is letting myself try. I'm deathly afraid to let myself create anything potentially less than my best work yet. 🧵 (1/7)

in hindsight i've realized that this meant "get an ssd next time"
tried to move my folder full of sound effects from ed edd n eddy into my external hdd and it made file explorer crash. not sure what this means
