short term nostalgia feels so weird. i.e having nostalgia for things less than 10 years ago

like, there are certain pockets of otherwise shitty years that i find nostalgic. even a few months ago can feel partially nostalgic

does anyone actually call 21st century the 2000s. people often confusingly use early 2000s to refer to 2000-09 but i dont see as many call the entire century the 2000s

been thinking of getting one of those retro game handhelds. i find it difficult to concentrate when i play games on my PC (am i insane for this), and playing emulators on my phone isn't fun

wonder why jazz chords can often evoke a weird sense of nostalgia. its so difficult to pinpoint

a friend once said my music had nostalgic vibes, and i can see what they mean lmao

i would very much love to be a blogger (as long as i had an audience) but then i'd get anxious and self-conscious about yapping and stop

29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

if you ever feel bad about yourself at least you aren't one of my classmates who used chatgpt to write an entire essay and scanned it with four AI checkers

vince dicola going from composing for movies like rocky iv and transformers to indie games is an insane pipeline

god i'm still so indecisive but. maybe in the future i should push myself harder as a freelance composer. maybe after uni i'll go the route of having a day job then doing music on the side and hoping eventually i can go full time

sometimes i make music thats intended to create a certain vibe without necessarily being technologically impressive or up to "modern standards". i fret i'd be seen as lazy lol
