Finally in bed after not sleeping all night working on that track. Is turning out nicely. Initially I did a more trancey thing but didn't like it and somehow it evolved into this sort of Berlin School thing, but is sort evolving into being more trancey. There is no wrong way to do #ambient some […]

Hmm...not bad for a track, especially in a genre you haven't done in 20 years. Is it it cigar worthy? I think so. All tracks start off like shit. The Statue of David wasn't carved in a day. I for sure need Zebra though (*cough* it's only $100 *cough* waves his starving artist cup) #Music […]

Wow! Holy FUCK! Is there like a starving artist patronage #MutualAid thing or some shit, because I REALLY, REALLY need u-He's Zebra. I was sitting here going "okay, got a good sequence I'm happy with, now let's work on synth. Do I want trance-ey, or more Berlin School" SO I threw on the free […]

Okay. Nanny is in bed. FDC coffee in the French Press, teddy bear blankie in the dryer, candles and incense, and Hrolf says we're ready to make #Music. Don't let ANYONE tell you that you need a huge studio with lots of gear to make cool stuff. I used to have a […]

Another thing is...you CANNOT get these old farts to drink water. I do not treat myself to my nice FDC coffee in the evenings until I complete my 2500ml water intake suggested by the European Food Safety Authority. I'm a #millenial. We're the water bottle baby generation. "You need to drink some […]

My grandmother *shakes head* So I wanted to tidy my room before I go balls to the wall on this track before she goes to bed (and I can relax), and...she broke the vacuum....again. So my Papa, was a great man, but very much a man of his time. And in the 50s people said "A nice vacuum means a […]

This is kinda a cool track! Not too bad for not producing trancey type stuff in almost 20 years. Some kid once asked "how do you make those cool trance sounds", like the arpeggios. Super awesome ultimate answer? Piano lessons. Seriously. All they are are cords in a certain key placed in a cool […]

Im kinda excited to try my hand with #ambient #house again. Very nostalgic for me. Because back then everyone was doing things with trackers. And they conned their parents into buying Macs and #amigas for "education". I did my shit on a Mac Classic. And when I started actually making money, my […]

#Apple Tahoe 26.2 is the most infuriating piece of software. If I clean, and my audio interface gets unplugged, I have to pat my head, chew gum and grab my dick to get Tahoe to recognize it. Wasn't like that before! Rock solid on 26.1 >:(

LOL. So I go to the gas station to pick-up smokes for Nanny and get to the counter, and they're like "Knut! Anything else?" And there are 3 other regulars there, and this woman is like "Are you from the Netherlands?", and one of my neighbors is like "off to the mindfuck races we go" And I said […]

Wow buddy. That is a lot of mind fuckery there. For one, #Obama and #Biden never gave them money to build the nukes you _think_ they have that has NEVER been substantiated. That money was for economic redevelopment since, you know, we fucked them. The Democrats […]

#Europe has free-speech. Hell, women can walk around with their boobs showing in some places. You absolutely have free speech...you just can be a #nazi and say Nazi things. Do you know why they censor that? Because you should be a Nazi or say Nazi things. #News #Censorship […]

Somone clearly works for #SpaceX I'm an "expert" and the #Internet is exceedingly difficult to take down, especially these days. It looks like a plate of spaghetti. Do you know where that noodle goes? NEITHER DO WE! So it's a shake of a dice. And even Starlink can go down depending on who […]

Goddamn this guy is SO GOOD! I love him. He's Italian (of course, you can't make money on #Trance music in #US. If it doesn't sound like Oakenfold. The festival brats won't buy it). Ambient House music is a FUN genre to listen to and produce. I'm from Wyo. Local raves were rare, so we did house […]

Okay. Nanny is feeling better. So getting back into my groove. First thing first - a supersaw VST. When I was producing music like Infinite Reflections, I have a JP-8000 synth. Since I'm sorta a digital nomad trying to hit #Europe, my studio is now entirely Logic (because I fucking LOVE Logic) […]

Logic is warmed up, nice and toasty. Let's see if I can still produce that #ambient #house sort of stuff. Apple has this REALLY amazing plugin in Logic called Alchemy they acquired that is BADASS and does these really nice trance sort of things I've been dying […]

Yeah. I might try this again. I stopped producing stuff like this after a friend asked "why are you making music for teenagers", and I was 38 at the time, and I was crushed by this comment. I took it REALLY personally, and stopped producing. And then I discovered this Wardruna type stuff and […]

Hell yeah! This just came on my #Spotify, and I cannot stop listening to them. Makes me want to make some ambient house music, which I haven't produced that kinds of stuff in YEARS. But GODS this SO GOOD! #Music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqNPOWBJc68&list=RDMqNPOWBJc68&start_radio=1

Nanny is so cute. She's like "can I have a bottle of wine?" Woman, you're 80 years old. you can have cocaine for all I care. I'm not my mother. I don't tell people what they can/can't do, especially 80 year old people. #family

I'm reading my book about Odin, and there is a chapter of hospitality, which is still a VERY big thing in #Norway. And I'm the same way. it takes A LONG time to be invited to a #Norwegians home, but when they do, they offer you a beverage and food, etc. And if you visit my home, I do too. My […]

Bestemødre er besten! I hurt myself, in a kind of embarrassing way which nothing embarrasses a grandmother, and she's like "oh baby, let me make you a hot bubble bath. That will help" so I'm sitting in a salt bath with my Peppa pig bubble bath, with a new kind of energy drink she got me and […]
