They really made Manhattan authentic in Resonant from how often I’m getting turned the fuck around in the train stations

Didn’t know how I felt about Resonant at first but I’m totally locked in now

Little bit worried that the water in my apartment is brown

Feels pretty terrible to have all the space to write and record music without purpose

I feel like gain staging could be automated at this point between effects and plugins in DAWs

Made 100+ architectural and electrical symbol vectors to use as micrographics and sci-fi visual texture in my own work.

Also packaged 'em all up and made them available to purchase via the Lunar Saloon Shop. lunarsaloon.bigcartel.com

Back fiddling with recipes. I have a Carolina pulled pork recipe in a place where I like it but I wanna see if I can make a fall/winter version since it’s such a summer thing. Maybe some rosemary and fennel seeds? Maybe fewer vinegar based additions too (mustard, pickles, etc)

Ryan’s been making a ton of great stuff lately.

If bands were timeline variants like the marvel multiverse, Ecca Vandal is a variant based on Tuntstile’s GLOW ON that leans evens harder into 90s hardcore with some aughts production touches

All I’m saying is that by the transitive theory, Elton John doing a Turnstile song means he’s part of the hardcore community

I thought leaving the south meant I’d leave inclement conditions but I moved to California with regular earthquakes and then moved to the northeast where I guess we get waterspouts but also an occasional earthquake?

West coast is something else, gosh.
