162. What was I even doing writing this at 180? Sometimes it's really good to get some perspective away from the DAW and the sheet music and everything. π
Getting stuck while we're writing is a feature, not a bug. It's the point of the exercise. It's what happens when we are trying to express something we have not expressed before. That friction forces us to make the tools we need to understand and express it. Getting stuck is how we make meaning.
The game industry is a bit of a mess right now and itβs hitting all of us, but when things get bad, theyβre often toughest on marginalized folk.
So. @aiviwave.com and I are launching the Rising Star Patronage Project to support game composers & make great music!

I'm much more of a composer than I am... a musician, I guess? I don't play instruments very well overall. But I can competently play a riff I wrote a couple years ago on my electric guitar at a decent tempo now. It was written for 180 bpm but playing it at 150 is a new PB for me.
Aw, thank you! This is extremely sweet! I should do some more chiptune work, it's been a while since I've flexed that muscle. π

At this moment, when I have set up the simplest possible portfolio site, I remember the wise words of people on the Internet: anything worth doing is worth doing poorly.
Better to have a simple site with my demo reel and a selection of my releases than no site at all!
