The first video of this weird album project is complete! And of course it might be the weirdest one!
Here's "froghorn.exe," a video that I made because I can't stop clicking on videos that are less than a minute long of weird little guys made in Blender. I talk more about this in my "making of" video, but here's my addition to "videos that...
2024-04-16 00:16:29 +0000 UTC View PostI have already ignored my rule of only recording for 10 minutes/editing for 50 minutes because I am simply TOO EXCITED ABOUT SUMO. I LOVE SUMO. SUMO IS PROBABLY 80% OF WHAT I THINK ABOUT ON A DAY TO DAY BASIS. It's been so great to completely lose myself in a sport that I didn't know a single thing about at the beginning of this year.
Than...

Let's hop right into it, shall we?
Hey hey, sorry for taking a little longer on this post! I had to figure out how best to export stems from Ableton, since this is the first real-ish song I've produced in that program. Nice!
Here's the full scam song and all of the stems, too! Feel free to remix it however you want. That's a funny thing to say about a song that is meant to ...
2024-03-14 22:36:29 +0000 UTC View PostHey y'all! Remember how I said I wasn't going to post a video on YouTube until July? A new terrible development changed that!

Problemista is an A24 film, so it will (hopefully) become well loved. But since it just came out, I think it counts as underappreciated for the next few hours, so I'm brecommending it....

Hey Novelty Instrumentalists! It's been a minute since I've uploaded new music for you, but I've got TWO songs that were made during a new stream I've been testing (WTWYDYA: Watch This While You Do Your Art). The first is a cover of Cher's iconic "Believe," and the s...

Quite a lot this month! I finally did the Patreon refresh I've been talking about for years, and though things are still shifting around, I think we're settling into the new Patreon pretty well! H...

Happy New Year's Eve, everyone! We've made it through another full year, which means another probably-too-long-but-it's-the-end-of-year-so-I'm-allowed-to-wax-poetic PROGRESS REPORT.
Once again, I find myself with a blooper reel that is more than half the length of the main video. And thanks to the amazing editing of Jeremy (Nativebirds), it's just as powerful as the...

This has been a surprisingly big month, even though I didn't manage to get a video out! So I get to simultaneously experience the two emotions of "excited about the big things that have happened" and "guilty for being unproductive"! My favorite combo of emotions.
Hey y'all! I'm going to be setting up the shoot for my next cooking video, and I'm very excited about it.
It'll be fun to show you how I have to clean/light/set up cameras in a part of ...

iI's been a minute since I've had SO MANY AUDIO FILES to give you.
First off, it's the song! I think I managed to make it sound extremely karaoke-esque while still being catchy and enjoyable to listen to. The final piano part is Karen's playing—I wrote the music and then gave it to her to actually perform on a real piano so it would soun...

2023-07-31 17:23:43 +0000 UTC View PostHello folks! Since there's no video for August, I figured I'd give you a little sneak preview from the collab video I'm making with Tom Cardy.
I've finished all the main edits and need to go back in for a subtitles pass, but it's in good enough shape that I feel comfortable showing you the intro sequence of the video. There's still another...
