Hello Hyenas, Sorry about my lack of activity, I've been rather busy with school as of late. I'm starting to get back in the swing of things and working on new tracks (Go look at my Fur Affinity page for a freebie/scrap and some more art.) I'm getting a bit more equipment and software so expect to hear a few experiments and more work on my personal sound. Prepare to plug your ears.
I have a redux of one of my songs and a remix of a Linkin Park song. They were both really fun to do.
Anyways I've got more schoolwork to do this week so I'll be trading off between that, my comics, and music. Don't worry hyenas there'll be more work done on YCFA180BPM by the end of the week.
A whole week went by and I didn't post. I was definitely working, in fact I've been so busy I haven't been able to post. I've been doing alot of image work (that is figuring out what Broken Playthings' image is.) I also was playing around in live professor with effects for my guitar and vocals. I'm working on a few things today. There may be some freebies and previews of YCFA180BPM.
I ran into this song yesterday and I think it's awesome
(Psst the album (Black Sails at Midnight) would be a great birthday gift for me.)
I FSCKed a chunk of the songs for YCFA180BPM and made the drums and synths for it. Everything sounds so evil, I love it! I'll work on it more during the week.
In other news, my birthday's in 10 days now!
And in yet more news, I've got a job interview on Thursday, but I'm not holding my breath. Sure my application got accepted, but I'm very different in person. Either way expect me to do some sort of venting scrap this week. That means you hyenas get some free pretties.
Today/Yesterday got really crowded with puppy patrol, but I swear I'm gonna work more. "A Star is Born" got FSCKed today. Anyhu the title says there's a cool DJ mix, and here it is:
Seriously, I'm just really busy. I promised you guys I'd work on YCFA180BPM this weekend, and I just started to. All the files have been converted to WAVE format, now I'm gonna go eat breakfast and start working on fscking each and every one of them.
Prepare to plug your ears.

Still working on "Zip it and Ship it" so far it sounds good. I need to finish lyrics for it, once that's done I'll record vocals. My music is really starting to sound like Angelspit which is ok, cause I like their stuff, but I need to find my own sound.
Prepare to plug your ears.

Wow there must've been something wrong with me when I said I was almost done with Vandalized Fairytale. I'm gonna drop it for a while before I try it again.
Well The album version of "Vandalized Fairytale" has all been recorded and I just need to come back to it tomorrow to get the mixing all finished up. I'm working on lyrics for other songs. On that note I'm really not sure how I feel about lyric writing, I love it because it lets me get my feelings into words, but I hate it because it's so tedious and structured. On a another note I'm gonna get more of YCFA180BPM done this weekend. I expect to have it finished before the summer's over, and plan to release it by All Hallows Eve/Halloween. Don't worry there'll be freebies and scraps along the way for you hyenas.
So I'm almost done with getting this computer in a usable condition. Just backing up some things in a few places and waiting for my soundcard to come Thursday. once all that's done I'll start working on YCFA180BPM, until then I'll be writing lyrics for my original album and writing down melodies.
On a completely different note, I hate summer. I can't wait for fall, I just love fall and winter, nice and cold (also the colors in fall are amazing.) now what made me think of fall and winter? Well this picture by Tom (Motts) Kirsch.
My comic is about ready to be scanned and I'm experimenting with some new synths. expect some art, freebies, and samples.
This totals to $1345. I'm saving up for this along with trying to get a job that I can make rent with be able to eat so I can move the fuck out. Now you may be asking yourself "Why the hell should I care?" I respond with "because you like my music and/or art" which is the same reason you're reading. So please ask for commissions, I'm willing to haggle if you think I'm asking too much. Just so people know, I also dabble in circuit bending and effect building, so if you're willing to pay for parts up front I'll make stuff for you!
So I got a pretty lame virus on my laptop. Seriously it's lame, when I try to start up it says "Password:_" not anything cool like "Hey, I don't like you so why don't you tell me something I want to hear?_" Anyhu, this means that there have been a couple of changes to my plans. First change: I don't have the time right now to do that remix of "Love Will Find A Way" because I'm transferring all of my backed up files to this computer. Second change matters more: The lineup for "Your Childhood fscked at 180 BPM" is now:
1. Mickey Mouse March - The Mousketeers 2. Friend like me - Aladdin 3. Beauty & The Beast - Beauty & The Beast 4. A Star is Born - Hercules 5. The Bare(Bear) Necessities - The Jungle Book 6. Hakuna Matata - The Lion King 7. Under the Sea - The Little Mermaid 8. Chim Chim Cher-ee - Mary Poppins 9. Colors of the Wind - Pocahontas 10. Winnie-the-Pooh - Winnie The Pooh 11. Heaven's Light/Hellfire - Hunchback or Notre Dame 12. Some Day My Prince Will Come - Cinderella 13. The Sorcerer's Apprentice - Fantasia 2000 14. (secret)
Well I'd better get back to work on uploading to this comp.
This weekend I'm planning on making a practice fsck of "Mickey Mouse March" and figure out the bpm and some of the notes of "Love Will Find a Way." Expect a freebie and (at least) a preview. Prepare to plug your ears.
Alright so I've got five quick things. One, here's the track listing for Your Childhood fscked at 180 BPM:
1. Mickey Mouse March - The Mousketeers 2. Friend like me - Aladdin 3. Beauty & The Beast - Beauty & The Beast 4. A Star is Born - Hercules 5. The Bare(Bear) Necessities - The Jungle Book 6.

Fourth, go check out How to Destroy Angels they're an awesome band, and I'm loving their stuff.
Fifth, I'm starting work on a comix series called "Bye it Nao!" it's gonna be alot of fun.
I'm going to start an album titled "Your Childhood FSCKed at 180bpm." It consists of Disney songs that are fscked to oblivion, and layered with an industrial beat.
