Coming in 2019 - Bay 1 Studios recording and mixing services! https://www.instagram.com/p/BqbXTpfAYmd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=khbtztmq1l3q

Spent the past few days completely overhauling the control room down at Bay 1 Studios - it is not only way more spiffy LOOKING, but it also sounds dramatically better! Steps taken so far: 1) re-orient the room longways down the A-frame 2) rehabilitate 8 fiberglass absorption panels and hang them properly for first reflection points 3) modify two large acoustic office dividers into bass traps 4) make two compact bass traps out of fiberglass panels with a mass-loaded rubber core and position those appropriately 5) added a PreSonus studio subwoofer to the pair of Yamaha HS8 studio monitors 6) move the Monitor Station from the rack to the mixing desk, and wire it properly 7) drill a cable pass through the floor to the tracking room downstairs, and pass the snake through for a parch panel 8) add some chill lights for ambiance https://www.instagram.com/p/BqTT3meAMBW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=uea8zb76xgmd

Today we lost a giant. Rest in peace, web-slinger. 😓 https://www.instagram.com/p/BqF7NDGAYTs/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rputyogfmk6r

I’m not sire if being mildly OCD helps with the creative process, because it makes me meticulous about details, or if it hinders the creative process, because at the end of every work session I have to spend time arranging my work table until it feels ‘right’. 😅 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp64IW7gotu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=uwn07ptdkeun

Had a great meeting yesterday with NBC 29 and the local CW affiliate about a spring community outreach event involving the Vailix. About to take this thing to level 2!! https://www.instagram.com/p/BprUdSdgpCh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qd7srlbrtrg8

Fogwalker is starting to take shape! Breakthroughs yesterday: 1) creature encounter system, 2) salvage system, 3) crew member generation, 4) ship play mats, 5) map exploration. Next steps: 1) create generic crew members, 2) create some creatures for the crew to encounter, 3) MAKE THEM FIGHT!! 🤜💥🤛 https://www.instagram.com/p/BpmEKqdg-Ob/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19qpi3o8krslp

"With its fast gameplay and strong mixture of luck and strategy, players will find it addictive and be ready to change up the Disciplines in their builds and battle one another again. 84/100." - Jeff Provine, Card Game Review: ‘The Forevergone’ [blogcritics.org] https://www.instagram.com/p/BpZPoYtAvZV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ktk7abm4npr6

Not fully Vailix related, but three out of the five of us (Rob, Cory, and Jamie) also perform in a 90’s alt-rock cover band called Superunknown. Last night we had a good time down at @southerncville opening for Dude Ranch, a Blink-182 tribute from NYC. Here’s a lil clip, just for the fun of it! https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo3-pKNgJE2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10wu904bxq3a2

Every artist you know and love started somewhere as “that local talent.” Many of them would never have made it without the love and support from the people of their hometown. Please, when you see a local band, buy a ticket, buy their merch, sign up for their mailing list, follow them on Instagram — do your best to support your local artists!! They need all the love they can get!! https://www.instagram.com/p/Bol5r1KgTj-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1grax67meu4x6

We made a game. We’re pretty proud of it. We’re working on another game now! 😁👍 https://www.instagram.com/p/BogwxI6AfZ8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16lsreu585qoo

If you’d like to try a uniquely challenging, brilliantly written, absolutely addictive virtual experience (can’t really call this a game..), we’d like to recommend checking out “Cultist Simulator” by Weather Factory. If you liked “Fallen London,” or “Sunless Sea,” or even if you just enjoy immersing yourself in some Lovecraftian mystery, this will be right up your alley! Check it out! https://www.instagram.com/p/BoTVJ3igvC5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13qnu01kfvuer
