oh yeah re:playlists

sure I share my longass playlists with friends but that is generally if i have a pretty good idea of what they like or if they're looking for something new to listen to.

one bubbly and cutesy character may have a mostly J-pop and eurobeat saturated playlist while another may be kinda gloomy and edgy and have darkwave and industrial tunes. a 70s themed character will have 70s pop and rock (but especially prog rock lol)

but yeah. i tend to be biased towards electronic music in most cases but i do like supplementing with appropriately themed music.

music tastes can be very particular and I'm pretty picky about what i might get into. acoustic guitars are definitely one thing i am aggressively not fond of due to their overuse, but depending on how it's played, how the vocalist sounds, what the song is about may change my mind. but on most part, naw thank you. (looks at lutes in medieval and renaissance music) you're on thin ice.

edit: grabbing my tag novel from the previous post:

#i make playlists to listen to while i draw#i don't make them for some rando to try to get a read on my OCs asfdsag#that and idk i listen to mostly instrumental music#or songs with nonsensical lyrics#music to me is about The Vibes and not so much the meaning#if I was to find a perfect song to describe a character of mine it'd be weird because that is not how i listen to music#music#so yeah it's unlikely i'll try to make mixtapes anytime soon#oh yeah there's also the fact of like. the genres i like may not mesh with someone else's tastes#i ramble

#spoonblabs #music #i like music #i like creative and interesting music #top 40 type stuff puts me to sleep #puts on some nightmarish spiralling philip glass piece to detox #but mostly i like electronic music from all eras #jean-jacques perrey my beloved #tangerine dream my beloved #idk what jean-michel jarre is up to lately but keep on keeping on dude #rip vangelis and klaus schulze

I know this is just a silly bad quality random screencap of a screencap that I found on facebook lol, BUT it's a succinct enough image to easily describe the concept in a quick/accessible way hopefully :

-

(and of course, feel free to elaborate in tags, etc.! (especially elaborating about other senses as well.. can you "hear" in your mind just as well as you can "see"? taste? etc.) It's an interesting topic to me, as someone who's like a 4.5 at MOST lol. I'm curious what option will be the most common :0c )

#tumblr polls #hrmm... a little poll perhaps.. about a subject I find interesting.. since this image came across my facebook today #still really not feeling that well. no longer shaking violently and such but I still feel weird and weak much more than usual #They did say my markers for like infection or inflammation were elevated but that they werent sure of the cause so hopefully #it's nothing too serious. they did also say a lot of different things can cause that thing to be higher than normal but didn't go into spec #fics of what. maybe some of them are relatively benign or something. I still havent felt much back to normal since #I got really sick that one time though. I feel fine on and off but then little bouts of feeling weird and sick happen. hrmmm #ANYWAY.. looking for small ways to be productive. such as little doodles on evil ipad or editing game videos #or posting polls or cat pictures or some other like not very labor intensive things #I WISH I COULD FOCUS on writing HHRGGhh... I need to finish my game.. it would be so freeing.. a project that's been looming #over my head for like 5 years even though througouht that 5yrs I've probably spent a total of 3 months working on it lo.. ANYWAY #I still partially really cannot beleive that people CAN see stuff in their heads. There's always part of me that's thinking like. well mayb #e everyone DOES see the same exact thing but we just describe/conceptualize it so differently that we think we're talking about #different things when we're really not. But I have been assured by people I've talked to about it that they can GENUINELY really see #stuff in their heads like as vivid as an actual picture in real life or something. And the other senses are neat too. Like for exmaple I #can hear in my head much better than I can see imagery. I still CANNOT hear vividly like as if I were listening to actual music out loud..#but I think it's developed more than my sight. AND interesting how this varies the creative process. a friend I was talking to on the phone #said they write by literally just watching stuff play before them like a movie. where my process is COMPLETELY different. AND that affects #the content/what details we focus on as well as our individual styles of writing have differences that can be traced back to that.. hrmm

So I asked my irl friends to give me some outfit inspo for vocaloid designs and sorted them at random, it was pretty fun!☆

(I gave my friends lil pseudonyms since they don't really use tumblr)

+ bonus sketch of rin in one of the outfits from the reference friend S gave me by courtesy of friend A☆

#vocaloid #my art #virtual singer #hatsune miku #kagamine rin #kagamine len #megurine luka #kaito vocaloid #meiko vocaloid #having friends indulge me on my interest is great #yknow i didnt choose to draw kaito with high heels but hes slaying☆#it was fate #i did take creative liberties to add as many music stuff to the outfits #im surprised everyone sent very different pictures as inspo #i have other friends too... so maybe i could make a part 2 of these with like other voice synths...

I don't get why people hate the timeline so much, its not like you can't pretty much completely ignore it when you play the games. The only time it even approaches mattering to the story is when there is an explicit sequel like botw and totk or zelda and zelda 2

Hey sorry your ask got lost in the sauce of my broken tumblr, but: yeah!

I mean, I get why in some sense. It's been a heated point of debate and I think some people understandably resent the space it has taken not only in fandom discourse, but in how people began to understand the game and its narrative aesthetic choices. There is such a thing as over-rationalizing everything to hard logic, and sometimes it's just not the fandom for that --especially when you begin to forget it's all just fan theory and start to forget what the games are supposed to be like and evoke beyond just strict facts displayed in a linear way.

What I think bugs me with TotK in particular is that it both evokes and relies on continuity and the idea of a timeline, of archeology, of history itself, while being so loose and vacant with it that it both is doing Timeline Shit while also completely failing to understand why some parts of the fandom were invested in Timeline Shit to begin with.

But that's just my two cents of course!

#asks #tloz #timeline #totk critical #thanks for the ask!#I do... feel two ways about that myself #I think pure evocation is genuinely one of zelda's greatest storytelling strengths #that mood is sufficient and enough in itself and doesn't always need justification #it is the way the games center story --and that's genuinely wonderful and a strong take on narrative in games #as something freeflowing and accompanying gameplay rather than the opposite #and to ignore that and focus on hard facts all of the time kind of misses the point of the games' stories to a degree #BUT #I also get quite annoyed at the weird condescencion towards fans that do decide to engage with the stories more factually #especially since this is either revelatory regarding some of nintendo's choices #(that the aesthetics of evil are so tied to The Desert TM while taking so many inspirations from european fairy tales for example)#(it's not neutral even if we ignore ingame “lore”)#or just a great fodder for creativity and narrative play #and it is a part of the IP too!! just as much as dungeons and items and musics and curiosity-driven exploration!!#I do have beef with people not resonating with that aspect thinking others that do so are just stupid or childish #and that you can only have an enlightened relationship with zelda if you like it “the right way”#(which is somehow always mechanics/logic-driven which is. interesting to me.)#(or in a completely passively aesthetic way as in “I like fairies they're pretty”)#but you know it's the weird Triforce Shirt Dude stigma thing #that notion that you can (and must!) Love Zelda Deeply and Defensively #but you cannot be *passionate* about Zelda #then it's weird and immature #I don't know I feel like there's a lot to analyze in that arbitrary dychotomy #anyway sorry for the mega novel in the tags!!

it finally happened. i'm a fresh out the slammer convert. god damnit. like bitch?!?!?!?? okay you got me miss swift!!!!

#maybe the way this is her MOST obviously lana influenced song of all time like production wise and lyrically and conceptually #in a good way though #something clicked this time where i was like damn she's doing lana lite #even complete with the shift into an end of song bridge tonal shift like...... she really loves lana so much huh #like taste of course but damn it has never been clearer #anyway that all clicked in my head and i'm like wow ok slay boots #this is all said like lovingly like i don't mean this in a rude or mean way like #she loves lana and it shows in her influence of her music and i think it's a mode that taylor fits really well in #and served as a delicious evolutionary ingredient in her primordial stew of creativity #loving this experimental track i wanna see more of THIS #also a sucker for any time taylor calls her love interest pretty like akldfjaldksjfasdklfsfjadf WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM MEEE

thank god for indie devs making like tiny little maximum 10 megabyte freeware games on itchio keeping the art of filesize optimization alive. ASSET REUSE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#im watching a video about wario land music -> 'the bizarre music and sound design of wario land 4' by geno7 #good video so far! i like this guys stuff. he talked a bit about how they did some of the sound effects for warios voice #a very like. chopped and remixed sample style of doing his vocal lines. which is very cool 1) because it saves a bit of #precious space on that gba cartridge BUT ALSO 2) it just sounds cool and interesting stylistically #and man sometimes trying to keep a file size down really does give way for some really interesting stuff #on my own personal interests in games i ADORE rpg makers rtp and how people can find creative uses for it #i love that a bunch of games can draw from the same asset pool as one install on ur computer #no bloating your hardrive with a bunch of copies of the same assets - its just already here!#and from a developers perspective i love when they reuse old assets from other games in new weird ways #some small visual novel companies will reuse backgrounds and other assets #altho i dont mind a bit of bloat with VNs since a big draw can be the big pretty images and big pretty sounds #but its still cool when people find ways to get creative with space saving. and from a players perspective its also nice #space is cheap nowadays. but its not Free. we can swallow terabytes whole with micro sds and everything #but a lot of players dont get the chance or ability to upgrade their internal memory that often. so i think being considerate of filesize i #very important. and thats not even getting into the download bandwidth limits - a lot of people all across north america can only get like #internet from 1 provider and that 1 provider often likes to upcharge and limit shit because they can #we might live in a future where a lot of powerful technology exists. but access to that tech is another story #so remember the filesize. remember the filesize.#dies in your arms

That ace vibe of "I know this person is incredibly attractive, but they're also saying something interesting could you please stop screaming I want to hear what they're saying."

#this is about kpop #like yeah i know hes hot and shirtless #but i wanted to hear the story hes telling about why he got that tattoo shut UP #or like when people put music edits over someone being hot but i remember the context of what they were saying #and that was more interesting than the edit now is #like yeah cool great muscles and pretty skin #this fucking nerd is also trying to give a really detailed breakdown of their thought process and I really want to know how they did that #I'll get back around to them being pretty once I'm done listening to what theyre actually saying #I'm pretty sure I'm gray ace #like i know theyre hot dont get me wrong it'll fluster me eventually #but only once i like them as a person and even then it only hit SOMETIMES #this is specifically about Christian Yu #hes gorgeous yeah but like I'm really a lot more fascinated by his creative process #it sounds similar to mine and thats not something I see often #asexual #ace tag #kpop #sam speaks

"you must hate kingdom hearts if you keep complaining about it!!!"

#robo ramble #i always keep saying that im like if a kh fan from 2009 was sent into the future and saw the horrifying downfall happen all at once #not claiming that days or any of the prior kh games were perfect. but .. something changed and it hurts.#i guess i just feel miserable that one of my most cherished childhood special interests decided to take the worst possible direction #that i could ever fear. the charming artstyle the story the characters even the music i'd argue. has taken a turn for the unpassionate.#i remember when kingdom hearts was bold. creative. heartfelt. and fun. and not this meta plot trash with all these meaningless moving #pieces. i remember when the characters actually mattered and drove the story. not plot devices.

I'm not a "new musical theatre style music" person. Never have been.

Even when I was doing voice lessons, I'd steer towards the golden age or jazzy musical theatre songs. My voice teacher would have to drag me kicking and screaming towards adding anything new musical theatre to my repertoire. For a while, the most modern song in my book was I Know The Truth from Aida, and I wouldn't count that as new musical theatre style since I mean more the Pasek&Paul or Joe Iconis type.

And now I have an audition coming up for a small production of a show in that style and I'm supposed to sing a song in a similar style. And I'm looking at all my sheet music like... let me do some Cole Porter... or Gershwin... at least Sondheim please...

#look i do have SOME newer musicals in my book. but like i said. kicking and screaming.#i'm probably gonna end up doing 'I Think That He Likes Me' which is not IN a musical it's just new musical theatre style #as part of a songbook for some writing duo that i can't remember the name of and it's 2:45am so i can't care enough to look it up.#and it's the only one in my sheet music folder that i'm like 'ok. this is TRULY the right style' and i know it's good in my voice #and it's a cute song and i do like it and it definitely fits the overall vibe of the show #and though i haven't sung it in like 4 years i still remember 90% of the words and have time to study it before the audition #but while trying to find that song deep deep in my folder i pass by other songs i just love so much more #and i'm like ahhhhhhhh why #and i'm not even like 'god i hope i get it' (see A Chorus Line. that's more my type) i truly don't care if i'm cast or not #and yes i can technically audition with any song i could ever want it's just suggested to do the same style #but i know the entire creative panel who i'll be auditioning for and the last 2 times i auditioned for them i sang the same song #only because it's a GOOD song that fit both shows i was auditioning for (Can't Stop Talking About Him by Frank Loesser)#(perfect audition song since it's short at like 28 bars and you can pick the tempo and do a lot of character stuff)#(but see this is what i mean. like 1/3 of my entire sheet music folder is golden age musicals. then half is 60s-90s.)#(and then the last chunk are the few new-ish musical theatre and some pop music.)#(if i took performing more seriously i'd have a wider range but this is truly just for fun and just for me. so i do what i like.)#i don't want to go in for a 3rd audition with the same creative team and doing the same song. especially since it doesn't fit this time.#so once again. dragged kicking and screaming. over to new musical theatre territory. unwillingly.#if i get cast we'll have to see if the show itself even grows on me since honestly i think there's maybe 2 songs i like in it.#it's definitely not the worst new musical theatre style show but it's also not one that drew me in.#ok wait while looking through lists of 'new musical theatre' shows to find one i actually like (i think just Legally Blonde sorry guys)#(every other new musical in the last 20 years that i like did something interesting with the music like Come From Away)#i ended up finding out that apparently 13 was adapted into a netflix movie? when did that even happen?#i mean i don't care for that show either but i thought i was at least up to date on movie adaptations.

ok one thing that's been pissing me off lately is the way. in both positive and negative opinions holder's estimations. hole is completely reduced to courtney love's band. in ways that completely ofuscate the conributions of the other members. this is very typical in music generally in a way i already find frustrating but it's especially egregious in the case of all-female or mostly female bands where each member had entire histories completely just removed from the discussion outside of the frontwoman. how many female drummers do you know list them top 5 lets go. ok now how about female drummers NOT in all female bands do you take the time to discover these women to listen to them to track the different bands and projects they're in do you CARE outside the list-ification of "diverse bands" about these artists as creative contributors who have tangible effects on music at large. <- guy listening to a lot of shift rn voice

#this is an issue i have outside of hole if that wasnt clear. hole is jut a particularly egregious example as well as being familar #like yes courtney love. as a musician and public figure. she is contentious. shes also not the only person involved in the making #of holes music. which is good and significant and interesting and not singularly hers or the only music which speaks to her experiences too #which is a good thing! that there are so many people in the creative process. as well as influences and contemporaries.#for us all to discover and enjoy and can demystify the celebrity a bit and ground us all in the inherent collaborative nature of music #while also learning other woman exist!#my posts

making this post for like the 3rd time now but it's a fucking tragedy that there isn't more hurdy gurdy music in the world

#misc.txt #hurdy gurdyposting once again #I knowwww it's not a popular instrument. but imo there's so much untapped potential!! it's such a cool sound and you could do so much w it #like you could fit it into so many styles and have it sound incredible. the precussion the buzz the drone. like. idk.#the clicks and buzzing etc. so many sounds coming out of that thing. you could make REALLY unique stuff with it imo and yet.#most ppl do not even know what it is. like it would go SO HARD in a game ost or something but that just doesn't exist #or even if/where it maybe does exist it's like...not what I'm thinking of. I want some composer to just go apeshit with it #use every sound you can get out of it to the fullest extent in creative ways etc #for example guilhem desq does some really interesting stuff and I love his music but that's just one guy #andrey vinogradov is good too but his is much less experimental(?)#legit if I had the money I would buy one right now it's just soooo. so mesmerizing to me I love them so much #I wish I could learn to play one but they are uh. 3-5 thousand dollars <3

i need to like . make a post that like properly constructs my opinion on modern vocaloid music but like i swear they dont make music like they used to nowadays and it kind of blows

#ashe is rambling #like im listening to envy cat walk rn #and its crazy how much raw personality and energy and creativity went into it #you can somewhat blame how vocaloid has become more popular which all together is good for the genre on the surface #and it is thriving #but its like .#really is it #because while vocaloid has become a more popular and profitable music genre it comes at the cost of #corporate sanitization and making whatever sells #and im like #happy the genre has a reached a point where vocaloid has become more focused on music as a whole rather than just the characters #its still frustrating seeing a creativity drought among the most popular producers compared to what was being produced years ago #and like sure you can argue they became more professional and theyre more skilled at their craft which i guess is fine #but honest to god the charm of vocaloid to me is just . the vibe of guys making whatever sounds cool skill level and profitability be damne #all because miku cute #yaknow #idk #im a vocaloid boomer please understand this has been my special interest for like 9-10 years now #anyways tohma come back i miss you

random...

so i kinda quit kpop journaling at the beginning of september for multiple reasons (i felt overwhelmed w all the groups i stan and "have" to make bday/comeback spreads for; one of my friends also found my journal and opened it when they came to my house and they only saw one page but it freaked me out) but i kinda miss it? but i also have so much to make up at this point...

#random #dream's things #it was so fun to be #creative abt one of my fav interests #i've always been super #into music and journaling #so i liked combining it #but it's like so shunned by #society ig?#and there's so much to do #the last bday spread i made was like jk? so everyone since #him #plus comebacks and other stuff #ugh #kpop journal
