Day #224: Today I Listened to ‘Ruby’ by Sam Sweeney. Ok, got some post-folk today (unless I’m misusing that term, which I probably am).
I really like the ‘1 2 _ 4’ rhythmic groove. It negates the need for a snare drum when every 3rd beat is punctuated by a deadened guitar strum. The add2 chords are nice and there are some great post-rock buildups, not to mention the lovely guitar atmospherics.
If there’s a weak link, it’s Sweeney’s (I assume) violin playing. I’m absolutely not saying I could do better, not even on one of the instruments I play, but when the track rests on the quality of your soloing, you really need to switch up the note values a bit. Almost every note is a quaver, played at pretty much the same level as the one that came before it. It sounds like he loaded some string samples into a computer and had an arpeggiator cycle through them at random.
I worked on this for 12 hours, I was lucky they had Sweeney Todd on the plane, so I celebrated by watching that and drawing this 😭 I wanted SO BADLYY to finish it before his birthday ended, and I finished it 2 min after 💀 anyways I actually like how this turned out, even if I had to cut a lot of characters out !
So many of them mean sm to me...
I relate to Edward sm because lonely socially awkward artist who everyone ostracized because he was a little too weird 🤞
In high school I carried around this emotional support little Edward Scissorhands, he swung from my necklace… some kid knocked him down and his FINGER FELL OFF! Well now both of his hands are missing.
calling me a dumbass when i point out that sam levinson being weird about zendaya doing movies between euphoria seasons is so funny. because someone pointed out...that her white costars...have also done movies.
what's the difference guys? come on.
it begins with a r. ends with a -cism.
(i get that zendaya is the heart and soul of euphoria. still weird to hound on the black lead and not hound on the other white actors in your show. fucking weirdo.)
