Oops I never shared to masto the game some homies and I made for 'Butler! Summon the Imps!' is a Puzzle Bobble-like, imp popping game about trying to prove yourself as a demon butler-in-training.

I did all the sound effects and helped w/ game design! It's super cute, free to play, and runs in your browser! Please give it a try!

This is a blatant rip off of an 8 year old Ned Rush video, but I built the design up from scratch in using very Bitwiggy methods. Featuring: my terrible finger drumming skills and a Sensel Morph. Think of it as free jazz ;)

Made a track as a collab with pixel artist Lux (@thisislux on bird site)

Lots of instruments in this are made from short sounds sampled from Dragon Ball :3

Pixel art of Bulma standing in front of a motorcycle in the middle of wilderness. Bulma's hat says "LUX" on it and the bike says "LUX 69". The brake light is flashing in time with the song's kick drum.

It's been a while since I've last seen the hitchhikers guide movie, and even longer since I read the book, but even though the movie could have been better, I think it still stands up

The interesting thing about the left-wing bubble is how much they want to help the right-wing bubble.

They make these nicely edited clips of right-wing propaganda, and then they add a text saying how unacceptable it is and how awful the statement is. Honestly, there's no better advertising than that.

Better to focus on your vision of the future and highlight the positives. Instead of spreading trash and pointing out how badly it stinks.

But thats just me.

@polarity This is exactly why the US is in the mess that it is, the Dems have been running on "vote for us because we aren't the other guy" for decades now, alongside half-baked campaign promises that are either the bare fucking minimum, not representative of their actual constituents, or never actually get done at all

@donutshoes@social.bitwig.community avatar

@polarity To be fair, left-wingers have a vision, it's just that the vision is self-serving and not for bettering society or the people they serve. It's the kind of vision where they get to choose how much we pay them and how much corporate lobbyists can donate to their campaign funds 🥴

82.7% of music on Spotify has been demonetized as a result of their new 1k annual plays threshold

@MarioTorre @aeon_music It for sure feels like business as usual, but I'd argue it's impact is more than just some artists missing out on <$5 annually. First of all, we're talking about hundreds of millions of dollars being funneled up to top earners and executives every year. Secondly, letting Spotify get away with this signals to the entire streaming industry that it's OK to have anti-artist policies. Regulation needs to happen, and it needs to happen yesterday.

Copied from @WoozlesMusic on bird site:

  • you release a 15 song album
  • every song gets streamed 900 times
  • spotify (used to) pay ~ $.005 per stream
  • 13,500 streams x $.005 = $67.50
  • you have 5 albums like this, so $337.50
  • now, you see none of that money and it gets rolled up to the top into a pop star's paycheck
  • ???

Saw folks saying "you're not going to miss $5" without looking at the big picture. We're talking 100s of millions of $$ being funneled up to top earners and executives.

Released a new single on Bandcamp! Super proud of how it came out, and a sonic palette that I'm wicked in love with.

After a few weeks of frustration and creative block, I had a breakthrough last night and finally got some music done. I stayed up way too late finishing a WIP that's been sitting around for I think close to a year.

If I weren't incredibly busy this week I'd probably try to keep the momentum going, maybe as a treat I'll do another LSDJ remix 🤔

@KaizarNike As someone who absolutely HATES phone calls to the point of anxiety I'm here to tell you that it wasn't that bad. I even had to actually talk to someone on the other end of the line and I managed to survive lol
