haha wow that's craaaaaazy hahaha
okay but in all seriousness i've opened up a patreon! there's no posts there yet and i'm still figuring out some of the details, but if you want to throw Money at me, it's there! B)
(link in thread)
what if i started a patreon where i post my older music that ended up on the cutting floor or was never published, maybe old versions of published songs or even a sneak peek or two into my general music-making process
wouldn't that be crazy haha

you know what, why not. we Move (chaser theme WIP from middle of the song)
this section still needs work, esp w/mixing and mastering and such, but i also can't wait for twitter compression to do me dirty with this :)
best listened to on vxtwitter obviously :3c
man, working on several tracks at once is an Experience. i rly wanna show my listeners what kind of cooking i've been up to recently, but i simply Must resist the urge 😔
and though a lot remains unfinished, rest assured. it is Good.

TOMORROW (WEDNES.). 7:30PM GMT+2.
the New Kyrsa theme, like it's never been heard before. be there, or the Depths claim ye!

"you really are polyrhythm gonis now" - Iltria Deepwoken
"gives me so much chrono trigger vibes tbh" - Raguza (of 'Rogue Lineage' fame)

Visions should be up on Spotify & other streaming services within a week hopefully dipping my toes into the waters of releasing music to the broader public now that Deepwoken's release is coming up very soon.

hi folks! haven't used Twitter in ages, but - i've released two new tracks for Deepwoken recently! one of them is 'The Windsinger's Dance', and the other is 'A God, Manufactured' (aka the long-awaited Chaser theme)! find links in thread below! B) 🧵

given the difficulties of producing an original song for the Duke's boss fight, our team over at
@Deepwoken
have decided to instead play Lord Erisia's stand-up comedy routine in the background of the fight. here's a sneak peek - we hope you like it!

people sometimes joke to me about 'naktigonis concert LIVE', and i think about that often... imagine if i had an actual live concert, where a band performs the DW OST -what one song would you want to hear live the most? (assume 'INSOMNIA' doesn't count for this haha)

i'll address the elephant in the room - it is Decisively Not Fun when your work gets prematurely leaked into the public, and ROBLOX's asset security issues are a major reason why i think Deepwoken's going to be the *only* game i will have worked with on the platform :,)

HELLO TWITTER! (or X? i'm calling it twitter.)
i don't use twitter as a main social media anymore - but i remain here for announcements! in case you're not aware - there's a Halloween event in Deepwoken! new content! and i made a new track for it! links in thread below 🧵

Deepwoken lore is all based on Dean Martin's song "That's Amore". don't believe me?
• "when the moon hits your eye" = moonseye reference
• "that's amore" = Amorus Pleeksty, famous Black Diver
• "bells will ring" = reference to resonances, colloqually known as 'bells'

for those wondering why i've been awfully quiet recently - i've been on a hiatus/break from work recently, taking some (arguably well-deserved) time to rest and recharge.

• "when you walk in a dream but you know you're not dreaming" = visionshaper illusory realm
• "when the stars make you drool just like a pasta e fasul" = lightborn/celestials reference (they're italian that's why their civilisation collapsed)

what's a mundane video game moment that rly sticks to ur mind for some reason?
for me it's returning to New Winchester (starter area) in Sunless Skies - the flavour text goes "The taste of smog. The sound of iron on iron. We are home." and the music flares up... n it's just 👨🍳👌

i understand people's excitement for L2 - the developers are excited to get it out too! but a lot of surprises and such can be ruined by leaks like this.
do yourself a favour as a player - resist curiosity, and don't seek them out. go in blind. it's more fun this way, trust me.

checked their website to see if my music is on there (it was - they literally just ripped all of Spotify!), and with how long their site takes to load, i wouldn't be surprised if the grift here was 'we mine crypto in your browser while you angrily search for your music lol'

half of it is unfinished work as well - due to some major snags in life (deeply personal stuff so i won't get into it) my music production has ground to a halt (this won't affect the update's release).
the vocal one is literally an audio sketch (which isn't even for ingame use!)

as a pretty small artist (6k followers on Youtube and like 4k on spotify is small beans!) it's quite devastating emotionally, as well as financially and exposure-wise - major traffic now goes to channels who have nothing to do with my work. people have built communities off less.

OKAY clearly someone doesn't learn and is now doing it to other people.
ATTENTION! PSA!: if you're a Roblox developer and are approached on Discord by angad
#1994
, do NOT respond - immediately block him. he will try to become a contributor in your game and sell you stolen music.
PSA: do NOT steal music from artists i've literally spoken to & try to pass it off as your own to impress me - or, even worse, claim you want to *contribute* to Deepwoken development with it! i genuinely can't believe i have to say this LOL
