This is a wellness check. You've been listening to the Shrek OST numerous times--have your stress levels gone ogre the limit?

1500 plays of P.tM in a single span of 3 days? Literally cannot believe you did that.

Welcome back, weary wanderer.

Just did! Thanks!

You need a new comment.

I hope he's enjoying it! It instantly became a favorite.

It has David Wise as a composer but I love how you can see his charm in the tracks along with a hint of nostalgia on some tracks. I've been a bit busy with life but I can't say its been anything really eventful, still keeping it mellow.

Have you listened to the Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze ost? If you've enjoyed the DKC music than this is a real eargasm.

Sigur Ros played in my city like 3 months ago but I didn't go because I was afraid of how it'd be since they lost a member and because I had no cash at the time. I hope I have another chance to catch them sometime...

Ah, last I remember you were with your grandparents in Pakistan right? Its been so long I can't recall. I'm still working through the backlog of albums, I greatly enjoyed Serph though, electronic/glitch if you haven't heard him. Otherwise I'm trying to listen to producers known for their excellent production. For research theres always Wikipedia!

Busy but at the same time not so busy, like 60/40. Hows life in the U.K.?

You should should play it if you ever get a chance, Kirby Super Star is like one of the best SNES games. One of my favorite games definitely.

That was pretty good, some of the remixs are fantastic while still maintaining the original charm.

Totally downloading that, high hopes!

Just listening to another soundtrack from a show I've never seen. Not bad at all.

I just recently listened to him, Port Entropy is a thing of beauty. Currently I'm just messing around with Spotify so I might find something nice as well.

I'll get around to trying Spotify... someday.

Oh man, I can't say I've been paying too much attention because I don't even remember what I've listened to from this year. I think I may be a year behind, going on two years.

Microsoft Sam has my back.

I can kind of understand, I find my voice weird so I don't like being recorded either... but its still my new years resolution.

A Maschine is this beautiful thing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdFlFxJFnfY As for recording, that'll be something to discover when the time comes.

Hehe, the only friend I have that plays as well isn't the most reliable person, every time he comes over we end up doing something else. He started playing before me by about two years and doesn't practice as much but I'm still trying to push him.

Hah yeah, I really like music and playing it. Especially doing stuff digitally now, I love my Maschine. I think when I get a mic I'll end up trying to convince my brother to play acoustic guitar and do some folk stuff with him.

Yeah, I'll probably take a shot at Reaper or FL again when I do. I'll try to do that one track I want to do and then figure it out from there. I have an issue where when I have a nice rhythm guitar going I don't know how to add other instruments that make the whole thing sound harmonious, instead of it just feeling like 'adding on'. It ends up sounding like half my stuff are post-rock crescendos which can be cool, but not always my goal.

There isn't actually much to say, someone made a song for people on the internet (he took his videos down now so no link) on Christmas and I thought it would be neat to do something similar. My technique is messy though and also I simply got lazy so never actually did anything. Before that I wanted to do it before my birthday in November. Damn my inability to stay focused!

Usually when I think of horror I think of ambiance, awaiting surprise now.

Yeah actually, the changing tempo of them really lifted the track as a whole. You should try making more percussion stuff.

I play the guitar, bass guitar, violin, piano, drums/other percussive stuff. Hopefully I'm getting a mic for Christmas so I can record stuff, like my cajon, and feel hipster as fuck.

Haha yeah, it's not the greatest out there but it works for the time being.

Well at least we got a Majora's Mask soundtrack out of it, not bad at all.

It was a noble sacrifice. ;_;

Uh... maybe I'll make it next year's resolution if I survive.

Ha, I'm totally calling it that. I'm hoping to open the book before the world ends.

I'll give it a listen when i head home this winter break!

Sounds like a soundtrack to a horror game, inspired by Penumbra?

Breaking Dawn and Fifty Shades Darker (I kid). I've been meaning to open up The Brothers Karamazov for a while now, Blood Music by Greg Bear, Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World by Haruki Murakami, and The Library by Zoran Zivkovic to name a few. How about you?

Ugh, I've got a pile of books piling up right next to that stack of games. If I can finish one of each before the end of the year then I'd be content.

Good stuff. I really should get around to playing it the game.

Ctrl+P on Spotify (Or Edit -> Preferences) Last.FM is on the top. On Spotify Mobile on iPhone, go to More -> Settings -> Social

I've got a huge backlog of albums and I STILL keep putting it off. Don't get distracted!

lol wat? Is that your way of telling me I should listen to them?

I used to watch stuff frequently but nowadays I either don't have the time or something doesn't seem interesting. Too bad theres no way to slow down time yet, theres still a ton of stuff I want to do.

I've honestly only listened to Drop Nineteens Delaware because it was recommended, can't say anything about the other albums. Also some of that Franz Maxwell stuff is pretty chill, I haven't watched the show that its from but it had a nice OST.

And everyone else is crazy. Just like in real life.

The main character is the killer because he's actually crazy isn't he?

Yeah thats usually the case these days.

When I saw Divine Fits a few nights ago, they did a great cover of Doom Town by The Wipers

I can't even remember the last time I went for a checkup but I'll assume I'm healthy (hopefully).

Have fun at the water temple.

Mischief Makers go go go
