i was at work playing music and it was just autoplaying some internet rave music - silly internet music, to quote the osaka from RESPECT YOUR BREAKCORE PRODUCERS by venethan snares and someone else. it reminded me of some of my fondest memories on this old thing >:3
ill make a blog dedicated to whirled.io later but TLDR on that: stream cvrsed
i think late 2021, before i ever played yume nikki i hot really into soundcloud dnb and also my homebrewed 2ds and now associate old ds games and the genre heavily. i LOVED:
listen to this fuckass thing! im writing this on the bus home from work but ill add the date of this to give a good timeline of events. (I had to convert from WAV to OGG online since I have no hecking idea where the project file is (Well I know exactly what USB its on but I aint doin allat)). Oh bless, 02/01/2022 Ivy didn't know what/how to amen break so its just an fl studio drum pluggin thats adorable.
hacking my 2ds was the best thing ever <3 i finally got to play majoras mask and ocarina of time. i actually rommed it on my first laptop back in year 8 (2020) but never got passed the water temple and also i was playing on a keyboard 0_o idek how i got that far.
i love majoras mask, i think youtube videos i lived vicariously through to experience it; were my first exposure to unsettling media - a niche that I believe fully shapes who I am today. unsettling media is everything to me. I now even own the manga! Himekawa Akira"'"s art is so gorgeous. i never fi ished twilight princess (game or manga) but those aesthetics will never leave my mind. '"subliminal messaging"' and covert advertising are oft dystopian concepts, but I think its beautiful how media can so pungently affect who we are, disproportionate to our intentional and/or faithful consumption of it. Kinda like how even if you (human) dont fully understand me or my (anyone) language , or make an effort to, I still hope we (all humans) feel connected. Isnt that beautiful? I always make very poetic ponderings and have a lot of motivation after a good shift or week at work. I love hospitality, I do feel fulfilled from it.
