music

Recently had to change doctors because my old doctor decided to go pro in soccer, which would be funny except my new doctor won't just let me take the medications I've already been on for years and wants to start all over. These aren't even drugs that can be used recreationally so I don't get it. There are very few doctors in my area that take my insurance so I'm kinda stuck. The anxiety has killed my creativity recently.

But finally I just decided to play guitar without thinking and not worry about the outcome. When I stop fretting about the end result, I think I make better music. Yeah this track is mostly in mono and the kicks are drowned out by the guitar amp, but I like it anyway. The video was made using a hardware video synth called the sleepy circuits hypno, I patched it so the music would line up with what's showing up on the screen and put a webcam in front of the looping song. I'm filming the output with my phone on an old monitor to add to the nostalgic feeling.

The Lofi sound was made by slowing the loop down til it was nice and crunchy and then adding some wow and flutter on top. I used a pedal called the Blooper to do all of that and the looping.
