Struggling lately. BPD has been very hard to control lately. Splitting all day long. Last two days were very very grim. Yesterday was nearly the end. Stopped myself. Feeling fantastic today. Things are not always as bad as what they seem, but at the same time, not always as good as what they seem. It is very important to be self aware. Back in WA for work. Away from home, away from my thoughts. Happy with "Telegraph of". Happy to see my friends. Happy to be away from my thoughts. It's not always bad. Psychotic symptoms have returned after 3 years. I love the support my friends give me. I must be doing something right to still have the support. I have hope.
Much Love

Fuck adobe, fuck them so hard. Before I unsubscribed today, I went to download all my cloud files which is mostly lightroom cloud sync, from a span of 6 years across a few different computers and a couple phones. I do not have many of these files saved anywhere else (or cbf finding them) so I needed to download my whole library. Turns out you cant do it in the lightroom program or website, you need to download a 370mb program from adobe to do something this simple. 32gb of high res film scans, digital photos, and 3d renders. At least it categorised it for me.

Have managed to stay away from drinking for the most part. Unfortunately I had a very bad relapse in self harm while I was working away. It's pretty bad, but i feel great now, it needs to happen every now and again, as stupid as that may sound to others. Please do not worry, I am living the dream.

So incredibly tired. Have been making a lot of pleasant music. Gig tomorrow, some of my best material is ready to be played. Going to try and abstain from drinking.

It has been a while since I've written an entry on here. A lot of things have been going on. worked myself to the ground. Been killing it at work but there is a lot of pressure on me in both the workplace and my personal life. Things are moving forward but my personal life has halted. Have had some motivation recently, there will be new music out soon and gigs on the 30th and 31st. I need to look after myself to avoid another breakdown, so I might go a bit tryhard on the music soon. 2 singles and a mixtape is planned so far. spread love and share passion. hold those who you love close, they might not be there the next day. ciao

I can't really see myself going back to the mpc now that I have been using maschine. I pulled it out the other day and had a really hard time getting to where I can easily get in maschine. It's just not as good. I am thinking of selling it as I dont really need standalone any more as I do not have the time for live sets. I think if I ever get the chance to do live sets again, it will be on a maschine+ (if i ever buy one), or just hardware.

Loving the direction my music is headed in, but I am starting to miss the fun of acid. I think its about time I crack the trusty td-3 out again and write some patterns while I am home.

The current price of film hurts me. It's doubled in 2 years. No more 400h either :(

Got pretty wrecked last tour. a lot of work. Got myself a maschine to take to work with me. Will be starting and finishing many tracks with it.
I love it, workflow is fast, and the libraries sound good. its nice to not be limited by the mpc's ram and processing power for once.
Check the archive section.

Love my new job. Happiest and most comfortable I have ever been. Bought a digitone to take with me on tours alongside my digitakt.
I will be able to buy a house very quickly with Becky. We both have really well paying jobs.

On Monday I got a job at Fulton Hogan on their microsurfacing team. Microsurfacing is basically the resurfacing of an already existing road to repair it. It very laborious. Was quite a shock to my body, I'm sure I will get used to it. I really enjoy it so far, and the money is good. Going to blow the first paycheck on an octatrack to take with me lol. Might not even have time for it though. It's long work days 6 days a week.

Despite some unfortunate and defeating setbacks regarding my work status, I am feeling good.
I am fulfilled creatively. my relationships with friends, family, and my partner are fantastic, and I bought myself a new swatch.
I am very happy with my jungle remix of the rich boy song. Thank you to my dear friends Hunter (DJ Breaking Even) for introducing me to the absolute classic that is Throw Some D's, and Jack who introduced me to moises.ai, which I used to isolate the vocals.

I want to mention and thank Leroy AKA Binofski for pushing me to release a track late last year (test... test?) that I was hesitant to release becuase I was unsure if it was ready. It's still not perfect, the mix is dogshit, and I need to fix it, but he told me to put it out and move on to the next. Solid advice, and critical in my development.

New digitakt update is much appreciated. It is a perfect little jungle box now that you can slice samples by time division.
Combined with all the elektron goodness such as automation and parameter locks, it really takes things to the next level. If you have a ton of break samples that are the same tempo and length, and you have them all next to each other in the sample pool, you can flick through them as the sequence is playing, or automate it. epic and cool.

This is a scene I made in blender a few weeks ago.
It is a desert.
Made some low poly palm trees and placed them around, the sand dunes are just a plane with not many subdivisions.
There is also water at the bottom. Hard lighting and hard edges provide contrast. Looks good with indexed colour, I like dithering.
This will be the cover for the deeper cut of 206.

303 day set was a success. Everything went smooth.
It was recorded too O_o
I am very happy.

Wiped a thick layer of dust off my sp404 yesterday and removed all the disgusting stickers the previous owner left on. Looks fresh.
Been loving making shit on it lately. This is my 3rd 404. Had a 404a a couple years ago when I had no patience, sold it. Bought a 404mkii the next year, traded it for a tr8s (thanks Shaun).
Purchased another 404a (current one) mid 2022, and have been using it as zero hassle audio recorder, and occasionally making some music on it. Last couple of days I've been making some shit with it.
Its dirty, its filthy, there is a ton of buzz when resampling, a lofi button. Its great. The compressor sounds great. The muscle memory is still there, hard to forget as its so simple.
Going to be cranking out some absolutely filthy house music with it going forward that I will post on this site.
On a side note, I am now a Lockheed Martin authorized dealer. AGM114R9X now in stock.

Set for 303 day is sounding good. I am very happy with it, and i think its my best yet. A mix of improv and pre planned stuff. Plenty of acid.
My past sets have been..... okay. For the first time I actually feel very confident. I have come a long way in the last couple of months.
Have overcome a big rut that I found myself in. I am enjoying what I am making. I am very tired still.

I havent been sleeping much. I'm very tired.
Tomorrow I will enjoy a Subway in Adelaide. I will buy myself a new ssd, I am running out of storage space due to storing long recordings of Seinfeld re-runs (with ads).

Ok I am going to have a little rant post about some shit that is pissing me off to a very high degree.
The secondhand camera market is so fucked up right now, and I do not know why. It truly blows my mind that old digital cameras from over 8 years ago have GONE UP in price in the last 3 years. I see some fucking little shit on facebook marketplace right now trying to sell his fuji x100 (first model) for 800 dollars.
Like are you fucking kidding me? A 12 year old camera? for 800?
I sold mine for $450 about three or four years ago now, in good condition, becuase that is what the price was. I saw some fucking shithead on an australian fuji group trying to sell his x100s for $1150 (10 year old camera). Never have I wanted to send my private military company out for a hit on someone so bad, this shit really pisses me off. The fucker was getting roasted in the comments but was doubling down saying things like "they are selling for more than this on ebay in australia right now".
And this is what our problem is. These egotistical idiots are checking ebay sold prices before even thinking about a price in their head. They do not think about what a good price might be, or what they personally would pay for the item. This is why prices have gone UP, for dated cameras. These are not rare cameras.

I am manufacturing authentic PEZ on an institutional scale.
I have another casio watch coming in the mail, a gold trimmed f91-w, I am sure you care.
700 googly eyes and 100 smiley face stickers are also on their way. Big plans coming soon.
9:39pm UPDATE: Adelaide Regional Television is now live.

Purchased 6 pairs of pants.
Added a new section to the music page.

Aqquired adelaideacid.fun for this sites domain.
Added music page.
Site is now operational. I had built this website in 2021, but web hosting is more than I was willing to pay for a low traffic site.
I am hosting on geocities. It is free, and all I needed to do was copy and paste my styles, pages, and files into it.
I will try to add a chat box to the site.
