popeye reanimate scribbles

A layout and some doodles to figure out a look for Bluto. Everyone in the Discord's telling me I can't not include the shot of Popeye, but I can't really be arsed. Maybe I'll cut to him for like 8 ...

misc western drawings

In keeping with the previous topic, doodles related to a dated genre I have no personal attachment to: the western! But the premise has gradually been saturated by things I do have an attachment to...

foxglove and the parander

Been reading my grandmother's bestiary book lately, and it drives me nuts how much more imaginative medieval fact was than modern day fantasy writing. Anyway as soon as I read abo...

keep it up 2022

My sister had a nice idea for a melody to this old tune (and a bunch of other old tunes) so we bashed out a bunch while she stayed over for a week. The mix still needs a little work, but yay glad t...

Here's a bunch of tunes stuck together since I don't want to spam. "Some are good, some are bad, some are just OK."

casio jungle tune

Early bits and pieces for a friend's cartoon bashed together.

daft deer joke

I have enough of these now that I should probably arrange them into some kind of story. Or maybe just animate whichever one I feel like first, and wrap things around that organically.

stupid beat

I wanted this to sound stupider, which I'm not sure if that means more effort or less.

gouache scanned, doodle and soldering iron

Scanned those first gouache experiments. I'm thinking of painting a same drawing over and over, so I can't get too attached to doing any one painting "justice"; I just want to get good at painting ...

some doodles, some ink, some gouache

A bit of Sally Cruikshank madness, and some grimy high-contrast polish cartoons inspired some visual ideas (of course, no actual scenes or plots though). For little "shot panels" it's nice to go in...

out of tune

This one was bashed out in about an hour, and now I'd much rather work on this except I have no more ideas.

Also a visual style (although nothing crazy) came to me in a half-sleep state, so I...

platypus plaza

EDIT 01/03/22: did that middle bit now, and couple other bits and bobs, so I'd like to call this 98.3% finished now. There'll always be a couple niggles towards putting things together in an album,...

space conga

A bunch of old experiments/recordings I don't know what to do with, so I bunched them together into a electro-housey mess.

Doing a lot of quick electronic stuff lately because I'm improving m...

impulse response'd x0xb0x

Very Mr. Oizo inspired.

Funnily enough the 303 clone does make a good "actual" bassline synth. Sticking it through a guitar cab simulation (with some other effects) sounds pretty heavy. Altho...

Not sure if I've posted pictures of this particular incarnation of my workplace yet. This is about as tidy as it gets. The big rectangles are my sorry excuse for acoustic treatment (which is better...

rhodes runner

Started another tune but had to stop for all the things I should've been doing (and also immediately after finishing another song I needed to give my ears a break).

baa boo haa hoo finished

At least 99% done; ears knackered after 2 days straight finishing this off. Think a couple spots certain frequencies stack up and get bit harsh or boxy, but the song is certainly done.

sound design experiments

I hate naming sound effects. It takes longer than the actual recording session, and I never know what meaningful names such abstract sounds could possibly suggest.

Was watching some Manga Sek...

daft n farty

Another really quick rough tune. It's a test drive of a drum library I made out of a rediscovered 2009 recording of "oneshots" while I had a full kit (that's some foresight!). This was before I car...

dick diss

Since I was involved a little with the last PRIMBO "exqs" album, I thought I'd have fun producing a beat, nicking the rap at the end of track 8 (no prizes for guessing who that track is about).&nbs...

deer coloured in

Still not totally sure on these colours, 'cause I really like winter light but whenever I try to translate that into something cartoony, it comes across as drab. Not sure how to make fuzzy warm col...

llama coloured in

Another one of those doodles coloured in. Funnily enough I think I like the one without any detail colours more. Makes me think of a 1970's pamphlet or book cover.

coloured in wolf

This one doodle stood out to me, so I figured I'd colour it to get back into the swing of Clip Studio Paint-ing. New Year's resolution will be to get an album done, dabble in traditional art stuff ...

xmas doodles 2021

I spent a lot of the time at my family's doodling. And also developing a vocoder and "chaotic" upwards compressor with Dad. Was nice seeing the dogs too, although bit noisy. I slept right through N...

return of the midi stack piano sound

I've been going through old projects where I come up with a nice sound and then making track templates out of them, so if I need a thumpy house beat, or bass, or weather channel piano sound sta...

I just want to do some panning/stereo stuff, and de-muddying the bass a tad, but beside that I'm happy with how this song wraps things up. Gawd, the last time I attempted Breakcore kicks and glitch...

sound effects 2020-21

Sorry about lack of stuff the past weeks.  It's just been a very busy time, and I'm well and truly burnt out.
