3v3's wor1d

Last post was July 18th, I don't remember why I was falling apart with consistency (⁠・⁠–⁠・⁠;⁠)⁠ゞ This one's quite link heavy too, but for the context of it all I suggest you listen along as they appear (⁠•⁠ ⁠▽⁠ ⁠•⁠;⁠) Anyways, subject at hand, I don't know if I ever mentioned it but there is a Flash era arcade racer I grew up on called Super Drift (1-3) that featured music that has since caught up with me all these years later.  Most known for its opening theme, Super Drift features " Trust - A Eurobeat Mix " a song by Ayumi Hamasaki on Super Eurobeat's ayu-ro mix album from 2000 (which imo, is peak years of Eurobeat (⁠￣w⁠￣⁠)). Actually I wanna focus on 2 songs for a second, cuz this game features my favorite song of all time, a slightly faster mix of Evolve's " Sugar & Spice ", overall a prime example of Happy Hardcore that (per Discogs) was one of 2 songs the group made before splitting up.  I personally believe that if it weren't for t...

Another thing I tend to not let on about is how much I love the idea of a railroad, always have and always will! I've been out of town recently, and will be for the next few days, so I decided to get some train spotting in while I had good vantages and time to spare (all day (⁠^⁠～⁠^⁠;⁠)⁠ゞ). Spots are as follows: Mostly rolling stock Old Conrail leftover, refurbed by a welding firm 2 iterations of N&W 2-bay Hopper cars, old and slightly-less-old, as well as a pair of almost obsoleted High Top open top Hoppers, which were used for transporting large ammounts of light loose material such as wood chips, usually required special loaders. finally, while quite far away, I got a photo of one of my favorite locomotives, restored by a local rail history chapter, a singular EMD GP30 high hood. Not pictured - 2 EMD SD60E's - 3 stored SD70M-2's - 1 D9-44CW, one of a handful of remaining original 9-44CW units with just a simple power update, create...

If I ever come back to eat those words I'll make sure to delete this one, but I HIGHLY doubt it (⁠◠⁠‿⁠◕⁠).  I've mentioned before that I CAN in fact sing (and half decently if I do say so myself :P), I just choose not to.  As to why, I believe that I have nothing important to say that hasn't already been said by an artist I draw direct influence from, and while yes you can make the argument of "you're your own person with ideas", I feel like those ideas and efforts are best expressed in my compositions rather than conventionally through words.  My idea is that this leaves the work of understanding my music up to you, meaning you have to actually process what's coming at you tonally to comprehend feeling, instead of trying to dissect wordings, similar to classical music!   (⁠・w⁠・⁠) Probably one of the best examples of a modern artist doing this is Cranes , who aside from producing also writes very stylized, variety filled albums that are designed to let the...
