Uy Usgasib Eb

This week I decided to make the signature 5/4 and see where that goes. It seems confused, some parts feel like they didn't get the memo and do a weird polyrhythm. It's not intended behavior, but it's nice. At this point in time my past is a black box and any supposed bugs that have existed since forever are just features now, a neural network out of sheer laziness and indifference. As long as it still outputs stuff, I'm content.

It'll get fixed someday though.

A moment to journal myself then...
...
hmm.
Sometimes I feel like I'm only happy when I distract myself from being me, not great. It's not so strong when I'm spending time with my lovers. I really wish I could spend more time with them.

Maybe try to see yourself the way your lovers do.  That's something that's taken me a long time, to see myself the way people who love me do - but you are loveable and worthy!

this track actually works with the journal entry!

You are great! I think I speak for many when I say I'm on the edge of my seat seeing where this crazy contraption takes us each week. Remember: Music is proof that God loves us *all* and wants us to be happy (everyday no matter what).  Also, I know I'm not alone realizing WB is a rare source of sanity in this world gone haywire.

Intro immediately reminded me of the godfather theme. I like the mellowness of this track and i like the discrete spacebirds at around 1:13, was there some kind of altercation between the spacebirds and our favourite OG bird there around 1:36 ? ... cause he sounded quite agitated! Nice track

Yea, we have a bit of a self-image issue, even though we absolutely adore our other selves. It takes another me to notice. It's nice to have the understanding from my lovers who are also like this.

Just the way I like them. Harmless and ominous.

We don't believe in such a thing as a god; any of them. WB is both a blessing and a curse though and I'm enjoying this wild ride. Thank you for the kind words by the way.

I can see that, and a little later it has some Deus Ex in it. Not sure what the birds are up to, the "space birds" (they're supposed to be hyenas) have been around as long as the birds have and they've just been doing their own thing.
Also thanks.

Whoa wait a minute... you mean there are dire consequences if we fail to show up/post?! What have I got myself into!? wink

Also, regarding the God thing... I really need to figure out who I'm talking to all day if it isn't Him... Whoever it is wields the power to change my reality in a blink!

I do get that polyrhythm vibe, but that is interesting actually, giving a slight sense of vertigo. I enjoyed it.

I don't know about dire, but my streak is quite long (it's unbroken since the tail end of 2012) and completion always feels so satisfying, but the road to it is pretty arduous. I can only imagine failure hurts that much more.

As for the god thing, not sure, but you can ask a psychologist. We have multiple personalities, which is a thing that does weird things to perception of the world in some cases, try ruling that out on your way there.
In general, reality should be pretty fixed.

Yea, it's not bad, just a quirk. I'm sure I can put it back in at a moment's notice, but I'm trying to keep it tidy for now.

I liked the 5/4 rhythm gave it sort of a swingy feel. smile

These are all of my favorite sounds, but like if I surprised them by busting through the door and flipping on the light. Run little sounds! But it’s okay, your are my favorites.

Thanks, it's capable of much zanier things now. It's almost where is was at 4 years ago or so.

I can give them to you and you can play with them like little dolls if you like.

The clash of melodies and timing are surprisingly satisfying. At least the birds got the memo smile
