belated introduction
Posted: Thu Jul 09, 2020 7:43 pm
Hey everyone, fauxthoreau here. I’ve entered a few fights over the years, first as Kenka back in 2015ish and then as fauxthoreau starting in late 2018. I never properly introduced myself, so I figured no better time than now. Hi!
I’ve been something of an amateur/hobbyist musician for most of my life—started by playing viola in middle school and then moved over to guitar back in my college days. I’ve spent the past 8 years drumming with a community taiko group in NYC. Most recently I’ve begun to explore composing chiptune through a tool called Beepbox, and I’ve been using my Songfight entries in part to work on my composition and Beepbox skills.
I don’t actually remember how I first came across Songfight. But I really enjoy how the fight themes bring out ideas, moods, melodies, and lyrics that I didn’t know I had in me. I hope to participate in fights as often as life and inspiration permit. When I can’t, I’ll try and hang out on the boards at least.
Good to meet you all!
