My church had an online Thanksgiving service yesterday. We did a virtual choir video for a song I wrote a while ago. Check it out if you're into that kind of thing:

That is well done. The singers are mixed pretty darn well.

Evil Grin released a single last month and I completely forgot to mention it to anyone because life. It's in all the usual stores and players.

I'm super happy finally to be able to announce my inclusion on a tribute album of covers in memory of my childhood hero, Pete Shelley - it's out now https://notmurderedrecords.bandcamp.com ... s-not-here.

To celebrate, I made a crappy video -

I figured out how to open arbitrary internal MIDI ports and livecoded some drum and bass. Turns out either FL studio or SuperCollider really, really hates it when you crank the tempo up to 43000 bpm -- the track kind of dies at the 3:20 mark. It's a bop until then though!

Is that what people are talking about when they say "this song slaps"? Good work brutus. Good work.

My band Lucky Witch and the Righteous Ghost just dropped a new EP: Dreams in the Witch House, featuring the eponymous single and 4 songs based on the works of the poet Oliver Baer.

Hi All,
I tried to get this song in, but it arrived too late to be included in the fight. Maybe someone will listen to it here.

I finished FAWM this year. I'm quite happy with the results. I've released all the songs on Bandcamp

"Health" by Terror At Space Camp
https://niveous.bandcamp.com/album/health

If you're not looking for a full meal, snack on tracks like "Do You Believe In Ghosts?", "Yalla", or "Act of Contrition".

I put together a virtual rendition of Handel's Hallelujah Chorus for Easter at my church. Our friend Sober was kind enough to join the choir as well.

I'm only a couple of months late, but I posted up a Bandcamp album of the 8 solo songs I wrote and recorded for February Album Writing Month this year, including fight winner "The White Morph":

Here's a song I wrote early in the morning after my Mother passed. It's a live recording with one mic of me and my guitar. There are a few spots of imperfect vocals etc., but it captured how I was feeling at the time.

Thanks to those who bought my new album! @fluffy it may have been past midnight here... not sure how that works.

TC, thanks for sharing your song. I’m so sorry for your loss, and also the difficult times you and your family have been through lately dealing with it. “Enjoy” or “beautiful” are weird words in this context, so I’ll just say I appreciated hearing the honesty in this song and your entry this week and I hope your art is helping with your grief. Hugs ❤️

It's based on Pacific Time, regardless of where you or the buyer are. I bought it at 11:15 PM. Oops.

Haha, that's pretty brilliant. I always love versions of songs where a couple of minor changes make a massive perspective shift.
