Posting here because i can't post in the other thread due to bug.

tex:
-How much do you like drawing compared to composing? And what are the odds of you drawing more often, be it joining or hosting grafxicist battles or, simply, doing so spontaneously

I like drawing more than composing music at the moment but I've lost interest in entering competitions besides to force myself to do something.

02fd: not sure if you're sarcastic, ebow can be nice but using a bow on an acoustic guitar sucks



viraxor:
-I've noticed that a lot of your entries contain a variety of instruments. how many instruments can you play?
I've played piano and guitar the most. I played bass guitar and upright bass a lot in high school. I rented a bass clarinet and a clarinet and cello and viola in 2021 and 2022, and i bought a cheap bass clarinet. I'm not good at it but it feels nice when i whip it out. also i got a kalimba a little while back, it feels nice in my hands, but it's hard to record in a satisfying way.

mioh:

-wats ur fav dog
samoyed because they're big and fluffy and friendly

-also if u had to fight 3 botbrs for the rest of ur life (alternating one by one daily) which ones wld u choose

kleeder, goluigi, tree

kleeder and goluigi i have no real justification for, tree because i cannot let them overtake my latist score.

argarak:
-what in your opinion defines a good sequencer or generally musics creation software / hardware over a bad one? (in terms of capability and interface)

I think what i would like most at this point is something that is smooth to use but has little surprises and opportunities for something unexpected to arise, while allowing for fine control if desired.

-any weird sequencing techniques that stand out to you?

markov chains, nested probability of events

-what makes your more in favour of shorter releases than long drawn out ones? ever thought about making a larger compilation? any particular vision when it comes to album covers / titles?

I realized i'm not going to be popular in the way i would have liked when i was younger so i put together stuff however feels right to me. Some of the albums i did started with a short sentence which was split up (almost everything you love will soon become incomprehensible, after seeing a pretty sky i wanted to pretend love was real), which makes a limited song length by design. also, i wanted to assemble the botb entries that i liked but that list was on my old computer that died.

In terms of covers, i liked doing collages of random stuff because "sum is greater than its parts" and using cc0 stock images so i'm not breaking any rules, even though there's no chance of someone trying to get me for using their pictures for my silly tunes. i do that when i'm just being silly, if i want to convey ambient thing then outdoor/nature pics are nice.

first computer you ever used?
probably windows 95

-what is the most annoying symptom of the common cold
the anime girls that keep floating at the edge of my vision, just barely out of reach. One day i will be able to have one of them in my grasp.

You said you'd like to acquire a squat rack/barbell/plates. Does this means you'd rather work out at home than hitting the gym?

What’s the longest amount of time you spent out in nature, away from technology? What was the occasion?

I already work out at home but I don't have a squat rack/barbells, just pullup bar and dumbbells. I feel like having a barbell would allow me to do stuff in a way that works for me.

-What’s the longest amount of time you spent out in nature, away from technology? What was the occasion?

As a child, must have been a few weeks because I did some overnight camps. As an adult, not more than a day, that I can remember.
