Codename PROJECT TIDES, the new game from @fabraz.bsky.social was teased today during the Guerrilla Collective stream. I'll be doing music for it with the composing duo Fat Bard! You can get a little taste of the sounds from the Steam teaser and wishlist it! store.steampowered.com/app/2585890/...

spotify is legitimately a terrible company that is bad for music and bad for art, and while i don’t begrudge anyone their personal use of it at all, you should all write your congresscritters and tell them to support this to make up for it

I remember on the other site I once made a "nobody REALLY enjoys summer" post or something along those lines and you replied saying this--then every summer since 2020 saved my mind so I fully regret my words and deeds lol

It is, once again, BANDCAMP FRIDAY.
Today, it doesn't matter which company owns Bandcamp this week--artists are getting all the money.

My newest project is SEEK your SOUND with @mwgewehr.bsky.social, and I've got over a dozen other albums too. Thanks!! ❤️

It's about finding things in music that fire you up and make you want to keep exploring, about honing your skills to the point where you look back on your last project and have new feedback for your past self. Thanks for your support and listening.

"SEEK your SOUND" is not just the name of this EP, but a directive to all listeners who themselves make music or want to make it--and even a goal for ourselves as we worked on it, trying to push ourselves towards unique things.

Those are directly on cohost, I think it's been able to host audio files for a little under a year. Just audio but I usually pair a GIF with it

cohost is my current home for exclusive beat clips and low-stakes random posting. It's the only place where that stuff has really felt good, non-addictive and freeing to do the past couple years due to its limited visible "numbers" cohost.org/MelloMakes

This album was always meant to be a quick experimental digital release, so not at this time. A physical release (done right) requires more artwork and manufacturing/shipping costs so there's a lot more overhead and I pay for it all myself. I'd like to go back and do limited releases of a few...

Today is the first Bandcamp Friday of 2024, which means musicians on the platform get 100% of their earnings. Direct album/CD sales are a big part of what keeps me making music, and you get to actually own music files! 2mellomakes.bandcamp.com/music

It's amazing to be part of a game that is not only full of everything I love, but that is also so popular outside of the usual gaming circles and allows my music to reach people and places it normally may not have. If you're here from that track, I'm so glad to have you listening to more.

I couldn't sum up this year without mentioning the huge impact of Bomb Rush Cyberfunk and the song "I Wanna Kno" on my career--this was a year of growth for me despite not having that much new stuff out, and I'm so happy that many new people found my music.

I've also been working on new solo albums as always, and learning two new instruments that I hope to debut on new material. Since 2020, I've been looking for an opportunity to become an instrumentalist and explore new avenues of creation, and this was finally that time.

Aside from that, there are a few more projects coming in 2024, including my first big release as part of game studio Virtuoso Neomedia: ZODIAC XX: LEO. I have made many songs for it alongside SKYBRIDGE SOUND, MYRONE and @dvi-socialmode.bsky.social and I'm so excited for you to hear them.

Hey everyone,
I wanted to thank you for all your support through 2023. I'm delighted that y'all loved PHD - PORTABLE HEADPHONE DANCEFLOOR. I have a very different thing coming early next year in "seekyoursound", my first ever full project collaboration with another artist, @mwgewehr.bsky.social.

I've been holding this back for a long time--INCREDIBLY EXCITED to say my song "I Wanna Kno" was chosen for the Bomb Rush Cyberfunk soundtrack!!! I still can't believe I'm part of one of the coolest games ever in a music lineup like this. It's out today on PC/Switch.
