 G'day folks, Michael here!

 

So, Sunday again, and that means it's blog-time!

 

We're currently melting in the heat, but hopefully we'll manage to put a cohesive post together for ya. Let's start with our....

Music stuff! 

 Got a new project in the works, with a dirty, naughty synthesizer sound in it. Progress has been coming in bursts, but it's been truckin' along alright. 🙂
 
In other news, we're reasonably pleased with Electric Boogaloo's performance on the net. Now, on paper, it got very few views/listens compared to our other songs, but considering there was no marketing budget this time around, we're not complaining!
 
There was also a bit of a hiccup with publishing it on Spotify, so there were a few days of delay, there. All sorted, though. 😉
 
 
 Other than that, we've started looking into making some shortform videos where we talk about.... stuff. Kinda like Rambling About, but shorter. Basically like audiologs, or mini-vlogs.
The idea is that it's something we can do super-quick, and without too much fuss.
 
Anyhow, we'll see where that little idea goes. For now, let's go over what we've been up to with our...
 

Non-Musical stuff

 Well, we've been riding our bike a fair bit, now that the weather's decided to be all nice. Though today, it's cloudy, yet unpleasantly hot. Could've done without that, but what can ya do.
 
The last couple of weeks were kinda dominated by Cyberpunk 2077.
We decided to finally finish our ongoing playthrough, but we wanted to be thorough about it, and well... we were. Got the save file to nearly a hundred hours, and that's while skipping most of the gigs and scanner hustles, focusing on the more "proper" quests.
Phantom Liberty is a heck of an expansion, by the way. If you happen to be considering it... go for it, yo!
 
But yeah, that's about all we've gotta say, this week. We'll leave you with some pictures of our character. After that many hours, this is now our -definitive- V.

Rollerskates, graffiti and a god-tier soundtrack: Bomb Rush Cyberfunk

... is what we'd recommend you do with this game.   Heya, Michael here.   So, a little while back, we found that the original Jet Set Radio was on Steam.   This was quite the thing for us to learn you see, because JSR is one of those games we've often heard about, but had never had a chance to actually play.   A shame, because it's got a much vaunted soundtrack, and unsurprisingly for a musician, we're are a bit of a connoisseur when it comes to games with good soundtracks!   But yeah, we learned it had been on Steam for years, and was actually gonna get taken off the store, soon (it has been, by now).   So needless to say, we bought it while we could, and jumped right into it, having an absolute.....   .....ly awful time with the gameplay.   Yeah, sorry if you're a big fan of JSR, but you've gotta face it, man, it's the nostalgia doing it for ya. Because hopping into it as a fresh player in modern times? Maaaan, it feels clunky as all heck t...

Our music listening habits

-

    Greetelings everyone, Amalia here.    So, we figured that, seeing as we're a musician of.... indeterminate genre, some of you might (hopefully) be interested in what sort of music we actually listen to, and our general habits with that.   Now, you'd perhaps think that someone who makes music themselves would probably listen to tunes 24/7 and live and breathe music, but that's actually quite far from the reality, here.   See, we don't actually listen to music all that much in life, in the grand scheme of things. Typically, in the mornings, we prefer the quiet, enjoying some peaceful time for contemplation and meditation.   Our workplace is an industrial firm, but unlike many such places, the higher-ups don't want radios playing around the shop floors. Seems daft to us, since it's known to increase productivity in those kinds of settings. But alas.   Now, when we get home in the evenings, that's our prime time for music listening. When we're get...

Our visit to Thomann, 13th of June '25

  Howdy folks!   So last month, we visited Thomann! Again!  It was our second time around. We didn't have a blog to write about it last time. But this time we do, so we shall tell you a little about our visit and the stuff we brought home with us! 😀    Well, to get us started, if you don't know, Thomann is a musical instrument and equipment vendor. One of the biggest, actually. They're mainly known for their online store , which has a rather chunky selection of various bits and bobs, from really fancy guitars and PA systems to little curios like this .  And no, this blog post isn't sponsored or anything. We just wanna tell you about our visit.😉    So anyway, a little curiosity when you want to visit Thomann's actual shop location is that it's..... *really* out of the way. It's in a small settlement called "Treppendorf", here in central Germany. The funny thing is: We actually live only about an hour's drive away, and yet we really can't g...
