[king-of-tragedy]

How can you look me in the eyes and tell me you have not come far?

Fall in love with who you’ll one day be, but please don’t fall so hard that you start to resent every second stuck in the present, absent and restless, unhappy and reckless

Hello again, people who found me through Legend of Zelda.

This started out as two ideas. The chromatic scale walkdown on the string quartet was its own thing, at first. I knew I wanted Riju to have something regal and imposing. When I realized that those two ideas combined together perfectly, the string quartet became a core part of the song. I think it really took off from there.

Lyrics:

Prosperity, Dexterity, has kept us golden but We know from experience such treasure is stolen Time for a strategy, to take our aim The strife to our city it is a moth to a flame In the hearts of a warrior's calling As land rose, see the sand started falling Across the desert we see the dead rise It's down to the wire, and time to galvanize Let the sisterhood follow my lead In times of trouble it's calm that we need You notch an arrow I follow it with crackling Even undead in their fight fall to lightning History could be repeating again So we look to the myth, let it lead to the end You take the first step, I'm sure to follow Side by side we descend into the hollow

And if you ever need me, I'll be There in a flash, Searching through the past We are thunder you and I Knowing the sands of time, I am sure they're on our side We'll win the fight, with Gerudo might We will soon deter the swarm From the desert born No fear, we will reform These intruders will know The wrath of a storm.

Blood red, stained upon our glory Your descent was never worthy Our legacy is passed down through tears Through tens of hundreds of thousands of millions of years Let the desert find a claim Your complacency is why you are to blame We'll find a purchase, just look to the horizon I welcome you to a world dyed crimson To the kingdom of Hyrule, take heed Among such cowardice the strong will succeed! We are an army in every generation Every blow you make has a ramification History here in the world is defined We will rise to the role of the great and divine You try to run, but you know I will follow Come to the dunes and the hills, you'll be swallowed

And if you ever see me, I'll be Strong in a clash, Resolving the past Here the thunder, hear my cry Feel the sands of time How quickly they slip by We'll win the fight, with Gerudo might And you know, you have been warned Many you will mourn While we will be reborn You imbeciles will know The wrath of a storm

Now, do not quaver We must not waver Time we be braver Than all those before No do not stutter Or let doubt mutter And face the utter Monstrosity on the higher floor No, do not quaver We must not waver Time we be braver Than all those before No do not stutter Or let doubt mutter With one another We will stand tall, for

If you ever need me Oh, if you ever need me, I'll be There in a flash, Searching through the past We are thunder you and I Know the lightning's mine, At a call, I'm at your side We'll win the fight, with our might combined This a vow, that I have sworn From the past reborn No fear, we will reform At your call, they will know The wrath of a storm.

Ok I said I would make a pin full of music so here it is

First off, I mentioned KNOWER. It's a long project that started a really long time ago, but their best stuff is probably coming out like right now. As in, they are just about to release a new album, KNOWER FOREVER. The singles on it are incredible, like I'm The President just comes right out the gate with the fattest walkdown I've ever heard from a horn section. The B section makes it feel like I'm enjoying a song like I would a multiple-course meal. Then Crash The Car just transfixes you. Yes, yes, you should listen to those, but don't neglect the fire they put out in 2017 because you owe it to yourself to watch the live sesh of Overtime:

Oh god this post is gonna make viewing my blog super annoying isn't it

Anyway the next thing I gotta mention is Vulfpeck. These guys are famous for scamming Spotify, basically. They released an album full of 30-second tracks of pure silence, just absolutely nothing, titled Sleepify. They got online and said "Yo guys, help us raise money for a free concert by listening to this on loop while you sleep." What they were actually doing was exposing a loophole in the way Spotify calculated royalties, and before they could pull the album (citing "content policy violations," of course), Vulfpeck had already bagged around $20,000, so they put on the completely admission-free Sleepify Tour, which was incredibly fucking based of them.

Vulf went on to become several spin-off projects, all entirely independently released and full of some of the stankiest funk fusion that I cannot stop listening to.

My favorite of these projects, The Fearless Flyers, is headed by Cory Wong, with a guitar idol of mine for 5+ years Mark Lettieri and of course the government subsidized active bass of Joe Dart, but the keystone of the group is no doubt Nate Smith on drums. Dude makes a three-piece set onstage sound like a full kit.

Like just look at what they can do with the added power of sax:

And yeah, I could just talk about those guys, but let's get weirder.

I'm talking modal. The kind of stuff that makes my choir-trained mother cringe inward at the dissonance. Let's talk about the crunchiest, most feral fucking harmonies and keyboard solos that make you question what you thought you knew about chord progressions and key centers.

Obviously anyone super into this stuff will have already heard of Jacob Collier, so I won't show him. But THIS:

I listened to this the first time and it was just.. too much. I put it in its own specific playlist titled "very complex shit" immediately. When I went back to it, enough time had passed and I had learned enough that after way too many listens I can actually follow along with this insanity. This track blew my fucking mind, dude. I have never heard a chorus use so many of the 12 chromatic notes and still sound heavenly. The groove changes add so much texture. The flute solo goes off way too hard. The slower final section is just disgusting syncopation when the drums come back in. Everything about it is incredible, and this album came out in 2007. I am staring back at years of my life I spent not listening to this and ruminating my lack of music theory knowledge. And when I wanted to see if some kind transcribing jazz grad student like June Lee had uploaded anything of System, I found a 2020 reboot with 24 musicians playing System for over twice its original runtime, and guess who did the showstopping final solo??

JACOB FUCKING COLLIER.

Look him up if you don't know. The other musicians I obsess over inspire me. This guy makes me want to quit.

[foodandfriends]

the little whole tone walkdown changes at the beginning of this makes me awesome

[spiderandme]

i've never liked the sound of prolonging a double plagal cadence (bVII-IV-I) with an extra V chord (bVII-IV-V-I) because it makes for a sudden awkward lift in the middle of all that gentle lilting downwards, but i've found you can make it much smoother by throwing in a neapolitan chord between the IV and V (so like Bb-F-Db-G-C, maybe with the bassline spelling out the Bb-A-Ab-G walkdown). alternatively you can also just swap the places of the bVII and IV chords (F-Bb-G-C) and make the progression about gentle movement upwards rather than downwards in the first place (in this case the bassline could optionally spell out the A-Bb-B-C walkup). this might all be common knowledge for true pros, but just wanted to share what i've stumbled upon as a composer in case it helps anyone

Workout - Conditioning Week

So far this week I've worked out almost everyday:

Sun: 5KM (Cycle)

Mon: 5KM (Cycle)

Tue: 2KM (Cycle)

Thu: 2.5KM (Cycle) + Weights

I haven't been consistent with working out in more than a year and I feel so weak. I used to lift my dumbbells with ease but last night was very challenging. I'm not doing any splits, just sticking to cardio and full-body strength training.

It's not my first time getting back into a routine and I know it takes me personally about 2-3 weeks to recondition my body to what I consider my max.

My goal is to not only return to my max strength, mobility and stamina but also to surpass it.

This is the routine I follow just because these are my favourite exercises:

Warmup

Light cardio (jogging/cycling) (5-6 mins)

High knee march (30 sec.)

Butt kickers (30 sec.)

Forward leg swings (10 ea. side)

Rotating toe touches (5-6 reps)

Body weight Squats (6 reps)

B/ward Lunges (5 ea. side)

Jumping Jacks (25 reps)

Walkdown to plant (3-4 reps)

Strength Training

Full Body Routine - Use two 11kg Dumbbells

Squats (2x10)

Romanian Deadlifts (2x10)

Shoulder Press (use 1 dumbbell or drop weight) (2x10)

Floor Press (2x10)

Knee Push Ups (2x10)

Cool Down

Full body stretch routine

Actually, you know what?

I wanna drag Patrick to one of those “mining towns”, like the tourist attractions that simulate the Wild West?

JUST to hear him talk about whatever’s inaccurate about it.

I can also see him just absoLUTELY hijacking one of the fake gunfights, tryin’ to teach the actors proper walkdown etiquette. Luckily his guns only shoot webs, so there’s no harm outside of non-proper conduct lmao.

I think the entire experience would be redeemed for him with the food though. Idk… he just feels like the type to appreciate a damn good burger SJWKEJD

THE MOST INSANE WALKDOWN😱⚡#fastest #100k #100 #relay #sprinter #sprintin...

[y2ctrlproj]

Quick Draw Game (Idea 2)

The game would essentially copy the Hollywood themed walkdown where two cowboys face each other off in a game of quickdraw. I'd most likely use a gun model for a controller and rig the trigger to shoot in game and maybe make the game track the movements of the gun too depending on how long that takes. When it comes to accessibility options people who aren't able to move their arms as fast or at all I would make an option to change inputs to something like a button or keyboard and instead change the game to a qte and also play and sound when the player needs to pull the trigger. to add difficulty I would make it so that the player can choose how many shots they have and there will fake and real qte where the fake ones are missed and the real ones hit the opponent. in terms of art style I would use black and white as a main color scheme

I know the video isn't particularly a walkdown or standoff but It would look something like this.

I appreciate the vibraphone wholetone walkdown rlm uses when they spin the wheel
