oh man. its been almost a year since i saw the clockmaker’s daughter live.
watching Nile red extras new video on his electron microscope and I can stop thinking about skinning a robot, pulling out meters of wire bundle like you would the intestines of a 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 animal, Totally Crazy Day (Total Clanker Death not the other one)

Main character of a fantasy dystopian book I’m working on. I won’t be posting anything but character art for this so I don’t get burned out
“There’s enough margin for all the leverage.”
“There’s enough margin for all the leverage.”

opening with “Fine Day” is so choice. this day rly is fine.
the next banger is “Get In Get Out” which has a really cool groove.
and then there’s the redbook…orchestral :|
there’s a bunch of midi rock tracks too. AKCD3001_19 is the first cool one.
AKCD3001_23 has a bass solo in the middle so that one wins my heart

this is incredibly…. building railroad music.
by all measures it’s quite fine, i just dont like it :|
except for “Rapid Progress”, which slaps.

all redbook and all like… kinda middling?
occasionally it’ll hit a nice beat but it’s. idk. just alright.
f.ex try the lowkey houseish beat of GLCD4001_18. it’s breezy!
i appreciate the take at 2unlimited style rave in GLCD4001_21 but. the vocals :|

that opening is right of the like… what… 1930s? cartoon ass beat. (muted trumpet and such)
yeah it’s mostly chat. cheese.
but then HCD4045_22 is kinda drunken and off-kilter and whoops thats my fav now.

i do love when composers put in a house beat. its not very housy but like. it tries yknow? NAPR-1042_30
NAPR-1042_34 has a really nice atmosphere. mystical in a way.
NAPR-1042_35 has a fun beat. like yeah slap that slap bass. but then there’s this almost cheesy lead? orch hits going wild? idk i like it lol
there’s some tracks that do nothing for me but arent exactly bad either. NAPR-1042_37 is pretty straightforward rockin stuff

HECD5025_04 says “dusty attic” in a quirky way. love that bassline vibrato lol
the next several tracks are kind of variations on this. i think i like 04 the most…
after that it’s kinda. vaguely goofy late night show band ensemble stuff?
i dig some of the less goofy tracks, like HECD5025_14, which feels a bit like a “let’s solve this puzzle energetically” kinda thing.
or HECD5025_21, which… ok that’s still a little goofy but a more serious beat butts in occasionally
Ngl i think its kinda funny that as far as we know like no one gets arrested at the end of the clockmakers daughter AFTER SOMEONE WAS FUCKING MURDERED LMAO
Like nah everyones punishment is that they now have to live with their actions and will never be able to forget as constances ghost haunts the town square and Will literally comes back to life to haunt them and constantly remind them too lmao like i love the levels of petty that he goes to the town square EVERY YEAR to remind them of what they did lmao

GED-1010_02 is in 7, right? you hear that right?
regardless that’s a really good little jam!!
after that it’s an OP or ED, and then a copy of that rly good jam. so. hm. ok.

??? is that a sailor moon parody or a slightly off cover? lmao?
GECD-1012_33 is a clean sfx-free version. i love this.
the rest is fine. i kinda like the GECD-1012_35 the [second-]most. eroscene soft guitar thing. (this is allegedly a nsfw game)

actual oldschool rave!!!
but also… just insanely good grooves. IGCD3006_06 will keep your head up high during a marathon. maybe not the best match of imagery for these vibes but its like. groovin.
IGCD3006_04 could be a plaid b-side. i love this
Currently snowing ouside and i decided to go out cuz why not and probably had the WORST TCD Scar shift of. My. Life.
Idk why I haven’t done this yet but oh well
