Thank you all so much for your support throughout the making of this video. It was a really difficult production and I'm so proud to have had so many people stick with me while I got it done. It really means a lot.
Thank you again for your confidence!

Hey everyone,
This is just a notice to let you know that my new video on musical elitism will be released next week on Friday (April 8).
The video is going to be somewhere between 50m and 1h 10m in length. I have not actually stitched it all together yet to really know how long it i...
Since I shared the storyboard for this section a few months ago, I thought it would be fun to share the final product. This was by far the most time consuming and difficult section to put together.
The overall video is not far off completion and I'll be releasing it in the next 2 (or possi...
Hi everyone,
This video is coming along nicely now and I think it is reasonable to assume that I'll be able to release it by the end of this month.
While you wait, here are 3 chapters I completed recently that occur early on in the video. I hope you enjoy them.
The first chapter...

Hey all, as I mentioned before, this video is quite massive in scale and will take a good bit more time to create. While you are waiting, I thought I would share a few sections in advance, beginning with this one. It is a short section that occurs mid-way through the video.
It also gives y...
Hello everyone! I thought you might enjoy this clip from my upcoming video, which is in its raw storyboard stage. Since the final product will be quite large in scale and varied in subject matter, I've decided to enlist the help of an illustrator and editor. This allows me to continue refining my...
2021-12-07 11:03:18 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
I wanted to give a quick update about the progress I am making with this video. When I pitched this idea (along with several others) for you to vote on, I had a reasonable sense of what I wanted to say. In particular, I wanted to push back on a tendency to use the term 'elitis...
2021-10-24 13:02:11 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone,
So... that MIDI chord pack video was a nightmare to make. I'm glad the reception has been so good but I'm also VERY glad to see the back of it :)
So, what's next?
When I asked you to vote on my next video a few months ago, the results were... interesting. Initi...
Thanks so much to all of you for sustaining me your support while I made this video. I really appreciate it and I'm pumped to begin working on the next one right away.
More info about that really soon.

Just so you know, we've set up a new music listening stream on Discord called Gramophone, where we listen to and discuss music submitted by members of the Discord server. Gramophone takes place at 20:00 UTC every second Saturday.
Tonight's stream is live now!

Hey everyone. Just to let you know that my video on the Unison MIDI chord pack will be out on Friday next week. It has been a very difficult and time-consuming project. Unexpectedly so.
It needed a ton of effects work, design work, a few practical effects (which turned out to be more tricky...

I thought you might find it interesting to see how I am sourcing usable footage for this video.
Since Unison have a history of issuing DMCA takedown notices on anyone who publishes a criticism of them, I thought it would be advisable (and fun) to find creative ways to talk about them witho...
Because Unison Audio are VERY trigger happy with Takedown notices, I've had to think outside the box a little in order to describe their sales tactics (probably the most fun part of the video).
Here's a look at my new MIDI chord pack company name. My reasons for choosing this name will be ...
Hey everyone. So my MIDI chord pack video is going really well. I'm pretty sure you'll all get a big kick out of it.
In this case, the moment I started poking around, I noticed all kinds of interesting aspects of Unison and their business model. As a result, I've done a bunch of interviews...
For those who are looking forward to my upcoming video about the Unison MIDI chord pack, here's a wonderful contribution from Ben Levin, who'll be featuring as one of my 'influencers'.

Hey everyone,
Thanks a lot for voting on what my next video should be. The top two (to my surprise) ended up being 'Elitism' and 'MIDI Packs'. At the time I began writing my script for MIDI Packs, it was the #1 choice. However, 'Elitism' has since just slightly popped in front.

Hey everyone. Just a quick update. The response to the last video was great. It's still chugging away getting decent views and I'm now quickly getting the script together for my next video.
This next one will be weird. First: it needs to get out quickly.... there's an urgency to release is ...

Hey everyone, thanks so much for the support over the last few months. Hope you enjoy it!
I've already sketched out my next two videos, which I think will be released in relatively short order. 2021 is already off to a much better start than 2020 in terms of output. I mean... anything is be...
