They fired so many artists over this too. People who helped make the game iconic were tossed out on the street because the Slop Faucet could do it "decent enough". If you still play Fortnite, you're funding the hyper-acceleration of AI replacing Artists in Gaming

I don’t need any more reasons to despise these pathological liars, but this one hits different. I remember exactly where I was. Ninth grade, teacher announced it in 5th period English class. Lots of NYC commuters in my LI town, several of them died. Not even a national tragedy is safe from his ego.

Another high profile resignation from leading AI company Anthropic. This is the warning to the world he wrote this evening on Twitter. "The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade."

Thirty-four days before she reported to prison, Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes gave Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim access to document her every move. That turned into a three-year project, and A24 will release the resulting documentary this October.

Man what a brutal week. RIP Tim Curry, absolute comedic legend and the source of so many laughs from my childhood and teenage years especially 💔

Some people might not be aware, but it is entirely possible that without Dolly Parton we wouldn’t have had a COVID vaccine. She partly funded Moderna’s research and gave the largest individual contribution to make it all happen. Just gives you an idea of the kind of person she was.

I have a very important announcement: I have gotten every achievement in Cook Serve Delicious 3. I need you to trust me when I say this is extremely impressive and I am a hardcore gamer

#TBT to one of the most face-melting concerts I've ever sung, Ace Combat: Three Aces with @thetiberiansons.bsky.social! Loved hollering rock music at full blast on this one. Shoutout to my fellow guest musicians Videri Strings, @thegamebrass.com and @dompalombimusic.bsky.social!

During the DK Rap on our last stream show, Ben detailed some notes for us about "style" and "grace". I think we all learned something that day. #videogamemusic #donkeykong #twitch

Cave Rave is one of our favorite pieces to play: our wonderful keyboardist and arranger Ben Wallace transformed a less-than-a-minute long cave theme from Skies of Arcadia and transformed it into a 9-minute prog rock masterpiece/nightmare. Here's a part of our performance of it at this year's VGMCon!

Allow us to Rave a bit about Cave Rave! Here's Doug talking about the part of the piece that's most challenging for him. #vgm #fusion #progrock #skiesofarcadia #vibraphone #whatisthataxylophoneorsomething

New remix by Theophany just dropped: Forest Temple from Ocarina of Time! This was a super fun collaboration, we did a lot of experimentation with vocal lines and Theophany turned it into this gorgeous hypnotic swirl. We’re so happy with how it turned out, hope you enjoy! Link below 🔗

Went to Lowe’s looking for a voltage meter to test my broken central AC, asked an employee if they could help me choose the correct one from the several options available. First thing they did was thrust a tablet in front of my face, telling me to “ask Milo,” the in-store AI. Just kill me.

The @officialgdc.bsky.social concert this year was fire!! Here's a short clip from one of my favorite moments: performing "Alicia" from Clair Obscur: E33. This song has been stuck in my head since the game came out--so magical to perform it live with my talented colleagues in the orchestra!

We won!!! Congratulations to @thegamebrass.com and @lauraintravia.bsky.social for the Best Game Music Cover for our Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 cover at The Game Audio Network Guild Awards! Singing with Laura is always an absolute joy, and the source material is an utter delight. We Continue. 🫡

Looking forward to #GDC in less than a week!! This year I'll be performing again for @awintory.bsky.social's GDC Mainstage Concert on flute, piccolo, recorder, and vocals! Otherwise I'll just be moseying around the con floor--come up and say hi, can't wait to hear what you've been up to!

New headshots! Proof that I do know how to take photos without making that one stupid face

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children. But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

Huge congrats to Carlos on the release of his soundtrack for Battle Suit Aces! 🔥 I had the pleasure of singing on a couple of his bangers—so cool to see so many fellow VGM musicians in the credits as well. Congrats to the whole team at Trinket, looking forward to playing! 🥳

New soundtrack release day! I'm very happy to finally be able to share the complete soundtrack to the game Battle Suit Aces, which launched today! I've been working on this for the past year and a half, and it's a love letter to the classic 80's / 90's anime orchestra sound!

This is honestly worse than deleting the post earlier today. Rather than making a promise to honor a truly excellent policy to always program new bands, they are simply changing it to something worse. "We enforce our values when we feel like it" is not the solution; it's exactly the problem.

However, we've since updated that page with the guidelines that are in line with our internal policies over the last few years. We're genuinely sorry about the confusion. Bit Brigade is the only exception to this rule this year, and we're extremely excited to hear their new MMX set!
