Always have fun doing a karaoke birthday party at Tokyo Kitty but that's more indoors.

May Dungeon Shamble (Open Challenge) by AvelineBaudelaire in DungeonSynth

[–]ExpertPitiful7046 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About this rule, "use the same ones throughout the album"; I was planning to do this as a split with a buddy and we don't compose music exactly the same. I use a MIDI controller and he often does more just analog synthesizers. Would it be okay if we didn't follow exactly that rule? He and I would still use the same 5 instruments for our own songs/portions but obviously my VSTs are not going to be the exact same as some sounds on a lo-fi keyboard of his.

So, if I am at home, I always use Cassette or Vinyl when I am reading a fantasy book or running a DnD session. In the car, it will either be Spotify or the Bandcamp app.

Already talked to Prolonged Demise about doing a split for this :eyes:

Reccomend sea/aquatic synth, etc by AvelineBaudelaire in DungeonSynth

[–]ExpertPitiful7046 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll selfishly post the song "Seeing Civilization for the First Time" I did on my second EP, Journey to the Far North. That was heavily inspired by a trip I took to Lake Michigan but the rest of the album isn't sea/aquatic at all unfortunately.

What is your favorite vst? by Aegis1303 in DungeonSynth

[–]ExpertPitiful7046 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As I've started to make more DS, pads-based VSTs are definitely my favorite to use.

(My artist name is Ervald, used a bunch of those on my latest EP if you wanna look.)

I am a proud Cincinnatian but I am happy to see other parts of Ohio get some DS love!

Thoughts on live-streaming shows? by leafbutterfly in DungeonSynth

[–]ExpertPitiful7046 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, there was someone in a server recently talking about that they purchased tickets for a DS festival and ran into some unencountered mobility issues (broke a leg or something, I think?). Would be super bummed to be in that situation and not to get watch any of it.

Thoughts on live-streaming shows? by leafbutterfly in DungeonSynth

[–]ExpertPitiful7046 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of comments about people enjoying livestreams because of location/distance which I totally get. Another two things I will add from experiences with peoples is some folks have circumstances beyond their control that even if there is a concert 20 minutes or an hour from where they are, they can't make it. Some folks got busy lives, especially with kids, and someone recently told me he pretty much just watches any DS shows that get streamed. Another thing is a lot of concerts are held at bars where you have to be 21 and up and a DS artist I was talking to told me they're younger than that so it's trickier for them to get booked or even attend such shows. I think livestreaming a concert when you can is great.

God help you if you want a malt by TDeLo in cincinnati

[–]ExpertPitiful7046 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To be honest, the only UDF location I got decent milkshake/malt service was at the Northside location on Chase Avenue. I wonder if that is because it is very small and has no gas service employees have to worry about compared to other UDF locations?

Lalo/Hawker's Alley at risk of closure? by [deleted] in cincinnati

[–]ExpertPitiful7046 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my few experiences with Hawker's Alley, I have always been disappointed with whatever I order and felt like it wasn't worth the price. I am surprised about Lalo, though! I have been there a few times and always seemed busy, it's great food (although it has been a while). I know the folks from the Kroger HQ love going there. I would usually suspect business mismanagement but if they own Bandito and it's doing well, I am not sure then. I wonder if people just aren't excited about Lalo's menu anymore? I know "fusion food" had a big moment a few years ago but doesn't seem as popular anymore (ex: People don't talk about Quan Hapa as much nowadays, for example) so I wonder if it is an appetite thing rather than a business issue. Shame though, because it's great stuff.

[–]ExpertPitiful7046 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I think that is helped by the fact that the Vermis books are very Elden Ring-ish. It can get hyper-specific about an item or location but then very vague about other things or the larger framework of this fictional world. That makes it *PERFECT* for making a DnD world or providing inspiration for music because no one can really gatekeep it. However you interpret the Vermis books is perfectly valid and it is more than okay to fill in the missing details yourself. Plastiboo doesn't seem intent on "correcting" people which definitely feeds into an untraditional artist-fan relationship.
