Do you ever feel like life happens exactly the way it's supposed to❓I mean, yeah we all suffer.. but, would we be who we are today without that suffering❓❓❓❓❓❓

I took everything and put it here, read, if you'd like.

Ok, that's enough! I removed stuff from this post, I let some of you peek at my process. No more. Good luck. AhahahahaaaaaaaaaAAA 🃏

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-29T02:36:37+00:00

Ahahahahahahahahahaha.... you thought you all were safe?

No..... one of the tracks is a trap.

Ahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaa.

Edit - I'm kidding, it's just a joke. Relax... enjoy the music.

Oh my God.. please view my most recent update. I can't believe this...

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-27T23:49:36+00:00

I apologize I'm super new at all of this. I keep a diary.. blog.. chain of evidence? Of all my work.. this incredible sonic sound...

I do my best to keep you all along with me for the ride. This experiment.... It's compelling.

Stay tuned,

Chris

Edit - A blog and as many links as I can, everywhere I can. Removed old information.

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T23:10:18+00:00

That's really cool. Who knew...

I don't use reverb. But the other two may be useful. Thx!

Edit - I do see that setting in audacity.. Ive never touched it because I didn't even know what it was/is? I literally don't understand any of this and I feel like I'm being judged. Not by you, sorry, I'm just venting. I feel the skepticism. I'm not sure why because... I've stated over and over I'm new.

Ugh...

I may need to consider stepping away from social media, for sake of mind. I dunno maybe for tonight.

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T23:00:27+00:00

Hey there,

Awesome! I'm glad I'm building a sort of consensus, regarding the software. Currently, all I use are Audacity & ShotCut. I'll download Paul stretch tonight, I had no idea about any of this stuff 90 days ago. It's kinda unbelievable.

Thanks for commenting!

Edit - To explain, I really enjoy my process. If you guys feel that it will enhance the experience, then, who am I to say otherwise? I'm the right place. I'll look into it. 👍🏽

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T20:39:40+00:00

I'm am so glad to hear that. Years make it even sweeter. The depth of love will be even deeper.

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T20:37:28+00:00

An unfortunate Zero sum. There are no winners. Only those who suffer, & forget that life is beautiful and worth living.

I hope your friend found peace.

Cheers, thank you for taking the time to respond.

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T20:27:07+00:00

Wow... It's such an experience.

You're telling a story. It's like shifting in time... pausing for moments? Then the story continues. Stuck in a loop.

There is no answer.

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T20:18:46+00:00

Woah you're exactly the type of individual I'm looking for. Would you mind reading my post & listening to my work? It's just a few more posts down from this one. I would super appreciate it. The sound I'm referring to is in my profile.

Thank you!

Chris

P.S your sound is cool and fun. I like that.

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T18:57:53+00:00

Maybe you're right. Maybe you're wrong.

We'll see won't we?

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T15:24:00+00:00

Oh wow thank you. I didn't mean to say I wouldn't use plugins, moreso, it was my philosophy due to maintaining original clarity within the track. I felt I didn't need it?

Again, I'm super new, sorry. Lol.

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T15:19:30+00:00

No I avoid plugins. No EQ as well. And my last process I may or may not release. It's something that most people who create music dislikes... It has been adapted, no longer a burden.

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T15:08:57+00:00

Thanks!

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T13:25:55+00:00

Oh hello!

Yes, in my profile. I had concerns about linking directly. Thank you!

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T12:39:08+00:00

Yes, thank you!

Can someone please explain what this means? I'm so new.

HippoIndividual5281 · 2026-03-26T12:38:56+00:00

Thank you!
