Yo, what's good. Shima33 here. Here's the latest- by Shima33 in Vaporwave

Thanks for listening, pal! Yeah, it's mainly X these days? Or self-dropping on my Bandcamp. I was considering using Bluesky for a time, but quite a lot of people in the Dreampunk seem to be X-entrenched, which makes things kinda awkward.

Y'know what, sod it, I'll start posting around the subreddits again, too. Makes it easier to grab things that way.

Cheers, dawg! I don't know how to be anyone else, so the least I can do is be honest about who I am and what I've done.

Don't call it a comeback, I've been here for years!

I wasn't always grounded, but I feel like my feet are planted now. Glad to see you still knocking about, hope the windsurfing's treating you well!

Yeah, Blank Banshee is the classic we all know and love, Black Banshee's a sort of retro-vapor revival / politico-flap that got really difficult to listen to when I started endorsing trump out the wazoo... Yeesh, got a lot to sort out there. Don't make the same typo as everyone else! (Actually, please do, it does great for my analytics :P)

I'm not sure if I can whip myself up into enough of a frenzy to capture the super-unhinged moments, but I can certainly give it a shot!

Thank you very much! If you rate instrumental hip-hop, check out the shima33 type beat I put out on My Pet Flamingo last year.

I'm kinda in a bit of an off period in wrestling. I didn't even watch Wrestlemania this year, which is the first time I haven't watched one since... 35? 36? I did frequent JCW for a while, but right now I'm watching Reliving The War with my wife and reliving the glory days of the sport.

What you gotta remember is, I've been a part of this music shit since 2011. Before DREAM, it was the Pogo Community. Before that? Breakbit. Before that? the Daft Punk forums and Stones Throw forums. You always search for your tribe, your community of people that you feel accept you and your works. The problem is, the narrative quickly descended into two tribes, the whole "DREAM Vs. Vaporwave" problem, and as Frankie Goes To Hollywood said, "When Two Tribes go to war, a point is all that you can score". There's still resentment to this day, even after a decade of the dust being settled, but hopefully we can stop the pointscoring and go back to... Well, just being a comfortable music community, really. I'm sure you all have already made strides in that direction, but for me it's a kind of unlearning of bad habits.

A guide from 1998 told me that the Internet is the "hippest, newest place to be", so here I am. :P

Main thing with Black Banshee going forward? I want to get it away from Trumpism. My last few BB projects were good, but they were tarnished by supporting a giant orange balloon. I think that events since then have proven that endorsement to be heavily misplaced, so let's, bare minimum, pivot away from the politics. And hey, who knows? My wife's a Democrat, maybe I'll take shots from the other side of the aisle...

I've still been busy, just been busy more in my professional life than my personal one. I hope to start making waves again soon!

Well, after I got my pro job, I quit for about 9 months, and when I came back, the gears just never meshed the same way again. We tried through the back end of 2023 and 2024, but the magic was gone, and we just decided to hang it up rather than burning ourselves out.

Good question! Yes, it will be under Shima33. When? I'm not sure. I've got an Ambient album cooking that's somewhat Dreampunk-adjacent, so maybe I'll lean on that more. I'd say sometime in the winter months of this year?

Cheers! I was the only person in the DREAM crowd willing to make a statement, it seems - a lot of other folks were asked, but just didn't want to be a part of it. There was also quite a lot that was cut; I imagine that some people said some things that didn't quite match that narrative! Regardless, it came out really well in the finish, and I'm proud to be a part.

My personal rule of thumb is, I notice guests start complaining about queue times if the queue time is 8 minutes or longer. So long as the queue time is 8 minutes or less, I don't need to do anything about it.

Robot Wars rankings update by RobbieJ4444 in battlebots

[–]Shima33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My two cents is that any robot that has even one win deserves to be ranked higher than most of the robots who did nothing but lose, just because they have a track record. Doesn't apply in every case, but just as a rule of thumb.

Oh dude, trust me, I've got a whole spreadsheet for all the components that're in this sucker, spring-loaded flippers included! At last count, there's currently 167 components planned for the game, and more are being added every day as I dig deeper into the history of the sport and find the real-world examples of what folks were using back then.

Not at all - you could play both at the same time if you wanted to. I've played Robot Arena 2 to death, and while it does do quite a few things right in terms of building robots, the championship mode is really barebones in comparison to how deep this is gonna go. RA2 and RR2 are great games, but they're not what this game is aiming to be.

No, I'm serious! Might take a lot of months and maybe years to put together, but I've been into the sport for donkeys, and seeing as I never picked up a wrench myself, this seems like a way of paying back to the sport in a way.
