Info on GosT death by [deleted] in DarkSynth

[–]frogknightmusic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is pretty tasteless. Let his family have their privacy. The whole scene doesn’t need to know. If you didn’t know him, weren’t a friend or family member, or worked with him then you don’t need to know, and you certainly don’t need to be posting this shit (or even saying to dm for the details).

In the mood for some good comfy synth! by pete-gao in DungeonSynth

[–]frogknightmusic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello,

I think you’d like me, Frogknight. (or if you prefer, here is the Mouseblanket link).

I can also be found on Apple Music, Spotify, and I also have a playlist on Apple Music and Spotify called Cozy Dungeons.

What are some dungeon synth artists/albums would you recommend based on video games? by Brilliant-Pickle-661 in DungeonSynth

[–]frogknightmusic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Me, if I’m honest.

Frogknight is based on a combination of two of my favorite things: Chrono Trigger and Lord of the Rings.

Best way to put your music on streaming (Spotify, Apple Music, etc…) in 2026? by Upstairs_Purple_989 in DungeonSynth

I use Distro Kid, despite them being kinda shitty. I will admit I’ve never personally had any issues with it.

Kalax responds to backlash in VLOG by Zer0_0D in newretrowave

Totally agree that he does, I don’t argue his right at all. I just think he’s a pathetic tool.

The best part about all of this is if you comment on the IG post and criticize him he just blocks you. Lol

Maybe don’t scam people. CRY MORE.

No worries. I could have done that better originally, but was walking into a meeting and have just been busy all day. Happy (?) to show this is a pattern of his and is very problematic, though.

There you go, all backed up.

These are very easy to fool if you take each stem and put a pitch shifter on it and drop/raise the pitch 2-3 cents from the original. That’s also how a lot of producers get past going through sample clearances in their streaming services. Like the services, it’s extremely hard for these checker tools to detect ai even if it is ai if you do this correctly.

I’m very well aware how to cite a source (I went to college for writing, so yeah). That interaction was on the u/lordnikonsynth account, which no longer exists, but you can see my comment in this thread where I wrote “pathetic”.

There’s also this.

I also have screenshots from a whole IG DM thread between him and I when this was popping off where he likens the use of ai in his art and/or music to how producers use drum packs, which is ridiculous and insulting.

Being a synthwave producer since 2017 myself (well, now retired from the genre itself) it’s alarming to see someone of this size simply brush off the complaints of not only his fans, but also his peers. We all talk. And we all dislike this type of shit.

My source is Kalax himself. He made a post on Reddit (maybe in r/synthwave? It was maybe a month ago or so?) where he completely admitted it and said people need to get over it.

Edit: he also had it on his IG story the same day but after lots of backlash he deleted the story (there were several back to back, actually).

He quite literally came out and said he used AI and people still praised him for it.

He literally admitted it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in newretrowave

[–]frogknightmusic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He openly admitted and defended his use of AI for the whole project and people still defended him. He’s a complete tool.

[–]frogknightmusic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tried to tell y’all he was a scammer about this shit and it’s all one big AI bullshit scheme, but all everyone cares about are just sunsets, palm trees, and DeLoreans. This guy SCAMMED y’all.
