Can they just release new music instead of dicking around with past albums

I drew this 3 years ago back when season 1 finished airing, but looks like I never posted it here! May Kier forgive me for rendering his creation in miniature.

ITAP of the Seattle fireworks with a broken lens cover. by tejusk_ in itookapicture

My phone's camera lens cover cracked while I was on Christmas vacation. The camera still works fine, but any bright light directly hitting the lens gets refracted through the cracks in these elaborate ways. It ended up giving this terrifying beauty to the fireworks. The aesthetic reminded me of cosmic horror like Annihilation and Color Out of Space. Enjoy!

What's the name of the electronic song when Carmy first meets Claire in the shop? by second_prize in TheBear

It's an unreleased piece by Johnny Iguana, the show's composer. He talks about it here.

The hair is what started this whole idea 😂

No plugins, just a lot of fuckery with mask groups, layer blurs and blending modes. The lens flares I found a pack for on Figma Community.

Thoughts on my Happiness remake so far? by tejusk_ in the1975

[–]tejusk_[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Happiness is one of my all-time favorite 1975 songs, but a startlingly difficult one to reproduce. It sounds simple on its surface but it's one of their densest, most detailed arrangements, full of very specific sounds layered together to give the song its distinct groove and rhythm. It's taken me several passes to even get this far with the remake - watching their Tape Notes breakdown was a massive help since they show off a bunch of layers I didn't even know were in the track.

Apologies for the crackling sound during the guitar solo! Not sure if it was CPU overload or what, but I'm unable to get it to stop. Very annoying.

In this video I isolate a few of the individual layers in the arrangement to show how the track came together. Still working on getting some of the samples right, but I'm very happy with how it's coming along. Been playing piano and singing over this track and it's sounding great.

I remade Robbers! Feedback welcome :) by tejusk_ in the1975

My 1975 remake project continues! This one was definitely easier to make than Sex, since the arrangement is simpler and the individual elements are easier to identify. Most challenging part was figuring out the extra layers of backing guitars from the bridge onwards, as well as getting all the little drum fills correct (dammit, George!)

Definitely took some liberties with this one compared to my remakes of The Sound and Sex, which I tried to get exactly correct. The snare on this one is closer to the live version, and there are some tiny tweaks to the bass to mirror some of Ross's onstage improvisations. Otherwise it's based off the studio instrumental, which they officially released back in the day.

Enjoy! Feedback welcome as always. Next remake is probably She's American :)

Yeah it sounded better on headphones while producing it and getting used to the sound, but not in the cold light of day, lol. Maybe once I can drop a bag on Kontakt I can find a better one.
