Aidan

been having fun in recent months just recording single-track or overdubbing hardware... closest I'll ever get to the pod era ween.

working towards having a critical mass of rough-around-the-edges demos so I can just slap em all on an album

fuck I was leaning towards the third so we need a tiebreaker

what's the play if I wanna get back into doodling? buy a sketchbook? use my wacom pad from 2012? paint the walls with the blood of my enemies?

god this one is such a classic that I've come around to loving it. it's so bad lol

told a friend that a boss theme in metroid zero mission reminded me of this and he named the speedrun split "rad grav"

damn Toronto kinda scary and ominous actually I might just go home where there's sunshine and rainbows

happy mario day remember to play cool smw romhacks and super mario maker 2 troll levels

be sure to join their discord to ensure they ask me difficult questions about geopolitics!!

coming up THIS SUNDAy...

we've got @girambquamb.com talking about MANY MINI TYPING GAMES, the game that has revolutionized the microgame sphere

and more importantly, it's fun

another week another compo

had to bust out the hardware for something this dark

girambquamb.com/music/compos

a collage of stock images in which furniture is tipping over onto children

a moment of silence, please. for the many lives lost in order to get stock photos for anti-tip furniture anchors.

stumbled across some old video files and it's kinda insane that mmtg ever looked like this lol

proof that you've gotta start somewhere

yeah been a while since a game has had me hooked enough to stay up until my eyes are burning... and it still feels like there's so much more it's honestly crazy

I have to come clean... I bought a full price switch 2 game...... a pokemon game...........

pokopia does kinda rule so far

a lot of hardcore boardgame fans don't like this one, but it's been a staple among my friend group for literal years.

I like to describe it as magic the gathering mario party...

got it in my head that it'd be dope to get a suitcase setup for small synths, mixer, etc and get some songs ready for an open mic or something

ended up not playing games but I did learn that the seqtrak got a huge update a lil while ago and suddenly it's 10x more viable as the brain for a dawless setup

not a spectacular brain mind you, but I had fun

been getting too comfy, so reminder that I made a cool game and it's very cool and you should buy it :D

and this next part is a long shot, but if you're up to it feel free to send me $1,000,000 dollars as well

the kind of evening where I'm gonna have to choose two (2) of: hardware jam, play video games, and eat dinner

why is life so hard...........

GirambQuamb Guy who does thing

it's Bandcamp Friday btw so feel free to buy my game's soundtrack or my funny "concept album" or the time in 2023 I wrote a song a day for an entire month

girambquamb.bandcamp.com

canadian gacha season (tim hortons roll up the rim) used to be so much better. I swear most losses used to at least get you like a small coffee or a donut.

as long as everyone's doing this and giving me an excuse to make a chart of games....

lots I could've swapped for other games, but this feels the most "these games mean a lot to me"

thinking of becoming evil. disregarding my fellow man, being unpleasant to be around, muddying the waters with regards to my controversial actions. that sort of stuff.

thoughts?

day two of my work week and I just wanna stay home and write shitty music

not gonna lie I just saw the headline but the argument is the same: things that aren't human can't hold copyright

say what you will about the last two decades, but at least we live in a world where we can say

"artificial intelligence isn't afforded copyright of its generated works due to a precedent set by a monkey named Naruto"

and be correct!

haven't jammed in a while but it's the first 303 day since I got the behringer clone so I cleared out all the clutter blocking the synth closet and cranked this out

td-3 (acid-y goodness) + po-32 (funny drums)

I hardly get games at release nowadays. equal parts disinterest and being broke - so many older games I've gotta get to too

but when I've waited years and years I can't help myself... that and 2026 has a few me-coded releases lined up lol

idk if it's an attention span or executive dysfunction thing or what, but I just can't grind games like I used to
