Hope you're having a nice weekend! Sharing my EP again in case it slipped through :)
Pre-orders really help when the release happens, and I'm planning a listening party (and release!!) for 3/14! Hope to see you there and thanks for the support ❤️
you
So I’ve learned today that it depends on who you ask and some systems use C4 while others use C3!
…I always said C4 because it makes a cool explosion 😅
Not too much time left—if you grab stuff on Bandcamp today the artists get way more money!
oh and my OTHER feedback mix listener person @ericltrombone.com!
that does mean a lot coming from you!
HUGE thanks to
my drummer, Evan Berge
my mixer/producer/husband @ropanuganti.com
my master-er @drewbertisms.bsky.social
my album artist @anddras.bsky.social
my mix feedback listener @sean081799.bsky.social
my mom who is my hero
my dad for getting me that trombone
Y'all are the best ❤️
You can pre-order it RIGHT NOW, RIGHT HERE:

Everyone, I have an original EP.
It's called Aoede Hums, and I've been using it as my personal anthem for almost four years to celebrate my uniqueness and validity as a musician and as a human.
It's dedicated to my dad, who passed away last year but always supported me and my music. Please enjoy.
LMAO
"AI eliminates the need for much of the work formerly done by people" will never be a victory until there's a stable way to support all of the people that formerly did that work
Chris sucks lol
I want to line Cowboy’s cone with a full salad so he has a glorious vegetabled mane
They’d run off with all the solos I guess lol

For @marchcaprice.com this year, I have
- two full tracks of my own (why TF DID I CHOOSE THAT)
- another track I'm playing bone on
- another track I'm (I think) singing on
- some of my most unhinged, stupid, ridiculous work yet lmfao
idk this is my only joke now
2011?! That’s going to be a really fun upgrade for you, congrats 🎉🎉
I still want to make a cover of this hahaha
Long live 2D animation (& practical effects).
BONUS POKÉMON DINNER
@ropanuganti.com made us some curry with Poké Ball rice and a very long Pikachu omelette ❤️ Everything was so good!!
- and finally, I have learned that my favorite Pokémon is Slakoth, who couldn’t even be bothered to get IN the Poké Ball for the logo 😂 I love you Slakoth, and thanks for everything, Pokémon
- I’ve gotten to play PoGo with @insaneintherainmusic.com, @stephofanime.bsky.social, and other friends whose tags I don’t have and it’s been such a good way to settle in on the west coast and make more friends <3
- I got to bond with @laceyjohnsonmusic.bsky.social while playing Pokémon Puzzle League for the first time (PUSHING DOOOWN ON YOU)
- I saw I Choose You! in Japan and understood 90% of it which made me very happy (and that’s where I got the hat)
- I always thought Ash was a hack and never did get into the anime, but I did enjoy watching Team Rocket blasting off again
- I did not understand how to actually play the games until I finished Platinum….which took me 90 hours to beat LOL
- my first Pokémon Center visit was in Nagoya, I loved it
- I played Red when I was 8, but when Yellow came out and I learned that Pikachu would follow you around, I lost my mind
- I laughed so hard when Mankey got mad at you in Pokémon Snap in the canyon level
- “yOu WeRe CloSe!” will always be burned into my memory
I’m definitely nostalgic for a lot of the old tunes, and I covered one for trombones that I really like, so here’s that first!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POKÉMON 🎉
I’ve been around this series for pretty much my whole life, so here are some memories and also a cheesy selfie
I love how the pose is very nearly identical, that’s impressive
we’re learning lol
A cat sleeping. He is fully stretched with his belly showing, and one paw is stretched above his head.
I hope your day can be slightly brightened by this #cat who lives in my home
