I've been looking over my blood test results while waiting for my appointment. It looks like I've had high red blood cell count since 2020 :/ The number has never been in the normal range, but it goes up and down.

I really hope this visit isn't just "See you in 6 months". I'll be upset. #blutoid

Yesterday was pretty uneventful for me. I spent most of it asleep, not really stressing about what day it was (28th year since my father passed in case you missed it).

I usually post something online about how it went down. About how he died. I might post something soon. I also didn't drink.

Man I don't think I'm doing well health-wise. Might need to see my primary doctor again to talk about some new lumps popping up on my body.

First I gotta talk to my hematologist about my blood tomorrow.

Today is 28 years since my father died. He was a great man. A combination of caring for and teaching me, but not controlling what I do, so I learned stuff on my own as well.

Took care of 4 kids by himself for 7 years after my mother died. I hate that he's not alive today. I miss him.

Shaking things up a bit. Decided to move to a different music DAW. I had been using a discontinued version of Cakewalk Sonar Platinum, and now I made the jump to Cubase Pro 15.

I'm hoping the change will help me learn what I need to do in order to make better music. But 1st I gotta learn basics.

Had bloodwork done today, and the numbers look pretty rough. The combination of elevated red blood cells and other new elevated things suggest I could be fighting some kind of infection, or possibly polycythemia vera.

I have a video visit with my hematologist on Monday. Will let you know #blutoid

I don't think my music is ever going to really impress anyone, but I at least hope some of it is fun to listen to.

I'm brainstorming ways to make my music more interesting. If you got any ideas, I'm interested.

I feel like maybe I should stop drinking. While I only drink 1 bottle a month (usually lasting a few days), it just makes me sleepy, and I wake up feeling stupid as hell.

I also end up sleeping most of the day. Doesn't seem worth it. I'll save this last bit of honey bourbon for November 9th.

Eye of the Beholder 🎵

I consider this a boss battle song. I wrote it in 2014 for the album Ad Lib Vol 1 Part 2.

Musictoid: Donut Dodo OST - Fun House Fiasco

I'm addicted to this album (links to a playlist). By Sean "CosmicGem" Bialo. Really awesome chiptunes.

One To Be Feared 🎵

Happy Halloween :) Sharing something I wrote back in 2016 for the holiday. Got some spooky elements to it. Probably not my best horror song, but hey :p

I probably mentioned it at some point (or multiple times...), but it's wild to me that I've been writing music for almost 30 years. That's a hell of a long time :P

What's it like inside your head?

Mine? If I'm being honest...

Theta 🎵

Written in 2011 for the album "From Alpha to Omega". It was written based on the piano riff you hear in the beginning (I could perform it live, although I'm pretty sure I didn't in this version). A bit long, but it goes places.

I'm pretty sure I had a dream recently where I hung out with people that don't really exist. Like a group of maybe 3 or 4 other "friends" just hanging out. It made me sad, because I don't have anything like that.

I barely have any contact with anyone, except a few of you guys, which means a lot.

I'm sad that I cannot play FFXIV because of my social anxiety, but I'm really happy that I made it to the end of 7.0 (Dawntrail). I would've liked to have kept going, I just can't group up with strangers.

One of the best gaming experiences of my life, especially Shadowbringers into Endwalker.

Against the Wind (No Rush) 🎵

From 2023's album ADBC II. Probably one of my favorite variations of the song, which is normally a video game drum and bass track.

Is it weird that I don't like the idea of making money off my own music? I make music because I love music, and making it is fun as hell. I'd probably be a video game music composer if money wasn't involved. I don't want to take gigs away from other composers, though. Not that I "can" if I wanted to

Getting close to November 9th, the day my father died back in 1997.

I almost always write a song for my father, and back in 2022 I released a full album called "Dear Father". I might have something for this year, although nothing is planned. If it happens, it'll be spontaneous.
October 25, 2025 at 8:21 AM
Man, I don't like not having a music project to work on. I guess I could do an ADBC IV? Alphadeus Banger Collection go!

Or CHIPS X, why not. 3 CHIPS albums in one year is not too many :p j/k

Aliens Have Penetrated Our Base (2001?) 🎵

You probably won't ever hear this song elsewhere. I don't think it's on my channel. I wrote it in 2001 or so, and is the 1st time I used "loops" with my recorded performances. It was one of the eJay programs I had back then. It's not on an album, either.
October 23, 2025 at 4:20 PM
I want to write more music. I feel like for me, there isn't much time left (dramatic eh). Just a hunch.

I only have 1 solid idea for an album (based on music I wrote for my father), but I don't know if I could plan that one out properly.

I am having an extremely productive year. Proud of myself.
