Starting a little earlier than usual, since I wanna get as much as I can done, and I won't be able to go super duper long today (got something to take care of around lunchtime)

Planning to release the video my latest arrangement from VVGO's latest mixtape real soon. For those who don't already know, three hints:

1) Rhythm game music (because it's me)
2) Boss song (the mixtape theme)
3) To quote one of the musicians who played on it (see image):

Message that says: "I hate myself. Started practicing K part and played the rhytmn so wrong that I played Titanic. 😂 (soon stuff from me!)"
