Absolutely NO AI. 100% made by human with free software (LMMS for music, KDEnlive for video, Debian as OS, etc)., BORING STORIES AND STUFF: Hey, happy Halloween everyone! To celebrate, here's something that goes beyond "just spooky/scary music", since it's based on a real story, but not the way "stuff based on real stories" would usually be made. This song was actually made BEFORE the story happened, without any knowledge or expectations of what happened. Then the video was done AFTER the story. Let me explain it simpler: The music was first started sometime around early-mid 2026 and it was extended and published, along with the full album/demo, in early august the same year., The story happened in the latest days of august and happens to be surprisingly accurate with the music structure and style., Now I made the video as a reference to that as well as a Halloween celebration., At this point the few folks who keeps watching my stuff regularly, if anyone, knows about the accident I had 2 months ago, which broke my arm and kept me unable to do even the most basic things for awhile. That happened somewhere in the depths of the swamps during one of my routes. A place I was already familiar with since I visited it a few times before and never had any problem there. That day, however... if I talked all details about the place, the context and all what happened, seen and perceived there... that'd be more than enough material for a horror movie script, lol. Everything was so different... and so creepier... And the situation after that, especially in the first 2 weeks, was so frustrating... I initially made this tune inspired by that place when it was still a nice, peaceful place to visit. In fact I made it the first day I discovered that place, even though it was first done as a shorter track for 2HTS, a weekly music event hosted in ThaSauce, a nice community of musicians I was pleased to participate every time I could. Ironies of life, despite how peaceful the place is, the track was unusually dark and unsettling. The structure happens to be surprisingly accurate with the experience in the accident day as well: starting with the "foreshadow future memories" in a quick way, then going kinda chill, almost close to shoegaze or ambient rock stuff, then going stronger to eventually collapse in an unusually dark, spooky interlude. That interlude may represent the fall moment. After a moment I managed to rise up and keep moving to escape out of that place, and so does the music. The outro may sound like someone died, but fortunately no one did! It was some really difficult weeks but here we are, doing stuff and having fun again. Isn't wonderful? Seriously, it feels so great to be alive and (almost) fully functional again! And so now converting this experience and thoughts into music, video and art and whatever. Maybe it'll look and sound like random, uncohessive nonsense for most people, but that's what it was for me as author. Due to art's own versalitily and freedom of interpretation maybe it'll look, sound and feel like something totally different, I dunno. And in any case it's all welcome. Remember to comment your thoughts if that's the case, btw! Also worth adding I initially made this video as part of a stream show about music and halloween. Specifically for Void Moon, an event in MTHBORD, a community I also "accidentally" joined throughout a link in the website band.codes where I uploaded some of my Bandcamp albums to. A nice place so far, even though it still looks too big to get used to as a newcomer haha. Anyways... I hope you have (or had if you are seeing this later) a nice, spooky and pleasant day. 😃 Sat, 31 Oct 2026 15:34:16 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://peertube.wtf https://peertube.wtf/lazy-static/avatars/45856119-df14-4b5f-bff8-4807ae2cfbd2.png https://peertube.wtf/videos/watch/cd0284dc-f9e5-49fd-acdc-291a8a0a9247 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://peertube.wtf/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
