I arranged a @mistermetals idea for a Kollywood (Tamil cinema) theme song a couple of days back
Curious to know what @v and others think about listening to something like this casually or at a festival

As popular as Cursor and Claude are, both are still insanely underrated
Dropped a new @mistermetals Indian Swedish House single yesterday
I feel like a proper PM, aiming to highlight all of my awesome previous releases which didn’t do the numbers they could have and drive new business outcomes

Have a few songwriting credits under my belt, but this is my first ever public SC upload under my own producer alias. Jauz teamed up with SC for a remix contest, so I decided to support @fredwilson.eth, @aweissman, & the USV crew
Lots of new @mistermetals music dropping soon

…so I was hoping to speedrun it from idea to master on my flight from JFK to SFO, but I underestimated how bad plane wifi is
Got some good work done nonetheless

Posting some new sketches related to a concept album I’m working on called “The Instruments of India”
Releasing individual tracks, then dropping an EP, followed by more tracks, then the full concept album

Why are Farcaster builders so optimistic when X, Y, and Z bad things exist?
My brother, bad is the default.
It’s entropy.
Failure is the most likely outcome when building something new.
If you’re not a definite optimist, you’ve got no chance in making it happen.
Even if you’re a rational person, you have to be willing to suspend belief just enough to make the bet despite all the bad.
And then it’s just week of week progress and try not to die (mostly figuratively). For years.

Tomorrow I’m starting mix for my @mistermetals Drum & Bass remix of Prince Fox’s “Fragile”
Any /djs who spin 80-90/160-180 BPM like @j4ck.eth want final mix?
Here’s the arrangement 👇🏽 no vol/EQ/stereo image/delay/verb processing done yet

Biz is B2B2B/B2B2C, but they most definitely have the data, partnerships, and team capabilities to ship a pure consumer product

It’s been a little unnerving for me to see people drive on the left-hand side of the road 🙈
I’m wondering if I should issue a bounty to enumerate how many unique instruments and sounds there are in this chorus cross-section of this track

Helpful tool to recruit talent, as well as investors
If you have an even bigger malleable vision beyond that, even better! But that won’t be something to pitch until your thought process starts to cement

Holy earthquake
Farcaster success was obvious to me from the very beginning…
but it’s so cool to witness the Farcaster ecosystem go from 0 ➡️ 1 ➡️ n
…and knowing that this is still the very beginning of the story

Hoping that all /warpcast employees fully vest their options and actually buy in

Bless up to @linda and @bountycaster!
Was able to clean up my first @mistermetals track after running a bounty experiment, but I’m still only halfway done with the mix process
