The state of the fluffy (late December 2025 edition)

Time for another proverbial cheese sandwich post​. Thinking about the end of the year and what’s coming up for me.

Bandcrash: Not just for self-publishing

If you’ve poked around this website you probably know that I wrote and use Bandcrash to build the embedded players for the music previews. You might also be aware of it as the tool that I use to publish my albums to my itch.io page as an alternative to Bandcamp. But I also use it as a tool for a bunch of other things in my music — including part of how I publish things to Bandcamp and other storefronts.

More IndieRadio(?) progress

You can always tell when I’ve been deep into a project when my feed reader stats go off-kilter:

Albums almost ready for release

Transitions is (finally) almost done. There’s just a couple of little tweaks left to do (like, super duper minor things, decibel-level adjustments and slight timing tweaks and a little bit of vocal tuning). It’ll be really nice to finally have this album done after all this time. The oldest song on this was first recorded in 2001! And my first attempt at making an album of this stuff was back in 2003! This album is legally old enough to drink in the United States.

Bandcrash v0.8.0 released - Bandcrash by fluffy

Bandcrash has been updated! And it has a shiny new version number, just because there were enough internal changes that anyone using the library might be thrown off by some of them. Here’s what’s...

Bandcrash updated

Well, this is silly: I just discovered that Bandcrash doesn’t properly escape HTML entities in the web preview player. Or rather, it didn’t. It does now, as of v0.7.9.

Taking a break from stuff

So yeah I’m deep in a pain flareup right now. I made sure that all of the critical bugs in bandcrash are, to my knowledge, fixed, but I just am not in a situation where I can really work on stuff right now due to a massive pain flareup.
