weeknotes 23: birthday parade

we're in the southwest for Phil & Sharay's wedding, a three-day affair in a manor farm turned holiday cottage complex on the Tamar. we camped in the field which was surprisingly okay even with Adorable Three-Year-Old Nephew in the next tent over. pizza and poker on the first night (chips only;

debating between tweeting on mastodon ad infinitum about this versus busting it out sight unseen at #algorhythms or the meetup next week and hitting on the secret third thing of intentionally infuriatingly vagueposting

After some struggling with personal matters, the #petergabriel episode is complete! The side-episodes will be doled out this weekend, but the album ranking is here.

This was one of the strongest overall discographies we've covered so far. This episode also had Duke's two strongest moments as a host so far (although they are quite a ways into the episode).

Episode 10 (Part 1 of 3): Peter Gabriel studio albums ranked! (including I/O) [feat. ParanoidAndroid2001]

Listen to this episode from The Algorhythms on Spotify. We are back for 2024! And with the first of many new episodes to come in the new year.

And #Algorhythms Episode 1 is now uploaded. I did the audio editing myself. I am in talks with a potential video editor for future YouTube versions.

This was recorded on laptop mics and phones. It's nothing fancy, but it serves for us to establish a rapport with the co-hosts.

In this episode, the three of us will be ranking all 16 studio albums from Queen.

I don't care whether I blow up or not. I like doing this and that is it's own reward for the time being.

The Algorhythms

Listen to The Algorhythms on Spotify. We rank every album of a given artist's discography--one artist at a time.

#Algorhythms Episode 1 is recorded. There are some things I'm editing out. Mostly dead air moments and a few awkward jokes.

Also, there's the faint sounds of a doggo barking in the distance. Blame my dog not liking houseguests.

Pre-podcast recording look.

I think I'm starting to get the hang of makeup.

Also, cameo from my bass guitar.

Well, I'll be doing the recording for #Algorhythms podcast first episode this afternoon.

Will also be my IRL buddy's first time seeing me since my egg cracked. He's supportive, so I expect nothing to go wrong. May be a bit of culture shock for him, albeit a necessary one.

I'm confident that this recording will go well. I've been testing the mic settings feverishly and refreshing myself on the #Queen albums/songs I'm slightly fuzzy on. This will go damn well.

Since I picked Queen, I felt my co-hosts should each pick a band/artist to cover in the next episodes. I can say that Episode 2 is #VanHalen and Episode 3 is #Coldplay . Beyond that, I have a plan that involves wheels.
