Mastodawn

Hello everyone! Time for an #Introduction.

I'm Rochelle Potkar, a writer and poet from Mumbai, India.

I write literary fiction, poetry, haibun, and stories for the screen. My recent novels range from the satirical family comedy 'The D'Costa Family' to the social drama 'The Fabric Goddesses. I'm now back at my desk with bitter coffee and a new literary thriller.

I'm looking forward to meeting curious creative minds here.

a lot of people lament that modern music is quite focused on re-evaluating old sounds and subgenres and etc but I think it's pretty cool and interesting to be in a time where people can say "that sound that was around for a couple years 20-30 years ago was really good, why did we just drop that?"

Europa blijft de grootste klant van de florerende Israëlische wapenindustrie

Terwijl de kritiek op Israëls oorlogen aanzwelt, ook uit Europa, beleeft de Israëlische wapenindustrie haar vijfde recordjaar op rij. En datzelfde Europa blijft een van de belangrijkste afzetmarkten.

MIDNIGHT MONSTERS: A Startled Moontinkifer
Do not be afraid. Like many night creatures, they just wish to be left alone. These secretive beings often hide in the shadows, except when the moon is full and bright. The midnight moon is their time of wonder and if you happen to be in the right place at the right time, you just may witness some magical happenings. This particular midnight monster is called Moontinkifer and can be found high up in the Balkan mountain range on the border between Bulgaria and eastern Serbia . It was not easy getting to this destination, but I have found it worth the effort, expense and skinned knees. Legend says that if one is lucky enough to spot them during the day, they appear as drab, colorless creatures, almost invisible against the mountain landscape of rocks and boulders. They shine (literally) at night when they come out of their hiding places to dance. Moonlight causes a shimmering transformation from dull gray to a luminous rainbow colored glow! It is believed that the glimmer of incandescent color and magical movements is their way of attracting a mate. Otherwise, they appear to be quite shy, non-aggressive individuals, who unfortunately, startle easily.

When I work on music, chilling, reading, etc.. My cat (with no name.. just "cat") is never more far than 1 meter. But most often stuck all against me.

I lost the love of my life in october 2024 after 38 years old together. This little guy that I adopted (very sick at that time) a few months later is saving me.. Simply!

Added a new keys section to The Collapsing Pulsar synth, now on top of being an amazing sound generator using Conways Game Of Life, it can also be played like a regular midi keyboard or sequenced, adding a ton of functionality to what is already totally insane.

Very pleased with how this is going!

Comb filters are the mathematical foundation behind flangers, chorus and reverb. Understanding feedforward vs feedback architectures reveals why some effects sound smooth while others can spiral into chaos.
