Its so stupid how a bloody 3 minute song can take 3+ hours to record.

Was alternating takes between the peaceful "shenmue themes" and "ff7 battle theme" over and over. Mistake, lack of expression, key pressed too hard or too soft... retake retake retake.

Until I got so damn dulan you'd think dulanness would help with an aggressive song like ff7 battle theme, but it doesn't. More mistakes instead. Ironically I need to calm myself down to portray the excitement of the song, or else my own excitement will prohibit me from feeling it.

And then when I finally get a PERFECT take of shenmue themes, I go check the camera and omfg it ran out of battery halfway. Bloody gay camera. I should grind it into fragments, feed it to a donkey and let it turn into donkey diahhrea.

So at long last after that I get a decent recording of the fight theme and then have to fight the quality/filesize codec wars for another few hours because I forgot my best settings from last time.

Then after uploading to youtube, the godamn godamn godamn sound and video doesn't sync.

So tweak, re-render and re-upload. And now youtube is taking its sweet ass own time to process it.

Internet is fun but sometimes it is the dumb.
