#music to concentrate

[mascotdang]

Me studying for exam but EPICs keep playing in my mind so I post this just to calm down my nerve:)

I love the idea that the Gods are closed siblings, some being biased and willing to fight just for nothing

#i feel like im in the minority here but i find videos or music a bit stressful when i concentrate on art

[romans-art]

for those of you who like process pics, here's a few steps in the process for this piece

#roman does art #rebecca das musical #art process #honestly I was a bit lazy with this one and only did fine linework for the faces #because imo the faces are the most important part #Danny's hand in particular is like 'meh' but it's not what you concentrate on when you look at this piece so whatever #if I were to do a print of this one I would for sure want to refine details #but I don't plan to so

PROGRESS!!!!!!

#out of queue #ani rambles #so the problem i had earlier was ‘i made 2 chains when i wasnt supposed to and everything was whack’ #but i fixed it so now its Less Whack. #this is gonna be the hood i have like 12 more rows to stitch which might be a full ball of my yarn #also im understanding how motherfuckers listen to podcasts #i listened to like 4 video essays dissecting hozier lyrics and comparing them to dantes inferno #like my other hobbies (drawing and writing) require imagination and concentration and Specific Vibes #crochet requires a different kind of concentration #but so far its good for listening to new music and videoessays so maybe i’ll try a podcast tomorrow. or friday #tomorrow meaning later today because ITS FIVE AM #AAAAAAAAA

well I've finished it.

and it's... it's not zendaya... but at least you can recognize zac efron!... right?

and just to clarify, I personally prefer to draw traditionally (and I am too broke to change that at the moment) and my phone camera is shite. so. enjoy!

#honestly i tried so hard to make her look like zendaya but i eventually gave up #i tried to concentrate on getting her nose right because the rest of her face is pretty much covered up by her hair anyway #that didnt really work out either #its also my first time drawing curly hair! #theres definitely a lot of room for improvement #the greatest showman #fan art #zendaya #zac efron #rewrite the stars #musicals #art #my art

[hackfurs]

do any of you guys have any favorite artists whose music is primarily in japanese. preferably in the pop, punk, rock, alternative (and adjacent) genres

#i dont know if anyone else is like this but i literally cannot concentrate on writing or drawing if i listen to songs in english #i guess this is also an ask for non english music in any language not just japanese #i just like how japanese sounds and i have the most exposure to it

The Crookes - Dance in Colour

“You make it sound so simple.” “It is simple.” “Not for me. Some dream of quiet love... I favour chaos. I want it to hurt. I need to feel it in every single breath.”

#I have so souls left to give ferdie....... #i really like the song actually but as if I was concentrating on that the first time #I was like this might make for some cute gifs and they drop THIS?????? #FUCK THAT FUCK ME #my gif #my gifs #* #i am regular #ferdinand kingsley #gina walters #the crookes #dance in colour #music video #music video gif

Also what is it with me leaving songs in another tab or the watchlist and never getting around to it anytime soon

But most often than not those songs are such bangers too

#this is about the other songs in the chameleon album and the good witch and evermore and- #I'll be like ooh this song looks like smth I'll be interested in and then *adds to watchlist *adds to liked song (which i just use as tbw) #or *open link in new tab but I won't click on the tab for dayssss #listening to new songs takes concentration and motivation and is such a big task in my mind #which frustrates me to no end argh #eph #music #rant #but mostly in the tags? but eh block the rant tags if you wanna avoid

So... we know Dimitri is a big part of the story. So much so that the devs will share little to no information about him (obviously not to spoil anything). We will see him in flashbacks and supposedly parts of the main game- maybe even the sequel. He is also confirmed to be an antagonist in the game. Thus- there are two possible roles (that could coexist) that this pyromaniac chimera may play.

He could be a. A recurring antagonist in every chapter either in flashback and/or the main plotline, or/and b. the final antagonist that connects the whole story together for it's grand conclusion. While every major antagonist has a rather stand-alone chapter that contribute to the overall story of Billie, we do not have enough to go on Dimitri to know whether or not he will be the one to wrap up Billie's storyline- but let's argue this further with what we do know:

Both Billie and Dimitri want to be heroes. Both almost chase acceptance by trying to be a hero. And they've ended up hurting people in the process.

Billie as we know is a bit of an outcast in her village because she has uncontrollable powers, a love/need for adventure, and because she doesn't exactly adhere to the rules and roles of the village. Reading about her dad and Aristotle inspires her to want to be a hero, but her journey will supposedly lead her to some hard truths about heroism. They've accidently hurt people and unintentionally caused issues that have hurt others and may continue to do so to fight what she believes or is told are forces of bad. Many who probably have had tragic circumstances that lead them to where they are.

Dimitri, from what little we know of him, intentionally causes harm to people so he can be the hero. This behavior grants him the positive attention a hero would get that having someone else be the hero makes it almost competitive (if I am not over reading his introduction too much).

Already we can see how Billie and Dimitri's ideologies are somewhat overlapping, yet very much clash with one another. Billie wants to follow in her dad's footsteps and learn how to be more of the person she wants to be while Dimitri is quite literally living a lie. If he is meant to be a final antithesis to Billie- we could assume that perhaps he was outcasted or berated much like Billie for not fitting in.

That would not be too far off given that he is one of the few chimera characters we have seen along with the tail that speaks his unfiltered thoughts (which he can't control!), but we've also seen many hints at chimera-like god creatures in Billie Bust Up such as one Elaine sort of prays to:

Which means Dimitri could a. be some sort of magical creature or demigod or higher and/or b. have the expectation to be some kind of heroic god or god-like creature because he looks like one. Or/and perhaps c. being a chimera and seeing how many other chimeras are praised, the power/idea of that got to his head and he now has to constantly keep up that reputation for his own ego.

No matter how you view it- whether Dimitri pretends a hero because he's afraid of being outcasted and alone, trying to live up to the expectations of people like him that are literally seen as gods, or is just fueled by his own ego- or all of the above and maybe plus some- you could relate that to or contrast it to Billie.

Billie is an outcast to her people, she has a great amount of power she has no control over, and wants to- almost feels the need to walk in her father's footsteps to get a proper grasp on her powers or prove that she's able to be one. Billie wants to have control over her life and herself, to prove her self-worth. Katie often compares her to Hercules from Disney's Hercules who doesn't want to be a burden with his strength.

We may see Dimitri's story interwoven with Billie's not just in flashbacks, but perhaps other characters as well. It's a little unclear if Dimitri and Billie will meet face to face- it's likely they will since he's integral to the plot and the possible antithesis to Billie. But we may see more of or learn more about Dimitri through other characters as well. There is still some speculation (on my end mostly) on there being a possible link between Fantoccio and Dimitri given that they are vaguely similar in color pallets and personality. And given that Fantoccio is the main antagonist before the fifth and final chapter, if Dimitri turns out to be the final boss- that may cause the need for some needed tension or controversy over how Billie takes on her possible antithesis (however that does play out-if it plays out).

Dimitri could perhaps be connected to other characters as well- perhaps being the reason why some characters have gems (except for maybe Barnaby- but that doesn't mean Barnaby hadn't tried to kill him or something at one point).

It's still very hard to tell what exactly Dimitri's role is in the main storyline of the game and only vaguely understood in flashbacks with Aristotle and Arthur. When the game comes out, it may be revealed that none of what I just speculated was true and Dimitri's just a victim of the zombie infestation or partying in Barnaby's mansion. Or perhaps was imprisoned at Claw Bay at some point or Dutch somehow managed to wrangle him to be at the hotel. Or maybe none or all of the above- who can tell?

All we truly know is Dimitri does have a big role to play. And we'll just have to wait until the game to truly find out.

There is a faraway forgotten land in another dimension. In that land, there is an abandoned city. And in that city, there is a lone radio. When that radio is not playing the newest hit by superstar artist Neichel, it’s playing the tastiest, funkiest jams the people of that world had to offer.

(AKA the chaotic Spotify playlist with several of my favorite classic jams that I like to listen to when working on stuff like the Roleswap comic >:D)

#Just in case anyone out there happens to be curious about the music that fuels my personal creative process #I do constantly update this so it's always active haha #but here it is! a little piece of myself #nobody needs to force themselves to like this kind of music btw #this is simply an invitation into the inner workings of my mind haha #drums bass and synth all grant me enormous power #its funny because my dad got me into most of these songs #he hosted a radio show in his youth so he's big into music #so if disco is blasting from the other side of the house I know he's concentrating on something :P #I suppose I inherited that!! hahaha #anyway thank you for reading these tags #love ya #jojo rambles #link #roleswap scraps #Spotify #also there are a few random newer songs that just fit the vibe of the roleswap! #so enjoy those too!! hehehe

Gosh I really really hecking love the music from all the middle earth things. Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Rings of Power, the music is all just *chef's kiss* phenomenal. It's what I listen to when I need to focus on a project, or even when I need to feel calm.

I hate feeling peaceful and serene a good majority of the time, because for one, I don't have the time to focus and reflect, and for two, if I focus and reflect on myself I usually focus too much and over-analyze myself and end up hating myself quite a bit. It's not what I enjoy doing. At all.

But the music for Tolkien's works, idk what it is about it, but the composers perfectly captured the balance between the serenity and beauty of Middle Earth while also the valiant soldiers fighting for the good of the world, fighting against evil, and I can really get behind that. It makes me believe in myself, and know that if even the smallest, most insignificant (to the other races, at least) creatures matter and can have an impact on the world, then I can too. That I can live up to my greatest potential too and even if I'm merely the supporting role of tree #5 in someone else's story, then I can at least be the tree that helps crush the evil oppressing them as their enemies run from Helm's Deep.

It's so hard to put into words just how much I appreciate Tolkien and his works, as well as all the producers who brought those works to life and have become a major part of my life. All of those people who remind us that it is important to take the time to pause and just appreciate the small joys in the world around us. Especially in the chaos that surrounds us.

It's hard to explain, but I still try because it's been healing for me, and I want everyone else to be healed by it too, you know?

#middle earth #tolkien #rings of power #the hobbit #lord of the rings #i love middle earth #it heals me #i want you to be healed too #i am tree number 5 #but i will crush your enemies #i can be powerful in my own world #concentration music calms me #but only middle earth music

Give me strength… I can’t right now with the human race, y’all. I just watched a dude on Youtube react to Benny Goodman. Big band music from the 40s. The reactor is a man of color, maybe in his 30s. He is also British. And he is very impressed with “Sing Sing Sing (with a Swing)” as well he should be.

And he says, “The 40s must have been a great time to be alive…”

…

I figured they’d set him straight in the comments. Nah. Top one was the obligatory, “My dad raised me on Benny Goodman!” with a responder also wishing they could go back to the 1940s. The guy in the video goes on to say he wishes he had a time machine to go back…

I wearily leave a reply that includes the sentence, “THE FIRST HALF WAS A WORLD WAR!!!”

I fear for all humanity.

#dude just #dude… #what even #we have all the music still #let’s enjoy it #and concentrate on not #having a repeat of the rest
