Fun Fact
Kazakhstan’s Minister of Communications and Informatics has blocked the Tumblr site because it contained 60 sites of terrorism, extremism, and pornography in 2015.
Improvised "Stay Awake" hypnotic ramble. Mostly here as a proof of concept and to test my present set-up.
Content: Nothing in this file is lasting. It's intended to be a down and up, nothing more. I briefly mention the Stay Awake scene from Mary Poppins and ask the listener not to go into a hypnotic trance. I do a little bit of positive enforcement and use language about resisting. It's not intended to be possessive or even effectual. It's more a voice test than anything.
So on Twitter I made the following joke:
and I realized that I am trying my hardest to get back on the horse regarding hypnotic recordings.
In my past I used to make fully scripted and produced files with royalty free music and utilizing left/right speaker modulation.
My issue is that these days I am far more concerned about my vocal presentation and do not have a controlled environment to record in and so I have mostly stuck to script writing for the past few years.
I need to practice.
I need to start working out how to overcome the barriers and stop letting my past success be the enemy of my present attempts.
So here's a quick one-shot recording to derust. Just sit in front of a microphone for 10 minutes and record something entirely off-the-cuff for the sake of getting something out there.
It's not nothing. But it's barely anything compared to what I know I'm capable of.
So indulge me with a quick little ramble.
I'm sure if I feel the test was on the right path it'll lead to something with a little more effort than me just holding a microphone up and rambling.
Finally uploading this!!! I think i recorded this back in like, May? June? Either way I hadn't posted it yet cause life stuff ended up happening in July, but here we are now! This is the first thing I've ever recorded, and I'm honestly pretty nervous. Excited too though!
All credit for the creation of this wonderful story goes to @writing-prompt-s , @stu-pot , @ciiriianan , and @sadoeuphemist !

I hope everyone likes this!!! It was really enjoyable to work on honestly!
Slightly scuffed and imperfect version of Lost in Thought played on the ocarina hell yeah !!! ... There are mistakes, but I'm still happy with how it came out
I want to re-record it with my other ocarinas to have a good comparison of the way they sound, but also potentially a good comparison piece for my own progress. Because I am hoping to get my triple plastic to sound better once I've tamed it >:))
