FELIZ FIN DE SEMANA AMIGOS Y AMIGAS!!!
Extra large muy turbo grande shouts out to everyone that came to see us play at the first ever METAVERSE FESTIVAL, a very epic time was had and it was mazing to see you all in your Metaversal forms, just like Terence McKenna and Jaron Lanier foresaw back in the 90s.
If you missed the experience, there's some clips of it floating around, and you can watch the live set we created for the festival outside of its Metaversal context here.
Speaking of Metaversal Glory, shouts out to everyone that secured slices of Meaningwave NFT history this week... Two JBPWAVE classics were minted, and sold for 0.3 eth each for which we salute you and give thanks, pivar!
This week's major release across DSPs (digital streaming platforms) is a particularly hefty one. The 50 (FIFTY) track beat tape, LOFI BEATS ALPHA just dropped!
Featuring 50 (FIFTY) instrumentals produced by Akira The Don between May 2020 and September 2021, recorded in Los Angeles, Texas, Cancun, and Playa Del Carmen. Some you've never heard before and many should be familiar.
It is the third in Akira The Don's LOFI BEATS series of self explanatory instrumental collections. Some of the tracks have been edited and rearranged from their original incarnations to better suit the beat tape format, and being enjoyed as individual instrumentals.
ENJOY!
We had the tremendous honour of being featured in Podcast Notes this week, where this week's appearance on the Danny Miranda podcast got a write up. Shouts out to Danny, who asked me a bunch of questions people don't usually ask, and Podcast Notes, who are one of my favorite sites for obvious Meaningwave-adjacent reasons.
Saw a @heydannymiranda tweet about how you should share the process more so here’s some process
