152 why i deleted all my music

from 2023 by prairie goth

about

this is a spiritual war and i’m gonna win.

i am now officially only releasing music on overdubbed cassette. you can get it by a) mailing me cash or by b) finding me. all my old albums are gone from the internet.

many people have been asking about what “promotion” i did when i released the ghosts beneath our feet last year. so i thought i’d get some of those thoughts down while they’re still kinda in my head. making music is hard, publishing it is tedious, and promoting it is soul-crushing. hopefully some of these thoughts can help get you through the process with your own projects. otherwise, welcome to a mortifying peak into my melted mind. my sincere apologies for being annoying, mean, stupid, boring, embarrassing, cringe, depressive, unbearable, useless, etc. etc.

want help with writing promotional materials and stuff? hire me at noranygard.com ;

i’m a 39-year-old content moderator for one of the big five open source ai companies can’t tell you which one but basically my job is to analyze content and its associated metadata, and to work closely with the natsec and intel communities to identify anomalies and neutralize them.

how to be at peace. you gotta focus on the good stuff. you’re making music to make the people in your life happy. you’re making music to communicate how you feel to the people around you. you’re writing so you can learn about yourself and feel closer to yourself. you’re writing to remember, to sort out your life and how you feel and to internalize the memory of those feelings in a way that you can access in the future. you’re making records to have a document of this time. your voice, body, and brain will change and now is the only time you’ll be able to do this. you’re making a record so the people who care about you can feel close to you when you’re not around. you’re making a record so someone in a different time or place will find it meaningful and feel less alone. some of these things might not happen for thirty years, but you can only make the record now.

god bless each and every one of you:

prairie goth Saint Paul, Minnesota

like alucard, "i'm interested in this," i say as i open a new tab, injecting the poison straight into my veins. what a terrible life to have a curse

the fire illuminates my face. i'm too high for the beach. "the horror of it all," i beg him, "i can't stand it." he looks at me confused and asks what. what horror.

i walk to the edge of the cliff and scream until i wake up in the back of a car ... more
