Panchito‘s Diary

Update: I fucked up the mastering, so will take more time until its polished :c moral of the story, dont rush when ur computer can’t keep up

this is my second album, third record “Club Bathroom Breakup” Inspired by the tail end of a breakup walkthrough, focused on grief more than wrath as the album “plushies” was. Inspired by raw grunge emotions and naive first times. The upload on streaming platforms will be ready in a couple of days I hope, until then, here are all the tracks, you might even download them if u want.

Production began directly after “Plushies” from february until today. The experience was familiar but also new and exciting, kinda obsessive too. I began to use more “analogue” format tools, for a more “hands on” approach. Also my instruments changed, maybe this is a good time to write about my releases and its sound tools.

1) The New Grime, published as “Judas Flowerboy”:
-Logic Pro on an iMac 27″ i5 2020

-Telecaster Guitar TE-52 by Harley Benton (natural finish, I was a sucker for pure wood back then!)

-Bass Guitar EB-0 by Epiphone (never liked the red, too cliché, the colours of Gibson are not my cup of Boomer Tea)

-All plugins and fx are logic stock

-Audio interface M-Track Duo by M-Audio (was nice and cheap, like me)

-Condenser Microphone Marantz MPM-100 (built like a rock)
