Magnetic Alphabet Soup

This was my attempt to make a gift for someone adorable using only stuff that I had lying around the house. Since I had exactly 98 spare wooden tiles, I came up with: alphabet fridge magnets. What I used: Magnetic sheets (in the form of…

I am an idea generation machine. Unfortunately, most of my ideas are bad, which means 90% of the things I do will never appear on this website. But sometimes I make stuff that even I am amazed at.

The music video for "Boring" (with @illeaaaph ) is out now! 🪩 Check out the full vid on YouTube

The song "Boring" is now (actually) available on Apple Music and other streaming services except Spotify! The B-side is a song called "Conveyor". Both songs are thematically linked, so I decided to release them together.

The original artwork is "Child with Doll" by Henri Rousseau, and I edited it to look vaguely like me (debatable). Hot tip for indie artists looking for artwork: you can find public domain stuff on rawpixel.com.

If you bought my album "Tirando Basura", you'd have heard these songs already - they are the album bookends (first and last track).

You can still buy the album on Bandcamp and MiniDisc at fanfickk.bandcamp.com. MiniDiscs are selling fast!

Thank you to everyone who has supported the album already 🥹💗

MiniDiscs are back in stock on Bandcamp! (fanfickk

Out on Friday: "Boring" music video (not actually boring) with @illeaaaph ! 💕

You can subscribe to my YouTube channel to get notified, but even if you don't, I will most certainly post about it again since it's the best music video ever made!!! (My input was minimal/musical 💀)

To get access to this song before it hits streaming platforms on the 19th, buy my album "Tirando Basura" on Bandcamp.

I released an album last Friday! It's called "Tirando Basura" (basically this emoji in Spanish: 🚮), and it contains 10 tracks. It's a real mixed bag, some dark, industrial sounding stuff, some very poppy tunes, a few weird ambient, Krautrocky instrumentals, and a cover of "Achterbahn" by @clueso that I sing in German! 🇩🇪

The full album is only on Bandcamp and MiniDisc 💽. MiniDiscs can currently be purchased from Bandcamp but they're about to be in record stores as well (watch this space). I pinned a highlight that shows the MiniDiscs so you can see what they look like.

Thanks to everyone that was involved in the making of this album, even if it was mostly to lend an ear while I complained about the pointlessness of making music and how "I give up after this" 🤡

I have a new single out today called "Jacket" 🧥. I'm not sure what to say about this song... I wrote it about my friend that isn't here anymore. I wear the clothes I inherited from her, and sometimes do a double take when I see myself in a shop window. It's been 8 years.

The music video is mostly cut together from public domain footage by the brilliant experimental film maker Len Lye. The intro section (shown here) is stock footage that I face swapped myself into.

I also have an album out today, exclusively on Bandcamp and MiniDisc 💽, but I'll write more about that some other time.

For now, you can listen to "Jacket" on streaming services (except Spotify lol), and watch the video on YouTube.

I'm tired of arguing with people one at a time so please enjoy my explainer of why Spotify is shit, terrible for artists, and terrible for the world in general. I know it's a very convenient app, but this is the cost.

Please see @weareumaw for more info about how crappy streaming is for artists. @bennjordan is a good resource as well.

For my mum's birthday this year, I covered her favourite song: "Moonlight Shadow" by Mike Oldfield 💝

It's not really a Fanfickk release since I had to make the genre something my mum would actually enjoy ☠️ so I have released it under the name "Lindenthal".

Special thanks to Taka for playing a lot of the instruments (drums, guitar, piano), and my sister @frauleinfink for generously singing a verse and some backing vocals for me 🪩. As well as producing this one, I also played bass for what feels like the first time in forever.

I'll put the link in my bio for anyone who wants to give the whole song a listen!

I was lucky enough to spend 10 days in Thailand with a bunch of lovely people, and these are my smug holiday snaps 📸

My music video for "You're Not The One" is almost a week old! 🐣

It was shot on an iPhone, and edited using @davinciresolvestudios (best free software ever). Shots of the presenter are actually video stills animated using "Deep Nostalgia" by @myheritage_official. I then slapped my singing mouth back onto it, and tried to move it around to match the head movements (to varying degrees of success, as you can see).

At the end, the whole thing was recorded onto VHS and then digitised again, which made it wonkier than it was already.

Big thank you to my friends @nightmarishmeatballs and Taka (who also mixed the track) for coming over and modelling whatever was lying around my apartment 🍌. And of course Kimchi, for being the most realistic cat that was able to attend at short notice.

You can watch the full video at the link in my bio 📺

My new song is out! It's called "You're Not The One", and it may or may not be about lobsters 🦞

I'll post more about it in the coming days, but for now, you can watch the video on YouTube (link in bio) and listen to the song on Bandcamp and the other streaming hellscapes.

Thanks to everyone involved, @nightmarishmeatballs for being my home shopping channel model in the video, Taka for excitedly wearing Barbie lipstick (also in the video) and mixing the track, and @wakermusic for mastering 💕✨

Just a couple of pics of my new and improved kitchen 😍 Plus a "before" photo so you can see how far it's come from the black and red 90s laminate monstrosity 🤢

I based the tile design on a hand-painted tile pattern I found on Pinterest, but my tiles are custom printed because it was cheaper haha. The benchtop is custom cut, hand-polished caeserstone in a matte, concrete look 💸💸💸

Still a WIP - I have more details I want to add, pendant lights, etc, but it looks so much more inviting already!
