Making my computer sing and I play guitar to it. I make music with voice synths in different styles. I write the songs, play, produce and mix them.
I use Synthesizer V Studio Pro to create my vocals. My favorite voice bank to use is Solaria.
I primarily write on guitar and most of my tracks feature (electric and/or acoustic) guitar as a result.
I try to write the music to fit the intent of the song. If the music doesn't support the song first and foremost, it's a no-go for me.
I enjoy using interesting harmony.
Arrangement is really important for me. The music should tell a story all by itself, one that ties into the story of the song as a whole.
I'm strongly influenced by producers like ryo, Yuyoyuppe and Samfree. I love idol music, like from Hololive.
