Fortnite – Laufey The Final Hour

I'm not sure what makes for a "good choice" for a Fortnite music collaboration, but I can say Laufey feels like a very different choice for sure. Like Metallica, sure, Lady Gaga, ok, sure, she's got that crazy style and all going, Karol G, uh… sure, Gorillaz, absolutely, Sabrina Carpenter, she looks a little confused as to what she is doing but ok, and now, currently, we have Laufey. It's not any sort of knock on Laufey, I actually really like this and her bouncy jazzy music is pretty good, but it's also, kind of funny that she has skins…

Tomora – Come Closer

Welcome to my reviewish write up on the debute album Come Closer from Tomora. Tomora is a joint side project from Tom Rowlands of the Chemical Brothers and Aurora. The name is a portmanteau of their names, Tom-(Aur)ora, Tomora. It features a lot of vocals from Aurora, but its much much more heavy electronic music like you would hear from The Chemical Brothers. Come Closer feels like a random project that came out of nowhere, but I have some pet theories that its sort of been a thing for a while, or at least the concept of a thing. A…

Roblox – Aurora Runaway Forest

I've tried a few times to sort of, understand Roblox. It reminds me of Fortnite, which I like, and it's sort of a virtual world, which I enjoy, so it feels like I could at least be able to be into Roblox a little. I think a lot of my hangup with it has been that the avatar customization is so weird and clunky. The base body is this weird ugly blocky dude. You can get some custom bodies and parts, but there is no clear way to know what items are compatible. Plus, it all costs money to actually…

My Music Listening Habits for 2025

Its that time of year, when everything rolls over and everyone does wrap up and summary posts. I have done my music wrap up every year for a while now. I did it monthly for a bit but it didn't change enough to be interesting to write about. Hell, it honestly doesn't change much to be interesting annually. It was kind of a big year for buying CDs for me, though not necessarily listening to them. CDs are plentiful on the secondary market, and are easily digitized. I also went and ID tagged all my music, which will be useful…

Weekly Wrap Up (2025.12.20)

Kind of feels like an odd line up this week, and I am trying to "encourage" myself to post more individual posts on some things, like gaming. Gaming I actually have been playing the LEGO Fortnite a fair bit. Primarily with some sandboxy elements on, so I can quickly build little villages, but still fight things. I doubt this lasts very long sadly, the game play loop is just... not that deep. Especially with the material grinding removed. Anyway, I hope to post more detail on it later. Truck Sim has its Christmas event going on. The mechanics are very…
