2025-10-13T02:30:35.755Z i decided that the alluthus.com site should focus on the alluthus project solely instead of both it and my personal stuff under my real name i think the best part of this is that the website has an actual font that loads on all devices lmfao 2025-10-17T01:22:16.333Z wow, its all coming together slowly 2025-10-22T00:31:45.187Z new mixes of "Urban Groove" are out! you are prob asking "why a new mix if there is a 2023 version?" well, that mix is actually ass lmfao, def clips more than the original. generally with new mixes, we've been making new releases (2023, 2024, 2025, etc. mix for example), but on this new mix, the the audio files on the existing "Urban Groove" release were replaced instead. the new mix of "Urban Groove" is also present on the LIFE soundtrack and Greatest "Hits" - Vol. 1. You can stream the single version of "Urban Groove" here: https://found.ee/urban-groove The demo versions on the single release also received updated mixes as well 2025-10-24T05:46:24.351Z a lot of picture hunting to make this discography list lol 2025-10-26T02:41:14.152Z test out the new alluthus webpage at https://dev.alluthus.com/ 2025-10-28T00:43:39.904Z thank you for the feedback on the new alluthus website. it'll probably launch sometime at the end of this year or early next year. It still needs a lot of polishing and improvements, but I figured sharing this 'dev' version would allow me to get some insight on how the site displays on different web browsers and mobile devices 2025-10-28T00:45:01.078Z The discography section could definitely use some lower-res photos since loading 1000x1000px png photos takes forever lol. my thought was to make some sort of script for older discography to load as in as you scroll down, but honestly i lack the understanding and knowledge to do such a thing especially since this page will get real long in the future if there are more releases 2025-10-28T00:47:58.460Z Sophie and Eiim both provided some input on the main homepage images since it does not transition smoothly on certain browsers (it was a lazy effort with keyframe cross-fading) and the images do be kinda large lol 2025-10-28T00:49:18.400Z But do feel free to let me know of any other improvements you think it may need or modifications. i have not made a website out of scratch like this in such a long time, so i am re-learning a lot of things but also learning other things i had no idea could be done, like with that video clip on the homepage...i thought making that was pretty cool 2025-10-28T00:51:56.179Z The discography page in general could use a fixin, given that the images are flex-wrapped and you get awkward white space with less than 3 images per row 2025-10-28T00:53:26.461Z so yea, def a lot more to learn here lol this has been something i've been wanting to do for so long and finally got the motivation to do 2025-11-03T04:43:23.289Z 500+ monthly listeners on Pandora since the release of the single "DANCE DAMN IT / ANOTHER DAY". I think that is the most I've ever had...thank you to all the listeners tuning in on the track, even if by accident lol. 2025-11-03T04:50:35.173Z STiBaRC Records will be loaded after this (~$1 most likely) I think last year i averaged about 700 streams on Spotify alone (though save for a Christmas EP, there was no new content released) so yippie 2025-11-08T05:09:49.267Z i would like to personally thank eiim and chainswordcs for pointing out the abnormally large svgs for the STiBaRC Branding assets repo. lol it is so embarrassing, it got a good laugh out of me 2025-11-08T05:10:57.745Z i am lazy, so when i make new svgs on inkscape, i just open whatever i made last and make a new copy of the svg...but it saves all the metadata from the previous versions of the svg like images used for pattern fills for example! those svg files specifically had images that were 5-8 years old lmfao 2025-11-08T05:12:40.344Z i know its not much of an issue to have those there, save for the large ass file sizes, but i went ahead and corrected that. i never realized how large those svg files were because well...i just save them to onedrive rather than directly on my PC 2025-12-02T00:51:35.964Z hello thinkblog, happy december! 2025-12-02T00:54:41.954Z today i got emails setup for my web domain, yay. idk why it took me forever to figure that out...while its not as fancy as josh's own little personal email server or whatever via snappymail, its something at least. i've had an icloud subscription for years for the cloud storage, and recently discovered there are custom domain email settings quite the easy setup too especially for someone like me with the lack of skills on managing a web domain.. kid you not, when alluthus.com launched, i had josh set it all up on google domains bc i did not know how to 2025-12-02T00:58:46.634Z but there's been some growth for me at least... alluthus.com and josephmadril.com are under cloudflare now. learned my lesson switching the alluthus.com domain from squarespace (since google domains went away) to wordpress...big mistake there lol a lot cheaper too ! 2025-12-03T01:08:54.811Z
Somehow, Memory Lane entered an Apple Music chart! idk what that means, or what chart it even is for that matter but thank you nonetheless! 2025-12-03T01:33:19.431Z 2025-12-03T01:34:24.432Z "Golden Days" was the most streamed song in my discography this year on Apple Music. 443 minutes is quite the jump from last year (255). 2025-12-03T01:38:05.577Z and it seems the chart entry was top 25: London! 2025-12-03T01:40:39.646Z (i wonder if it was a bug or mistake) 2025-12-03T18:34:43.964Z Spotify wrapped is here!! Thanks for tuning in on Spotify 2025-12-05T14:26:57.476Z I keep breaking this game lol 2025-12-07T04:47:01.531Z
