So it’s been 2 months since I have sat down and made some music! Today I spent 3 hours creating an experimental song inspired by the band Puscifer. Take a listen to Tempted To Say
I am hoping to get something Christmassy out to you all before Christmas so you have some Hania tunes to listen to over the holiday break, but I’m not sure it’s going to happen as I’m struggling to find time to create anything these days!
I’ve cut my album down to a mini-album and should be releasing that when I’ve finalized the mastering.
The game Alice is Dead 3 is out so make sure you go play it! Very cool game and very cool people to have worked with. Themusic that I made for it is up on Newgrounds.com for all to hear if you’re keen.
The 24 animation in 24 hours challenge is done and it was AMAZING!!! The community that came to support us were awesome! We met a whole bunch of great people with fantastic ideas and they really helped with the process
So thanks to everyone that came to watch! You really did help!!!
We didn’t have space to mention what animations everyone inspired, so here’s the list:
Hobo with Balloons – Garenarussion
Bean boy terrorises city – FunnyHB
Banana Time Machine – oOTheForsakenOneOo
Pie in face & Explodes – KillswitchParadox
Revenge of the Taco – KillswitchParadox
Explosion Runner – (started off as shark with sunglasses – JonBro)
(then turned into the guy being an explosions with sunglasses – Crapatflash_CS)
(then turned into the guy running from an explosion – KillswitchParadox)
Computer Eats Cow – tontie777
Zombie Muffin – Danny
Space Ship – (Started off being Aliens – Trixen (Brendan Barry-Cotter))
(then the idea of spiders came about – SatanicGoomba)
Butterfly – Grimaldo
Head Shot – (Started off as tomato sauce – Eammy)
(Turned into hot sauce – Danny)
Voice acting for the Toast & Cloud animations – Trixen (Brendan Barry-Cotter)
Here’s some art that I really liked (and remembered to write the link down). I know there were others that drew while we were doing this, so if you have a link, let me know and I’ll post it up here too
What’s next? Well, I’ve got 3 projects that I have to finish without delay so I’m going to go off into my cave and do them. After that, 2 albums to finish and a Christmas Album as December is almost upon us!
Another thank you to all who came to support us! We’ll be doing this again for sure!
The music was so much fun to make too! While juggling reading the chat and helping James out with ideas and what-not, (getting food and coffee…) I managed to create 25 pieces of music, varying in mood for each animation James was creating. Only 24 were used, but I’ve collated them all (as well as the intro and credit music) and they’re available here to download
If you’re in the mood to donate to my music fund that helps me continue making music throughout my days, here’s the button of joy!
Save the Date! Saturday 11th September 2010. 8am Australian Eastern Standard Time. Check at the bottom of the post for times in other places.
We did a run of tests last night and figured out that it’s do-able. Just. heh. I think the hardest thing will be staying awake. I’m keen to see what strange and fucked up thing we churn out on that 24th hour…
But how to make it so everyone can see what we’re doing, during those 24 hours?
Answer: Stickam.com
Head to the below account to watch as we give you lots to look at – Our room as well as James and his Cintiq so you can see everything that he is drawing, as he’s drawing it!
We really want people to get involved in this too – so if you happen to be on stickam while we’re attempting this 24 hour marathon of animations, then yell out some ideas! We’d gladly incorporate whatever sounds good and will credit you at the end as a source of inspiration Try not to think of anything too vulgar or obscene though.
Here’s a pic I drew this morning for shits and giggles.
After we’ve completed the 24 hour session of madness, we’ll put all the animations together and be posting them online for all to see.
Just to confirm – James will be doing the visuals, I’ll be doing the music and we’ll both voice act if need be.
As I mentioned earlier, we did a test run last night – here’s a still of one of the animations we did:
See you when we see you!!

This is going to be a short post because I am so incredibly busy with a whole bunch of stuff so I’ll bullet point the updates
Within 2 days, I composed this new song called “Tormented Heart”. Go take a listen and let me know what you think.
I’ll touch base on the upcoming album titled “LITTLE” once again as the newest song ‘Tormented Heart’ has the same sound as the songs in the album.
Tarboy.com is getting a spring cleaning and from what my sources tell me, the store with the Tarboy Shirts is finally going to be up and running.
It’s all happening here in the Lee house!
I’ll leave you with a photo (blurry as it may be) of my new Adam A5X Speaker that is currently my musical savior. Yes, he’s sitting on a yellow pages book. I needed that extra height
Take a listen to my newest addition to the Newgrounds Audio Portal: Red Light City.
Yes, it was made in the spirit of Tarboy.
Yes, all you Tarboy fans should be excited and;
Yes, we now see the light at the end of the tunnel…
Another piece of good news is that I have been secretly working on an album called LITTLE. I am aiming for it to be released sooner rather than later! It consists of 7 songs, all relating to one another. I won’t spoil the plot of this story telling album, so you’ll just have to take a listen when it comes out
Try not to think of anything too vulgar or obscene though.
We’re in Australia – Brisbane.
