Very interesting mix of East and West.

So weird but so awesome. XD Somehow it doesn't really sound like J-Pop after all though, even if the instrumental's got all the energy it needs to have. Maybe you just need a more upbeat and poppy vocal tone for that? :P Or maybe it's just the Russian. I thought I heard a baka in there somewhere but overall the language changes the tone so much. Russian always comes across so much darker somehow.

Tone reminded me a little bit of this btw: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/700206

Actually not weird at all though! Just awesome. Getting addicted to those bite-size millisecond solos toward the end too...

Yupp, it's a whole new kind of combo. :)

Ah right, you were traveling back then! No more I guess? I spent most of July up North with the family, otherwise catching a couple paranoia-riddled colds and just... work. Bought a car so I can drive in instead of commuting, and work from home a couple days/week. Have one shorter ten day trip back up booked next week; hope to start catching up on collaborations after that. Feels like a creative outlet's all the more a necessity now.

How are you holding up?

Good to hear it's still possible to make do at a distance. :) Sometimes seems like the eceonmy might be collapsing for y'all over there, no jobs at all. How holed in are you though? Can't go outside at all now, or just not travel? I wish we'd imposed some way stricter restrictions right away... and then lifted them a couple weeks later when everything was OK again!

As it is it seems people don't respect the government enough to comply if they did do something like that, and there's just not enough money or patience in circulation anyway. Didn't really take things seriously enough when this started up. And the mainstream aren't really helping keep people cool and collected and working as a community.

Anyway the tutoring, is it Russian now? Even more languages?

I haven't really started with anything yet, I believe we were talking about something right before I left though. :) A bunch of unfinished stuff like that waiting to get picked up again. But I'm flying off next week again so: no time yet.

Mmm, it's no good cycle indeed. Every time something like this happens (IOW financial collapse/decline) I wonder if the corporate entities reaping profits off of this havoc might actually be the ones also somehow orchestrating it. Financial losses never really impact the ones who OWN the instances that cash in on everyone who can't pay their keep, a lot of both monetary and material resources/property changing pockets. Potential additional implications with the PLANdemic thing. ;)

Though they don't really know when this all started. When we were all aware something was going on maybe it would've been too late to keep it outside our countries after all with just closed borders. At that time I just wish we'd all have bunkered down on an international scale. There'd hopefully be no spread at all. People who became sick during those two weeks could be quarantined, then society could open up again and life continue as usual. Better close down absolutely everything for a tolerable amount of time than have this go on so long IMO. But of course it's easy to say that looking back. Would've seemed like excessively drastic countermeasures back then.

As for Middle East SARS and ebola they've never had the same spread though right? Seems the uwu is just way more contagious, and still not properly documented, people seem to be getting all kinds of health issues way after recovery. Death tolls are still on a similar level to just the normal flu every year, so you do wonder if it's all just hype, but what if we didn't even try to close things down a bit...? The Spanish Flu did kill fifty million people back in the day too, which was a huge percentage of the entire population back then. Still not sure what to think about all of this, I'm just a bit worried people like my parents may catch it, no matter how overhyped it is age still seems like a major risk.

Ah nice. Do you freelance, or work with schools or similar? Official tutoring position somewhere?

Aaah I'm not sure about that though, I think you might be waiting on me. Though good to hear you might not actually be actively waiting then. XD I do write all the time, just no recording stuff. Yet.
