Personal Stuff/Some Video Update Delays

Without getting too detailed:
Last week I had a sudden/firearm-related death in my family, followed by a rapid decline of my grandfather's health.
My grandfather also has many ambitious music-related last wishes, which is both heart-warming and, erm, let's just say it's a weird errand list.

I've been actively juggling some of this stuff and working on channel-related stuff in the wee hours. I do enjoy the channel-related work, afterall! However there's an inevitable slowdown, and I've pushed the next bigger project to shoot in early September.

It also seems like I have *more* time for social media and less studio-intensive work, as I'll be spending a lot of time traveling around the state or in waiting rooms.

No condolences necessary. If you're reading this I will assume that you're already sending psychic wishes and/or prayers via framed print-out of this post by the time you get to this sentence.

Next video (hopefully by next week) is on physical modeling (the synth stuff, not me wearing tight clothing). The next stream is on the fence atm. You'll see an update on the Discord announcements if it's a go. Peace!

Sorry for your familial loss - I’m new to the Patreon channel - although far from new to your YouTube space. I lost my mother-in-law and aunt to cancer a couple years back and it was, needless to say, pretty brutal. As I’m sure most of us in the music space do, I found it quite cathartic to compose some music to help me manage with the spectrum of emotions that come with a close familial loss. Not trying to promote my own shit by any means here (it’s is a rough recording at best!) but I hope this helps anyone dealing with a loss to tackle the grieving process - even if what I’ve wrote has not bearing on your specific situation. At the very least I hope someone enjoys this Piano piece. https://www.dropbox.com/s/bf4jqu69iuusqko/Alix%27s.mp3?dl=0

all the best to you, your grandfather, & the rest of your familial crew....

He doesn't have it. You can support him directly through his website.

Yes, best wishes you and yours, Benn. Just watched your video with Jeremy and Cameron. Great topics. Do you know Cameron’s Patreon ID? I’d like to support him too, but am doing a poor job finding his profile. Thanks.

Best wishes Benn, your tribe are thinking about you ❤️

Fishnet crop top, or I'm cancelling my sub. ;P

Yes talking about physical modelling and wearing tight clothing are not mutually exclusive…

Nathan Shepperd

Hang in there, Benn. We're ready when(ever) your are.

GC

Sounds like a lot happening all at once my dude, hope you guys are good. Whenever the videos come they're right on time. ✌🏼

Carl G Wiley

All the best Benn, and hope the proverbial weather lightens up soon! I appreciate the update and I think it’s safe to say we’ll be here!

Tough situation! DO take care of the important things first, and we can wait no problem, however long you all need. Psychic wishes are in the outbox, should be received within a few minutes.

Marcus

Sorry Benn, but I don't care if they are necessary or not. I wish you the best of luck going through this. Take your time, and remember to keep your head above water.

Aksu

Tough stuff my friend! Good vibes to you and family . . .

John Teti Sr.

To keep it light: how about some physical modeling while doing some physical modelling? Also best wishes :)
