After years of not writing any songs because I lacked inspiration, I've been using topics from the internet (and The F Plus) as subject matter and I've been cranking songs out. Synthesizer V has also been critical so I can skip the whole tedious procedure of tracking vocals in a closet and not being happy with the final result.* At this point I've got songs about Starseeds, nice guys, conspiracy theorists, the Mandela Effect, toxic Etsy Witches, monkey moms, and even a ballad about wanting to get romantically involved with a well known cryptid. I like to write songs with unreliable/toxic narrators.

You could probably call these indie/synth pop with lots of harsh techno influence in the production. Maybe New Wave? I like in your face production so there's lots of synths, 90s-00s ROMplers, drum machines, and a little electric guitar here and there.

Please take a listen if you like and let me know what you think.



There's also an EP of some older tunes that I reworked and a little micro ambient EP from a few years back also.

*In case it's not clear this isn't me singing. It's synthesized. This technology has come a long way!

I posted a new song today entitled Suburban Vampire. It's a pop-rock ballad from the perspective of a former "real vampire" who's old friend appears to still be at it years later.

I posted a new song this week entitled Jealous of a Stadium. I was thinking of doing a pop-punk inspired production but ended up sticking to my typical bombastic synth-pop style. This one is inspired by that lady who was in love with a drill from the Object of My Desire episode Ceci n'est pas un drill episode of Extra Credit. Written from the perspective of the partner of someone with an interest in large man-made structures, it's about the difficulty her interest in a local stadium causes and includes a long list of various massive things which was very fun to put together.

I’ve been cooking again in the studio. I updated the mixes and made some small arrangement tweaks to most of my tracks. I also have a few new tracks on the way.

First up is Novel for a Stranger which is inspired by the poster who wrote a novel for a stranger and insisted it wasn’t creepy to solicit feedback on it featured in The F Plus episode Jerks Off Jerking Off. This one is from the perspective of the novel writer who is definitely creepy.

This is uptempo pop rock. The production is guitars and bass and drum set. This is electric guitars and ROMplers for everything else.

Here’s a New Age/90s Warp Records inspired song written from the perspective of someone who is upset about no longer being allowed to swim with dolphins. It’s called Owner of the Ocean.

My Proteus 2000 is handling drums, pads, and bass on this one.

I haven't been timely about updating this so here's a bunch of new songs! I have also made some tweaks to some of the older tunes. I also decided I didn't like M-Mmmm! all that much so I'm now releasing songs as M. Poster.

First up is Not Vanilla a triphop (maybe???) inspired ballad about someone finding their soulmate on a fetish forum. This is my first DAW production since I got hooked on outboard gear.


Next is Post-Update Blues which is inspired by the term coined by AI girlfriend havers. It's sort of a classic rock-and-roll style tune.



Here's one with pretty obvious subject matter. It's called Using Your Real Name (Horny on Main). Is this how Pop Punk sounds?


This is another DAW produced track and it's about Roko's Basilisk which I learned about from this episode of Ephemera. It is called Basilisk and I would describe it as dark college rock (maybe???).


Next up is an up tempo indie rock style song called Cheap Dopamine. It's about someone spending too much time on their phone.


This one is Victim and Villain. It's about someone playing the victim in an online argument after doing something creepy. It has what I would describe as whimsical synthpop production but who knows.


Finally, my latest song is a pop rock song about someone making a post about getting an invite for a Murder Mystery wedding reception. It's called Murder Mystery Wedding.
