Show Notes

Originally aired on August 5, 2019.

This week, we’re discussing Empty Hands behind the scenes, specifically the influence of Dungeons and Dragons and the character creation process.  Just like the D and D alignments, the eight Rangers in Empty Hands have their own specific alignment that informs which sidearm they are assigned.  (If the idea of D and D morality alignments are as mysterious to you as they were to me before my brother explained them to me, check out the graphic I found on the internet below). 

The rest of the episode focuses on two new synth tracks.  I add a second track to finish up "A Place of our Own" (see episodes 202 - 204 and the pixelart animation below).

I also start a new track that IG musician @nikeboyocta approached me about inspired by Van Halen's "Dreams" (video above).  Look for more on IG and in coming weeks!
