Hey Gals and Pals,

I’m here! My lazy butt is writing another post for you after a couple weeks of silence. This week we are in full swing with a lot of multiplayer games. It seems a lot of you like to play with me while on stream, so I’m here to deliver!

We start off the week with the Sims 4. I know, I know, I just said multiplayer games, but a lot of you also enjoy this game, so it stays!

Tuesday will mark the release of Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2! I have been looking forward to this game for a very long time. The original Garden Warfare game was one of my early go to games when starting off on Twitch. I haven’t really watched a lot of gameplay or read much on it, so I’m hoping for lot of the same game mechanics and more variety in the characters.

Thursday will be our Creativerse stream. Off stream, I have been working with some other people on our server to gather a lot of the materials. One of those materials was stone, 7000 stone. On stream we will do more of the building and off stream it’s more of the farming. If you want to join us, feel free to join Tin’s Cannery!

Friday is Don’t Starve Together! I love love love this game and that is that.

Saturday marks the debut of Heroes of the Storm. This is a game I enjoy a lot off stream. I tend to have a handful of games that I usually don’t stream to keep me sane. I got into HotS a few months ago because it gave me a sense that I’m not years behind on champions like in League of Legends. Plus, it helps that I know a lot about Blizzard games so as new characters come out, I already have a sense of what they can do. I’m really excited for this.

Sunday is Animal Crossing: New Leaf, the golden standard game of the stream.

I look forward to this week and if you have any games you would like me to play on stream or with you. Please let me know!

Hello Everyone,

As you may or may not know, I will not be streaming for the next 6 days as I will be attending a World War 2 reunion. I will be providing updates and photos of the trip on my twitter and instagram. The usernames for both is tinner10tin. Follow both to see what I’m up to.

Also, don’t forget that our 24 hour stream supporting the charity, Extra Life will take place on the 24th at 9am! If you would like to learn more about the charity, you can check out tinner10tin.com/donate

I hope all y’all take care of yourselfs and that you won’t hate me too much. I love you all. :)

Let’s get formalities out of the way…

Hey Guys,

I’ve been working with my buddy, pal, friend, and boss: Harddrive, who is a DnB / Jungle DJ here in Austin, TX. He’s definitely way cooler than I could ever be:

Instead of me trying to write up something that would totally butcher up what he is, Here are some words directly from the man himself:

Over the last 7 years, I’ve been playing music in and around Austin, TX. From genre-specific club nights to special events looking for off-the-beaten-path musical styles, my focus continues to be on providing rarer grooves to the ears of discerning listeners. A huge part of my musical passion includes helping and supporting the local scene and consistently learning from all the amazing veteran DJs we have in our city today.

Recently, on the club side of things, I’ve been channelling the majority of my efforts into promoting and playing in several monthly residencies with a focus on DnB under the moniker “Harddrive”. Aside from the Sonar and Drum-Soul monthlies, I can be found spinning deep house at the end of each month on Abstrakt nights or the occasional vintage disco/soul/funk tune under my regular name at a one-off show or independent event.

With that introduction out of the way

I’m really really excited to share this news with y’all (you all).

Recently, he’s learned more about the things I’ve been doing on my channel at Twitch.tv and we talked about an idea on how we can blend the two genres, live gaming broadcasting and live DJ set mixing, together.

We are taking a game, Limbo, that has dark imagery and has a clean canvas when it comes to it’s soundtrack. This is being played by yours truly. Here’s an example of what Limbo is like:

On the soundtracking side, we are introducing musical themes such as dark and eerie dub techno, minimal dubstep, and deep DnB that will be mixed by Harddrive.

The project that we are debuting this Saturday is combining the visual elements of video gaming with the creative flows of DJ mixing to create an unique take of how we watch and listen. The goal of our project to try something new and see what it can evolve into.

In our worlds, we are surrounded with a whole lot of the same. We, collectively, want to stir things up and produce something that goes in a different creative direction and push the envelope of what is possible.

Come check it out, it will be on http://www.twitch.tv/tinner10tin at 8pm TEXAS time. I hope to see y’all there!
