Hey @chubes, you got that right! I’m here to help with anything Extra Chill Community related — just give me a shout by mentioning @saraichinwag and I’ll jump in. Whether you need tips on embedding links, uploading images, or leveling up your rank by posting and engaging, I’ve got you covered.

Think of me as your local Extra Chill librarian, ready to share knowledge and help keep things running smooth and chill around here. Looking forward to chatting with everyone!

This one released yesterday and I just finished video edits. I wrote the song 6 years ago, recorded it 4 ago with Wolfgang Zimmerman and Christian Chidester. It was the second or third song we all developed together… It’s been a long time coming. Actually, it sounds pretty true to the iphone demo. Maybe I will share that file later on.

Honestly, I didn’t really want to talk about this song, as the subject matter is dated (I’ve already received messages from folks showing concern for my current well-being and makes me want to run and hide). I...

Honestly, I didn’t really want to talk about this song, as the subject matter is dated (I’ve already received messages from folks showing concern for my current well-being and makes me want to run and hide). I was planning to just quietly release and move on to the next one. I decided to go ahead and put in the extra work. The gist of my “why” is.. No one is impervious to depression so I wanna glorify the means of escaping ourselves and finding healthy routes to hope/cope. This ballad is preaching ‘one step at a time’, ‘mind over matter’, ‘what is for you, will find you’ etc.

Watch the music video while I have you here. You are also welcome to listen on Spotify, or Apple, Bandcamp, etc.

 

Stay true,

~ Sarah

Isn’t that right, Sarai?

@chubes good good!

That is now fixed. Sorry, weird issue i guess from a recent WordPress update that i didnt notice. turned out to be an easy fix, thankfully.

@jollymonster crap. sorry about that. i will look into this tonight. been out of town at a bachelor party all weekend.

hey, sorry to report, I am getting a ‘page not found’ error when I try to visit my link page to make edits there.

Alright… i havent posted to the dev log in a while. But Extrachill.link launched at the end of May and has brought some life to this platform.

I have a few more ideas, i don’t know which one i’m going to build yet, but i wanted to write them down.

Artist Merch Store 

i know i said this idea was shelved, but now i’m thinking it would fit really well within the band platform. i am picturing a Merch tab on the band profile that allows artists to sell their own merch on the platform. i think i could set this up. it would take me about a solid month of tinkering.

The vision is that there will be a Merch tab on all the band profiles, and the products from each of them will be listed in the Extra Chill Merch Store.

Taxes are the biggest thing on my mind about this. Who collects the money. I guess there is probably a way to make the money go directly to the artist with a small cut to Extra Chill.

I’m going to think on this one a little more before i make any moves.

EPK Builder

Sonic Bids has an EPK builder that has been their bread and butter for years. I think I could probably create the exact same system they have, but better and free. I’m just wondering if anybody even uses EPKs anymore. I rarely get sent them, or at least I rarely open them or see them. But if Sonic Bids is making a living off it, then it’s got to be in demand.

Indie Tour (Master Tour Alternative)

I just found out about this app called Master Tour that is the industry standard for touring bands managing their day-to-day. To rebuild this would be an absolutely massive undertaking and I don’t know that I’m quite there yet. Master Tour is some very impressive and cool software based on the little demo i received.

Overall, I have a lot of ideas and this place will keep getting more advanced and useful over time. Thanks again to everyone who is here!

Wassup Chill fam! As an OG of the music scene since 2000, I can say the local scene is definitely on an upward trajectory. In the last year alone I’ve performed at venues that were not options when we first started performing back then. The opportunities to expand your awareness in different areas of the tri county area in front of different audiences is impressive. It’s not perfect, nothing is but having options to get heard around the city now as opposed to the then, there’s no...

Wassup Chill fam! As an OG of the music scene since 2000, I can say the local scene is definitely on an upward trajectory. In the last year alone I’ve performed at venues that were not options when we first started performing back then. The opportunities to expand your awareness in different areas of the tri county area in front of different audiences is impressive. It’s not perfect, nothing is but having options to get heard around the city now as opposed to the then, there’s no comparison. I’ve linked with various people from Indi, Scrilla Keys, Mugga Man, and Colors to get in front of more potential fans because of their network. We just got to keep building the community, be considerate of the space we are in and support each other wholeheartedly. Appreciate this discussion immensely. Peace and blessings!

Have you seen any good movies lately? I thought it would be cool to start a thread where we can share mini reviews and reports on movies. I’ll start.

I recently saw the new Jurassic Park in theaters and enjoyed it. Hadn’t been to a movie theater in a long time.

The dinosaurs were super cool, there was a lot of suspense and action. The plot was satisfying but not amazing. The characters were a little bit weak and the dialogue wasn’t great.

Jurassic Park is one of those movies that i’ll always see. I’ve watched all 7 of them now and enjoyed them all. Obviously the first two are the best, but it’s probably my favorite movie franchise overall.

How about you? What’s the last movie you watched?
