I like to imagine that you go to the top of sacred and devine mountain and with all the forces of nature gathering around you through strong winds and powerful lightning strikes and shaking ground you create this incredible music
I can't describe how much i love your Music. But what i can is, to thank you to bring us those awesome Tunes. Still remember when i listen the first time to your Music, which was i guess when Stratos and The Bomb came out. Love those tunes a lot. Also i have to thank you, that i can feel Safe when i listen to your Tracks, that i can let out my Emotions and the best part: I can relax, until the point of being in Piece with myself. Thank you! ♥

These videos generate less than $1 a month, and most users will play them in a background browser window while they do something else. So no, I won't spend hundreds of dollars on custom illustrations for these. I'd rather keep that money to hire real artists for my physical album releases and use whatever is available for content that people don't actively watch.
@@VolkorX Okay cool but I didn't say you HAD to pay an artist for this? You could use pre-made, made by humans, artwork? What'd you do before AI art was a thing? Just do that. Why are you using a fallacy? There are other options aside from "pay artists hundreds of dollars". AI works on taking artists' work without their permission. If nobody's looking at the screen why is it important to have art in the BG? Could be a basic space BG honestly. Even larger musicians, who can afford art, will sometimes choose to use AI instead of pay an artist so to me it's more a mindset thing than a "can I afford it?" thing. Can't afford/don't wanna pay for art on this video? Okay, sure, then don't- there are alternative cheap options. As someone whose supported you for years, including financially, it is disappointing. As far as I'm concerned- you're a legend in this genre... so yeah it's sad to see because I know artists are hurting from AI. It's great when you pay artists but when you can't/won't then just do something not AI. You did it before this technology so simply do it again. If you disagree that AI art is theft and bad I recommend you look into what many pro artists are saying about it. P.S. since it was mentioned I also think you deserve a larger cut from YT. $1/month is pretty lame you should get more.
@@VolkorX ONE LAST THING- I do hope you change your mind on AI. But aside from this... I do appreciate your contribution to music and to synthwave. The work you've done in the genre, IMO, is up there with Gunship, Carpenter Brut, Lazerhawk, among others.
@@ragnaroksunset Imagine not knowing how AI works and thinking it's the same as doing digital music. Unfortunately I'm not you so I can only imagine... it's not reality for me.

This is pretty much how it happens!
Imagination is all in post rock.

Volkor X just doesn't f*cking miss.
Majestic.
Best !
I keep returning to this track, it's amazing. It kinda gives me strength in our dark times

Spacewave will always be my fav genre at this point
Я под этот трек читала "Преступление и наказание".
Стало еще депрессивней 🥲
I’m glad you decided to include this one on the album, it is one of my top 3 favourites ❤
I think at this point it is impossible for you to not make a banger. Well done!
Synth magic
Absolute banger.
My master can u respectively show us a little tutorial of how u make your masterpieces that would be cool😅❤
Maybe I'll think about making short how-to videos. Not full song tutorials, because I wouldn't know how to explain it!!
@VolkorX yea that would be awesome 👌
Real shame you used AI for some of your imagery man. You were one of my faves.

Imagine loving a genre that features synthesized drum kits and getting mad that one of the artists uses AI imagery.
