Tilldrawn's News

Posted by Tilldrawn - October 6th, 2024


Tis I, here again wid more thoughts about subcultures. Just wanted to share something which I was thinking pretty hard about last night and found interesting.


In case you didn't know what the internet is, it's a medium where you can document information and communicate with others, and such information can be accessed from all across the globe, from anyone with a machine able to access it. It also has a place called Newgrounds and it's the coolest fricking thing ever holy shit.


Anyway, it has made a new medium for to subcultures form.

Ok, me being a UK dweller, let's talk about punk and reggae. Reggae started because the British hated Jamaicans and punk because they hated. Poor people I guess. If you were a fan of these things I'm guessing you grew up in a place where bands and musicians preformed these things regularly, and shops sold the records and people appreciated them and whatnot (MOSTLY of course). And as such, there's like a clothing style and even and accent associated with it, noteable places associated with it, stuff like that.


NOW let's talk about Neobreak culture. Where is it based in? Where's it from? Who? Wha?? Yknow??

(Neobreak being the name I bestowed onto the modern "breakcore" scene which isn't actually breakcore to avoid mislabelling. Essentially combinations of atmosphertic and ambient DnB and Jungle and that whole aesthetic along with it. i made a post some time ago about it).


Now, it obviously has main figures like Sewerslvt and Usedcvnt and whatever the hell else. It has a style to the music, it's got stuff going on. But it's not like punk or reggae. Because it's not in the real world. It's on the internet.


Let's break it down for a second. What kind of place is associated with it? You COULD say the UK, but hang on one second. Just about every genre it's inspired by is from there, sure, but if you think about Jungle for example, it's just as real as punk or reggae. It was played at shows. Hundreds of millions of raves, everywhere. Neobreak isn't played anywhere, and I would go as far as to say that it's not played anywhere because none of the appreciators are even old enough to GO to a rave. (In a few years, maybe when Gen Z start becoming mostly 21+ and all the current 21+ers have ppl to go with).

It wouldn't make sense to say that because an artist was, Idk, let's say, Australian... That there will be many fans in Australia. Because it's on the internet, and anyone listens from anywhere around the world.

There's no shows or band practice involved, its not played in any bars or whatnot. There's no reason for it to be linked to a location because it's all online.

Even the CREATION is all dematerialised. If you look at the way Jungle was made in its prime, there's machinery everywhere, there's sampling equipment, all of that, and if you played stuff live you would even have some real life stuff going on, even if it is mostly just mixing records on a DJ set. Also Jamaicans and black people singing/rapping in microphones over it, that was real as anything. Neobreak is completely digitalized, and you just need a DAW and you're good to go. (Some MIDI keyboards help too, like in my case. They seriously do, if you wanna produce then get a cheap MIDI controller or two, it will help loads).


As far as I'm aware, there isn't any Neobreak fashion, but if there was I'm guessing it would rip off the Egirl movement (so by extention it would just rip off emo and goth culture :P I think the Japanese and Korean street fashion fusion is cool as fuck though). Which would suck for everyone else but, I mean, think about it, That would actually be kind of cool. If it had it's own clothing style associated with the music and aesthetic. But it doesn't, because it doesn't really need to. Not yet anyway.


It DOES have a kind of mood and reason for the movement, I will give it that. It's like a centre for broken, terminally online, depressed teenagers, all on some kind of spectrum (autism of LGBTQ), who all have some kind of trauma or pain. And I think that's kinda beautiful about it. Also to all the people who trash these kids for mass-reproducing stuff in Sewerslvt's aesthetic, I don't get why you're so mad. Like, who cares. Who actually cares. Every genre evolves and gets taken in a new direction, that's what it does, that's why it bloody exists. And of course it's not all gonna be amazing, they are literally babies and most of the time it's their first time producing something proper. So cut them some slack, and maybe in time, you will see the scene alter as they grow up and get better at producing and find their artistic voice a little more.

The mislabelling as "Breakcore" is what annoys me and is pretty much the only problem.

Also I get that Sewerslvt has done some horrendous things in the past, but I believe that you can like an artists work without liking the artist. I still appreciate her for being a pioneer of the 2020 Neobreak Revolution, and maybe one day I'll do a post drooling and glazing her discography.


Anyway, my point is that I just think it's interesting how neobreak is an example of a culture which is so strong yet cultivated all in a medium where nothing physical or real is felt.

This is by no means anything new, I just thought it was fun to think about.

There is no place on earth associated with it, shows aren't played, records aren't even bought, its all online (except for a few vinyls and CD's here and there with more famous artists). There's no clothing style, the art aesthetics are all digital, and it's just not implemented the real world in its appreciation like its predecessors. And if you're a fan of the music and aesthetic, you likely know nobody else who is, because there's like 5 fans in total and we're all spread across the globe.


Yet everybody just feels like they can relate

I guess words are a mo

Ladies and gents of Newgrounds it's once again time to bathe in an acid bath of sick rejoice because I just dropped my best EP yet, DYLAN DEADHEAD.

Featuring the buzziest breaks and boomi-est basslines, as well as a trip down the sweet, mellow route of melody and harmony through the likes of a piano and some drippy, picky, sweet plucks.

Sometimes they combine.


Find the full compilation on my Newgrounds playlist, in my audio section, or here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_F9vDKVbSY


edit: this might also be a good time to announce the creation of The BEST of Tilldrawn. A place to find what is, in my opinion, and sometimes the opinions of others, the best of my works.

Okay, so there is an actual next EP underway now, after a long long time of just trying stuff out.

Here is some insight:

-The defining genres are gonna be breakcore and jungle

-It,s gonna be an EP, just a little song sandwich

-It;s gonna use breaks

-It:s gonna be really cool

-It]s

-it*s

-it@s


Okay, I know what you're thinking. (Or not thinking, if you don't care less about my discography).

"Tilldrawn, this is the third damn time you're 'trying stuff out and having fun with breakcore and breakbeat stuff'.

It was good and all with CRYPTOGRAPHIXX, you expanded on it a little with HABRÁ MATANZA and now THIS?? You might as well be a full-on breakbeat artist now, just forget bitpop"


AND THE THING IS YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT ABOUT THE FACT THAT I'M ADDICTED TO PLAYING WITH BREAKS

But I just wanna play around a little more...


I swear, as soon as I finish this EP and finish abusing these tracks, I'll make TWO bitpop albums. Not one, but TWO. I will visit my other house on the other side of the electronic spectrum and spend a while there. Maybe even a couple bitpop EPs after that, god knows.


I HAVE NOT GIVEN UP ON MAKING BITPOP, I have even made a couple bitpop ID's as of recently. But I won't be releasing anything until after the torn8do (if you know what i mean).


honestly i shouldnt be obsessing this much over what genre i make, and instead i should just shut up and make it, but just in case you were wondering.


UNTIL THEN ILL BE M8KIN BR8KIN PANCAKES


and for those of you who enjoy that stuff... GET READY FOR THIS BECAUSE BOYYYYYY ITS THE BEST ONE YET

WE'RE TALKIN GARISH, EXPLOSIVE BEATS THAT WILL GRAB YOU BY YOUR EYES AND FLING YOU TO A DIFFERENT UNIVERSE.



Posted by Tilldrawn - August 6th, 2024


The 2020 neo-breakbeat soldier SOUNDKVLTURE just released this massive tune. And GUESS who did the artowork for it?

She was just kinda chillin tho

At one point I teamed up with one dude. I don't think they knew at the time though, it was a while after they drew that little laser fella.

iu_1246622_18225265.webp


The situation was so hot, at one point the fricking RUMBLE RANGERS had to join in.


iu_1246623_18225265.webp


It was wild. One or two things on the edges aren't part of it, but I had to include them anyway for the sake of the screenshot box.


iu_1246624_18225265.webp


This was my second ever day on Drawpile, and was the most fun I've had drawing, or doing anything really, in a while. Thanks.

I haven't gone back to it yet but I imagine its about the same.


Posted by Tilldrawn - August 4th, 2024


IMAGES ARE NOT HOW THEY ORIGINALLY APPEARED AS ALL SCREENSHOTS WERE TAKEN AFTER THE WAR


It all began on a Drawpile session. Everything was gangsta till some vertical line appears somehow around the edge of the canvas, right in front of where this one peep was doing their thing. So I guess this meant, in the words of everyone, "segregation", "marginalization" and, in my words, "banishment".

o then they were all like "What if I were to..." and hittem with one of these

iu_1246600_18225265.png


I tried to reinforce the law but there was resistence from the oppressed

iu_1246601_18225265.webp


There was a lot of fear in reaction of the public about this as they watched the horrors unfold.

"Sh*t hitting the ceiling" - The initiator of this conflict can still be seen on the right, not colourized. Photo taken by an unknown source, believed to be dead.

iu_1246603_18225265.png


I, being the reasonable person I am, decided to hittem widda

iu_1246604_18225265.png


My requests were rejected and my ability to request further help was revoked, however the message was sent anyway and was later picked up by other stations.

After some time it gained some traction.

For a while, the initial resistence was joined by other forces. They were also the first to install mechs in their arsenal.


iu_1246608_18225265.webp


iu_1246609_18225265.webp


The resistence set up a sniper to counted the UFO strike on the other side.

iu_1246610_18225265.png

However I just countered it with more UFO's. Our team rolled out the biggest UFO in our fleet for this one, ready to obliterate these scrubs out of existence. Dr. Caustic joined in sometime later as well.

People were out here FIRIN THEIR LAZORS


iu_1246612_18225265.webp


Then this dude appeared, I forgot the name of it. It was something -zilla.

iu_1246613_18225265.webp


It just continued to grow. Eventually the resistence got a certain toilet on their side.


iu_1246614_18225265.webp


iu_1246615_18225265.webp


Some even tried voting for peace.
