aether: lmao

xiao: 2:15

 

venti: :crying_laugh: :crying_laugh:
LMAO
it's so bad its so good

 

xiao: im not
im not dealing with this
idc if you guys r cringe but leave me out of it

 

venti: i thought we were ur family :((( 3333

 

xiao: i said no cringe

 

venti: but i'm just saying what u said before?
so it's not cringe unless ur cringe
unless? :pointing_finger_right: :pointing_finger_left:

 

xiao: kys
no but like how am i even supposed to mix this

 

aether: hmm
honestly? its not even that bad
the baseline and the higher pitched mewing
makes for a nice contrast

 

kazuha: :thumbs_up:
^ aether gets it

 

xiao: why r u siding with them

 

kazuha: I added the mewing :)

 

xiao: :skull::skull::skull::skull::skull::skull::skull:
WHYYY

 

kazuha: i think it it sounds nice

 

xiao: i can't tell if ur joking or serious

 

kazuha: if you don't like it we can take it out tho :ok_sign:

 

xiao: you know what i give up
someone send me a copy of the version sans mewing pls thanks

(read by 3)

 

xiao: guys????

 

aether: don't you have it?

 

xiao: no
I just got a new pc and that reset my cloud backups

 

kazuha: just checked. I’ve got the raw instrumentals but nothing more recent

 

aether: sry. photoshop was taking too much storage so i might've deleted some things

 

venti: my cat ate my hard drive

 

xiao: i'm happy for u for getting over ur cat allergies

 

venti: ty fam <3

 

xiao: actually kys
inst mix is fully merged in the version i have
and that sound is on that layer
i literally can't edit it out without screwing over everything else

 

kazuha: D:
oh, I'm sorry
I thought we had multiple versions

 

xiao: no it's fine i thought so too
its not ur fault LITERALLY NO ONE HAS A BACKUP

 

aether: so... we only have the mewing one rn?

 

venti: the word choice is sending me

 

xiao: unfortunately, aside from the raws kazuha has, yes

 

aether: so the fact that we have a version at all is saving our us from having to restart from raws

 

xiao: upload date is next week
we're cooked
its actually over
:kneeling:

 

venti: what if we likekept it
i'm listening to the part again and ngl it's not that bad
i kinda like it better with than without

 

aether: srs or no srs?

 

venti: i’m 1000% srs

 

xiao:…
ok in that one specific context at 2:15 it surprisingly doesn't sound like shit
but random ass mewing is completely out of place w/ the rest of the track

 

venti: add more

 

xiao: ?


venti: mewing i mean
if we added some to the rest of the track it won't be so out of place

 

xiao: ???????

 

aether: usually i'd say yea we should try more things but this might be a stretch

 

venti: i have a vision give me a moment
