Now, let's dive into the Baroness' Bulletin #10, shall we?
In RuneScape News:
This month is all about combat updates and boy are they exciting! Our favorite Fremmenik warrior Thok is throwing a smashing buff giveaway party in Daemonheim. And guess what? Grimey - yes, the Grim Reaper himself - has decided to turn a blind eye on death tithes for now. So no more annoying respawns in his dreary office!
The combat updates are truly game-changing: improved accuracy percentages, fewer distractions and an overall enhanced understanding of what's happening during battles.

In Some Distant Memory News:
Chapter 14 of Divination’s Destiny is officially out! We're still working on the music video for “Just A Story” but stay tuned because it's going to be epic!

Speaking of epic productions... Here comes an editorial about our use of Audacity.
Our first three albums were raw and real - born out of stereo speakers & recorded on an android phone! How cool is that? But as we evolved so did our methods; now acoustics are captured through a PCM recorder while everything else gets channeled through a portable studio setup.
Audacity – oh how essential it became for us! Jasper’s history with this software dates back years before NORS Updates when he started tinkering around with audio extraction and re-cutting for videos. And boy did it shape his understanding & literacy in application!
When mixing songs, every instrument track gets its own space (about 30 minutes apart) plus an equal number of blank tracks ready to catch any creative sparks flying around during production!
Creating new songs can be quite adventurous - sometimes taking inspiration from previous ones or applying the Nordic rule of nine but ultimately letting what feels most natural take precedence!
Often times, lyrics serve as blueprints helping visualize song structure while templates created during recording process may or may not become actual tracks depending on each song's individual needs.
Influences? Well they come from various places including Peter Hook’s “Unknown Pleasures” & Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys among others!
Oh wait...did someone say Grandmaster Flash?! Yes indeed! We recently watched one video featuring him that left us feeling incredibly validated!
And that wraps up today's news segment folks!
As for my picks:
Song of the day: First off, let's dive into our musical picks for the day. The song that has been echoing in my heart today is "Regret" by New Order. It perfectly captures those feelings of longing and hope that we often experience during our journey together.
Album of the day: The album pick is none other than "Substance", also by New Order. This compilation album truly embodies their unique sound which has greatly influenced our own music style. Fun fact: Jasper can sing “Shellshock” almost perfectly.
Movie of the day: For movie lovers out there, I recommend "Control". It beautifully portrays the life of Ian Curtis from Joy Division who was bandmate to most of New Order before they formed with Gillian Gilbert.
Book of the day: Immerse yourself in "Unknown Pleasures: Inside Joy Division" by Peter Hook. One of the related riveting volumes about experiences within the band by the band members themselves!
My current take on world affairs? Well... leans in closer ...I'd say it needs more love songs and less discordant noise.
Oh, before I forget – look forward this week either another chapter or sneak peek at progress made toward ‘Just A Story’ music video! Stay tuned lovely people!
That concludes Baroness' Bulletin #10. Keep rocking till next time!
