Can I use your music in my stream / content?
Yes! Just please credit me back! Feel free to put my
Spotify
or
Twitch
(or even both!)
I strongly believe in the fair use of music and am trying my best to never have my music in Content ID system! (◕‿◕)♡
This is only about my original music though, i do not own the rights to any of my covers, so I can't give you permission for that!
What is your ethnicity, nationality, etc?
I am russian. Born here, raised here, never been abroad. All my relatives are russian too (at least it's stated like that in their docs, who knows what Soviet era erased).
I'm currently living in Saint Petersburg!
Education?
I graduated from a small music school in a middle of nowhere (no college or anything fancier).
I spent 7 years there :)
How to get good at piano?
I strongly believe I am not good, so I can't help you on that!
I am NOT talented. I've seen talented people IRL, and I'm not one of them
Here is a link to Cambridge Dictionary about "TALENT"
I didn't have a piano at home, so the first 3-4 years of music school I couldn't practice at home, but had to pretend really hard that I did, so I developed my sight reading skills earlier than they told us the name for it.
I also really enjoy sight-reading, and get extremely bored playing the same stuff over and over, so I guess a combination of the two made me into who I am today (⌒ω⌒)
Favourite ______ ?
In short: I don't have favourites. These are just some things that came to my mind.
Song to play: none! Some of my favourites are marked with 🌸 in the Songlist, i barely update them though!
Music: Sound Horizon, HYDE, Muse, L'Arc-en-Ciel, various anime and vgm OST
Videogames: NieR, Persona, FFXIV, Cytus II, HI3rd
Anime: FMA:Brotherhood, Evangelion (all of them), Trinity Blood, Rurouni Kenshin
Manga: Petshop of Horrors, FMA, Evangelion, X
Movies/Series: idk, don't watch them that much
Why English only on your stream?
First of all - it's an international language that most people know to a degree.
While yes, I can speak russian, not everyone in chat can understand that, and I don't want people to feel excluded because I use another language for some parts.
I know exactly how it feels because I watch a lot of streamer from various places of the Earth, and I always feel terrible when I can't understand them.
Second reason - some of my mods do not speak Russian at all, making it impossible to moderate the chat properly. No translator can translate specific slang that only native speaker can understand.
Same goes for other languages - they may know other languages, but I don't, so I straight up don't know if you say bad or good things my way.
Plus Twitch wants us to remove hateful comments, which I am not able to do if I do not understand (´・д・`)

Plushies? ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
Why so many? Idk :)
But how many? I didn't count them, also the number changes every couple of months? I have more outside of the stream frame...
I see them as a small presents from me to myself for all the hard work I do 人´∀`)
Only a couple of them were gifted to me, I purchased most of them myself ᵔᴥᵔ
Favourites? No favourites, all of them are precious.
Names? Never named any plushies, I find it weird.
Where did you get them? AliExpress + local shops (selling the same aliexpress stuff probs lmao).
Do you play in an orchestra/band? Do you perform live? World tour?
I am a full-time streamer, composing my own little songs in my off stream time, and that's it.
Live performance is extremely expensive, especially when nobody knows you + all your viewers are from different countries.

SINGING????
My sound setup is very complicated. It requires some weird routing to have low latency piano sound so I am actually able to perform.
Due to that, i literally can not sing on stream even if i wanted to. I need to remake my setup for it all to be heard on stream.
It's all very confusing, but basically i will have an insane delay between my voice and a backing track.
I CAN , in fact, sing, since it was required in music school. I can hit some notes.
My voice was considered mezzo-soprano in school, even though i believe i am closer to alto (my note range is very limited and i actually don't fit in any voice range)
I hum stuff for fun, but that's it, my voice is not suited for singing.
