an article containing an excerpt from an interview with me has been published! i said way more stuff, but i guess i'm not as interesting as i think i am. (KIDDING!) i believe this marks the first time i have been interviewed about my art.

a few days ago, i noticed that a profile had been created for me on rateyourmusic.com, courtesy of AvaFalli, and there's nobody quite. like. me. was there. last night, i got my first rating, a track-by-track rating by user FickleberryJohn. he was not a fan of "(tlotfwb) priceless".

i've given reading machine tabs and TNQLM tabs their own respective pages instead of jammin' them under the lyrics, for better ease of readability.


7-17-24

after months and months of work, the catalogue is finally available to the public! i invite you to rifle through it at your leisure.


7-11-24

my second album, There's Nobody Quite. Like. Me., is out on Bandcamp! it'll be out on streaming soon, i think. i have an idea for a fun little promo video that'll come out tonight.


6-30-24

something happened. something incredibly strange.


6-16-24

...nah, nah, i remembered that this exists... okay, developments: i started a comic strip under a pen name, i mailed reading machine CDs to two people (marking the first time i gave a physical copy of a Ben in a House release to anybody), i did a crazy challenge, i got an art fight account (so that i could get free fanart of the characters from aforementioned comic strip), and i got a job. like, a JOB job. part-time, but still. so yeah, i'm one busy cat.

2 days ago, i... well, i... ...god, what's wrong with me? why can't i just let things go? why can't i just delete all the stupid songs i made during my stupid caretaker phase and let them fall away into oblivion? it's not like i like them. oh, well. whatever. treat that page as a playlist of cool songs from the 30s and earlier.


3-25-24

my collaborative project with dylan of secret agent tapes, fun factory, has released their debut lp! gimme a bit to finish up the page on my website, but in the mean time, you can go check it out and listen to it (and BUY IT) on his website.


3-13-24

happy birthday henry! made ya a little somethin'...


2-??-24

made a page on my website for my language that i made all by myself. just in case anybody wanted to read about my shitty conlang.


2-4-24

i released an... interesting album today. was plenty of fun to make, hope you like it!


1-15-24

i've added my son's album to my website! he shyly asked me if he could be on my website. of course you can be on here, libby. don't be like your dad.


12-31-23

against my better judgement, volumes 1 through 4 (albums i made on bandlab) are now available on bandcamp! i heard there's a bunch of bonus tracks on the bandcamp release, some of which have never seen the light of day...


12-26-23

i made a video for christmas yesterday :)
i also got all my christmas gifts... very pleased


12-11-23

discord updated their file hosting thing so that stuff gets deleted after a while so that evil hackers can't keep using the same haxxors.webm file all the time. if things start to go missing on my website, scream at me really loud and i'll fix it


11-25-23

HOORAY!!! at long last, reading machine has been released! i also signed up for a subscription to distrokid, so i'm gonna see how putting my music on streaming turns out. additionally, the release of my album has resulted in the establishment of Little Bird Has Flower For You, which is the "label" i released my album under. so that's cool.


11-16-23

finished recreating my wikipedia page. you can read about its tragic backstory there (in the footnote).


10-25-23

i made a page for my fawm album. every album i make here on out will have a fun page like this. (if i forget, scream in my ear and do not relent until i fix it. scream so loud)


10-25-23

released standalone song "i've got grapes" yesterday. in more interesting news, on october 12, a fawmer named "fuzzy" did a cover of one of my fawm songs! that's the first cover i've gotten! yay!!!


9-29-23

i finished making all 50 songs! what an adventure, as otis sharp would say. fawm was a really cool website to put my songs on because a whole different demographic of people were seeing it than usual (older people). it was also super duper fun to do alongside my chum oily bastard. might do it again, not sure yet. i will release my music on bandcamp and youtube soon!


8-18-23

i am now at college. like, i'm there. like, i live there. crazy shit. someone complimented my jack stauber t-shirt.


7-17-23

i am participating in fawm's 50/90 challenge. i have released 10 songs so far and have 77 days to go. here is my profile.


5-6-23

i got a spacehey account. i can do more advanced html things over there because i don't have to pay to unlock Advance Features.

happy birthday brother! i finally set up this page. i will post important news about me. (disclaimer: content of news will primarily, if not solely be based on the ridiculous escapades of John Benjamin Schuyler Clerk-Glenander. ben news will most likely fail to cover more prevalent subjects, unless the event somewhat correlates to ben, like if stephen colbert mysteriously vanishes (which would mean my plan worked))
