There’s an Aztec city building game called Tlatoani. It’s in early access, but has enough meat on the bone that it’s one of my goto games.

Out of curiosity I checked Steam DB for active player numbers. I have discovered at any given point I am 10% to 25% of the given player base BY MYSELF. I am 1 of 4 people playing this game right now in the world. With the prevalence of the internet I always assume whatever weird bullshit you’re into there’s at least a thousand people talking about it; making memes outsiders could never comprehend. It’s actually novel to fly under the radar for once.

What do you do that doesn’t have a community associated with it?

    My familiarity with Japanese jazz is very limited to even the “obvious” ones are a treat.

    In the interests of fair trade, here’s a scattering of what I’ve enjoyed lately. Some of it has a similar sound but there’s a lot of variance in the “jazz fusion” space and I like experimental stuff:

    • Peela
    • Lydian Collective
    • Giraffes? Giraffes!
      • More Skin With Milk-Mouth remains excellent
    • KNOWER
      • Their latest album in particular, as well as the most recent solo work of constituent parts Louis Cole and Genevieve Artadi
    • DOMi & JD BECK
    • Jacob Mann
      • Jacob Mann Big Band is more traditional and I’m a sucker for a good brass section
    • the olllam
      • I don’t actually know how to describe this but Irish folk is involved and “with pure crystalll teeth” fills me with dopamine
    • Sungazer
    • The Fearless Flyers
      • Tailwind is a really good album
    • Moon Hooch
      • They’re silly and frenetic but I did say I’m a sucker for brass
