Well I'm back to this blog now. Here comes 2025!!!

__ w w w . l e h r . m e__

    Welcome back to my blog! a lot of time has passed since the original website at www.lehr.me was taken down and replaced with like 10 others throughout the course of months since early 2024. Now with the new year about to hit, I chose my favorite website of all time or at least one that had the most potential to become one and you'll find it at www.lehr.me!

    Instead of "starting anew" this year and trying a brand new website ten more times and not getting done, I picked up where I left off with this old one. So far I've plotted how I will create some hopefully "pretty damn cool" animated gifs or mouseover animated gifs on the left side of the main site. 

    The Classic Games section is up next alongside the rest of the classic doom megasite. I feel that the rest is for now where it can just be for a while but these really need attention. Why have them? Well if you came for Project Warlock, chances are you like music (I've finished that portion. And I'm assuming this because you came for my OST or more information) and old video games. 

    The Classic Games section will have a full roster of old dos games. I'm planning to at least have 200 for now to get it set up and ready for viewing. I need at least ONE for each letter also. That's also a self-made requirement. It'll have each game housed in the "GAME" folder within a zip, also having DOSBOX and a unique configuration file for the game, tested and ready, all called from a simple batch file that is more or less "unzip... click... and play!" for people who aren't tech savvy when it comes to old dos stuff. I would prefer not only have people that know dos, since its from the 80s and early 90s. 

    Next will be the Classic DOOM Megasite project. I've mostly made a huge dent in it. But I want it to be as close to all-inclusive with related goods to DOOM and making/playing it as one person can possibly do with my schedule. Its been on the backburner slowly getting small attention for years and I feel the time has come to pull it into the light soon as well. 

    As for new music to come, eventually I will have (and am very close to) a cheap twelve disc set in two sections for "The Absynthium Collective." Don't panic. Its dirt cheap. Under $40 cheap! Once I finish the already started second disc of MOMENTUM, the fourth double album on it, I already have 3 outtakes discs, one for each double album so far. So last will be the twelfth disc, PENDULUM. which should make sense, since its the 12th. It will be like the clock is also ticking for the next one. Its more or less an "everything else" disc. That's not necessarily due to lack of quality, for it's just stuff that didn't fit on the others. Some duo collaborations where Luke from Project Warlock OST remixed a couple of my songs so I blended both versions together, and some MORE extended remixes of things from the four double albums included.

    Also I will call it quits for Noise Vaults after #12 I think. I'm not done with guitar by a long shot, I'm just going to either start a new series or just do what I want without having any sort of structure to it or numbering system. I'm not Trent Reznor or the Insane Clown Posse or anything like that. Its not "album trilogy time" anymore. It's just, what I want when I want ;)

    As for the semi-hidden goofy shit, Cherry Rounders is on the backburner but his website is the first priority if I ever get around to him again. Its ridiculously retarded but a LOT still find him online and have probably lost hope in any new material since the few songs since 2006 when I just stopped and moved to Will and Jerry. There will be two normal audio CDs for sale for the first two compilations. I will have a soundcloud account for digital-only rehashes of old songs blended into weird eps that all connect in themselves in bizarre ways. All I will do will be available free digitally, but cost a tiny amount for a physical release. I'm also considering stickers, bumper stickers, and t-shirts, but really I'm not sure about that one.

    Lastly, Project Warlock 2 is still in development. Since it was in early access people get a large chunk at a time in the form of a theme. We went back and redux'd the first one after we started the second one due to complaints of the levels being a half hour long. We did the same for theme 2 with major touchups and my role of the musician took me back to the western elements of the second theme that I had thought weren't going to fit and I wasn't good at. I loved my changes. I listened to them for like two solid weeks in my car. Theme 3 I can promise you will be even better!!!!

Timekillers and Nightmares of Loki 25th Anniversary Edition


Time killers for DOOM is a work in progress that I've stopped progress on for a bit. I have a feeling I might not make my self-created deadline for the OTHER project if I don't. What is the other project? Well, I've already attempted it in 1999. It was a fail bigtime. I said it took four years and the span was definitely four years BUT most of that time was off and on and spent hanging out with friends and doing a band thing. It was also high school so I was mostly there of course. It was called Nightmares of Loki and it may have been disliked by the doom community. This is not a sequel but a reboot, as if that didn't happen, but also since I have a story and an arsenal of stock music I've saved up. I was planning a sequel at first in 2002-2003 called Loki's Realm but since learning some ACS and deciding on extended bestiary I've concocted a 9-episode story with 100+ music tracks and its going to be a tough bite to chew. The sound effects and shitty texture and enemy recolored replacements back then are gone. So are the extremely long levels without any detail. I'm going to shoot finally for actual sized levels and make it look like it was a real game almost. The only thing it will have in common with the original is the dark atmosphere The 9 episodes will be spread throughout three games, the first two having cliffhangers and the third changing perspectives. I wrote Episodes 7-9 in college way back in '03-'05 and did nothing with the story but rewrite it recently. They will be for Doom II this time. The episodes are as follows:

GAME 1
Episode 1: The 25-Year Ghost
Episode 2: The NASA Rebel
Episode 3: Project H.A.V.O.C

GAME 2:
Episode 4: In Search of Loki
Episode 5: Loki's Revelations
Episode 6: Universe At War


GAME 3:
Episode 7: Leaving Earth
Episode 8: Visions of Loki
Episode 9: Awakening Sage

September Additions and Plans

Now when you enter lehr.me you'll find a sixty-track sampler and media player that lets you hear some of the stuff inside without actually even needing to enter yet or at all! 





Future plans for next month include using a shit ton of themed Temu stickers I just ordered and making some handwritten website pages again using sketches, printed stuff, stickers, and other such fun vintage-looking stuff. This time the outer area around the books will have decor too, like skulls and other such props. I'll also use red and amber lights and whatever else I can to get a new tint to things so things are less boring.

Happy Birthday, Bee!!

Today is my wife's 35th birthday, and in order to celebrate she isn't only getting a medusa tattoo, no. She got an EP of my very first serious vocal recordings I've ever done, since she's the one who wanted to hear them recorded... 


I created four songs for her, and also a cover of her very favorite song... Mad World!

Noisebox One, Under Construction...

 

CLICK TO ENLARGE...

This is my next creation, other than quickly finishing whats left of my site other than the favorite things section. The favorite things section will take months off and on and be more of a background for-fun-fansites sort of thing.

This is Noise Box One...

I am also working on "The Dybbuk's Box of Noise and Fun" which will have all of my recent software creations surrounding music and old games and mods.

What it will do is play every single track I've made, ever. I was going to have it pull stuff from the internet but unfortunately that sets off virus software like crazy! So instead I'll have a free version still, but it'll only have partial amounts of music. The full release will be $20 digitally and over 5 gigabytes including all the music. There will also be a manufactured-on-demand $30 flash drive stick version that comes in an armaray case, hopefully with artwork by Nate Vaught. Nate Vaught did the art for both Cherry Rounders in 2007, and Will and Jerry in 2011.

The Dybbuk's Box of Noise and Fun
will have the "No-no NSFW" music. Over 200 tracks of it. It will also have a shit ton of freeware and old shareware games for DOSBox that launch from it just because, they're normally free! This is to rekindle more old school gaming. I'll even throw in a lot of my favorite doom wads and mods that are licensed for free distribution only. Doom and Doom II will of course be required.

I will also have every single thing on my site in one downloaded chunk, all the music from multiple bandcamps, and other stuff, like my new project HyperNations Talkbox. You'll just have to see what all I end up doing when I release it. For those wondering, Noisebox One will cost exactly the same as The Dybbuk's Box, since the music you are paying for is on both. The Dybbuk's Box will just be a much larger download for you to sit through.

Gaining Momentum... Bellum, Tantrum, and Opium

 

 

Behold.
The trio that makes up Momentum, Disc 1.
I have just finished Opium last night, and
damn I'm satisfied with it ;)

Bellum was a pretty cool start, and my favorite of these three eps

Tantrum was a clusterfudge of both outtakes and new stuff

Opium takes a venture into some more beautiful territory
