IHOPEYOULIVE
IHOPEYOULIVE is a monument to the things we tend to forget. Let me be your host in this journey of reminding ourselves of the power, strength and wisdom we already carry deep inside of us. This channel is about motivation, inspiration and encouragement. It's about sharing knowledge, philosophy and psychology, based on theories, experiences and sometimes science. All texts, edits and music by me. There are some guest artists every now and then - always mentioned and highlighted!
Regard this channel as a safe haven, where like-minded souls share their thoughts, ideas, struggles and hardships.

Stay the course, everybody. I HOPE YOU LIVE.

I just wanted to take a second to mention - once more - a few IMPORTANT things.
- Videos will always be free for all. BUT, since there's something like channel members - I wanted to give a little benefit to those who support this channel this way.
Consider this: Someone supports a project you're working on,
something you put all of your passion and time into.
Wouldn't you want to give them a small benefit for it -
even if it's just something like an early access to new videos?
I do. And I think that's the least I can do. Same goes for Patreon.
That being said, I repeat:
The videos will always be available to everybody -
just with a different release date.
One thing though: There might be small adjustments to videos every now and then,
when I want to change something in the process. I think it's only logical that I don't upload mutliple versions of a video here, but still make them available to channel members and patrons instead. Doesn't happen too often, but I still wanted to mention it.
- The use of artificial intelligence
I mentioned this a few times already, but I want to repeat it:
Yes, I do work with AI regarding specific aspects of the voice. Multiple reasons for that:
- I love tech. I used to code a lot (language processing programs), which means I've got a natural interest in these things (not only with a scientific approach, but also with childlike fascination).
- The texts are written by myself. BUT I use AI to check my grammar every once in awhile. I'm not a native speaker so it occurs that I'm unsure regarding the right use every now and then. When I think about a sentence more than five minutes, I'll let AI check. When the text is finished, I let AI check again, for obvious reasons. This makes it possible for me to draw from personal experiences as well. Psychology and tech (among sports, music and philosophy) are my basic interests in life - always have been. So it comes naturally to write these texts myself - with the tools I can use to refine everything. On top of that: It allows me to continue with this project. Which brings me to the AI voice - something I really do enjoy. I can totally relate to everyone who enjoys organic, natural, real voices, full of emotion and expression. Yet, the use of an AI does not only bring me some sort of joy (and looking for ways I can refine the process itself), but it allows me to work much more efficient and in a way where it's possible for these videos to be online - without restrictions or even takedowns.
- Gravemind cannot be continued. Today's world doesn't allow such a project to exist any longer - at least not the way it was. I'm in awe for the countless messages that I receive. People have a deep connection to that channel and I do too. Still, sometimes we have to let go of the things that matter to us. Especially in this case. Consider this: You're putting hundreds of hours of your precious time into something - only for it being removed a few months later (sometimes all it took were a few days). I spent too much time on that already.
That's it for today. New video tomorrow (yes, for everyone).
Next week's video is almost finished as well.
The bandcamp page is ready for everyone who wants to download wavs or mp3s for free and all major streaming services have them available too. Links are always posted within the descriptions of the videos.
Stay the course, everybody.

It's about time...
What has never been possible with Gravemind is now possible through IHYL.
Starting next week, IHYL will be available on all major streaming platforms, such as:
Spotify, apple musis/iTunes, deezer, amazon music and everywhere else.
BUT: There will be changes in regard to the original versions (music).
However, these files receive a new mix and mastering, in order to make them sound as good as possible.
Please be patient and give me some time to adjust to this new task (won't be perfect straight from the start).
I'll keep you posted when the first track goes online and the profiles are set up as well.
Stay the course, everybody. YOU got this.

P.S. new video is almost done as well!
