Hello, hello! It's time for your weekly updates on what's happening behind the scenes over here. Spoiler alert: a lot!
First up: Art commissions! Things are moving along at a good clip. Though there was a hiccup with one of the banner possibilities, resulting in a cancellation. That aside, everything is officially ordered, paid for and I've even gotten a few prel...
2023-03-21 23:23:51 +0000 UTC View PostEarly access time again! Yay. This audio will be out on youtube March 22, and is the sequel to Making Your Tsundere Mech Pilot Confess.

2023-03-15 22:46:56 +0000 UTC View PostIt’s been a long week, folks! I have a ton of irons in the fire right now, with all sorts of goodies on the way. I’m feeling pretty great about where I’m at with everything, but also a little frazzled just because of how much there is to juggle behind the scenes right now. My day job is also kicking my ass, making it basically impossible to work on audio stuff until late at night, but I'm...
2023-03-14 02:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostSo, after a lot of shopping around, going back and forth with artists, etc. I've narrowed down some original art commissions for the channel! While some will be for youtube use, I also promised to get some for Patreon eyes only! So...I'd like your input on what to get!
There are three art categories to choose from at this time, and any art resulting from this poll will be of the channel m...
2023-03-09 22:07:54 +0000 UTC View PostExtra early access time! I have no idea when this will premiere on youtube; depends on scheduling with my collab partner. But here it is for Patrons, anyhow!
Someday I'll get the knack for blending audio recorded in different locations so that it's seamless to my ear. That day is not today! But I loved Eurydice ASMR's performance on this in spite of those technical difficulties, so I enco...
2023-03-07 02:30:00 +0000 UTC View PostEarly access time! This is due out on youtube March 8.
A curious shop has appeared in your town overnight. The only thing stranger than the collection of items on offer is the shopkeeper, a soft spoken creature with a sinister air. She's got what you need...even if you don't know it yet. 2023-03-07 00:14:50 +0000 UTC View Post
I am SO sorry there wasn't an official Request/Suggest post in February. It plum slipped my mind. That won't happen again. (I hope!)
Anyway, it’s time for our monthly patron-only request/suggestion post! I may have found some possible scripts for some of these, which is pretty nifty! Now I just have to find a place for them in the schedule.
Remember: you can leave a request/sugges...
2023-03-01 18:46:29 +0000 UTC View PostWelcome to our monthly chit-chat and recommendation post, a nifty little space to update each other on what we've been doing lately and all the things we’ve enjoyed during the month! I'm sorry this one is a few hours late; I accidentally crashed on my couch last night with a book in my lap, and managed to Rip Van Winkle my way through the entire night.
My February was busy, online and o...

2023-02-28 22:00:48 +0000 UTC View PostHello, Patrons! We've officially reached the end of Febru-dere. It's been something of a clusterfuck behind the scenes, as you already know, but we made it! Now I get to lazily rest on my laurels until the next big scheduled event in May.
Just kidding, I don't! I have a lot to do! For instance: this past weekend, the Vanilla Velvet Audio Patreon blew past its next patron goal. Which means...
2023-02-28 04:28:11 +0000 UTC View PostAs mentioned in the previous Februdere early access post, the poll to pick the finale audio of the event resulted in a tie! So, just to be fair, patrons get both audios right away, while yout...
2023-02-26 17:39:44 +0000 UTC View PostTime for the final audio of the event!
I actually found myself in bit of a pickle last night when I settled in to record: the poll to pick the final audio of Februdere was tied! The Yander...
2023-02-26 13:57:09 +0000 UTC View PostThe penultimate audio of Februdere is here! First a word of warning: this gets a bit dark and ever so slightly gory! This is about 15 minutes of soft spoken audio, followed by 15 minutes of rain. For the best listening experience, I suggest turning your volume down until you can just barely hear the thunderstorm, but ultimately you do what you want. I'm not the boss of you!
Also, a discla...
2023-02-23 22:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostAnd now for the more nerve wracking part! This half starts a bit spicy, so I'm terrified the whole shebang will get demonetized, but hopefully a couple minutes of risque content is not too steamy in an hour long audio! We'll see what the youtube gods decree. Pray for me!

We have a first for the Vanilla Velvet Audio Patreon! A file so big it had to be split into two parts for early access. Patreon only allows audio files up to 512 MB and this sucker, which is comprised of six scripts, clocked in at 526.
It's a good thing I didn't go through with my initial plan of doing all fourteen scripts in the series, huh? Though I do intend to finish the whole thing e...
2023-02-21 19:31:25 +0000 UTC View PostHello, Patrons! It's time for your weekly update on what's going on over here at Chez Velvet. To sum up: everything happens so much. But I'm hanging in there!
Februdere is almost at its end! Three audios left, not counting the one that went live today. The event hasn't quite shaken out as I'd hoped, due to extenuating circumstances, but I'm honestly in shock it's (mostly) gone of...
2023-02-21 04:09:40 +0000 UTC View PostI'm bad at decisions, as you well know. The thumbnails below are possibilities for the upcoming Increasingly Disturbing Compliments from Your Yandere Girlfriend audio, due out either February 22 or 24. Which thumbnail do you prefer, Patrons? I will abide by the majority opinion.

2023-02-20 01:54:25 +0000 UTC View PostHello there, Patrons! I'm still sick but I did manage to record this weekend. 🎉 Hopefully the end result doesn't sound too snotty. Also, I'm sorry early access is a few hours late today; I feel terrible. It came down to editing or sleeping in this morning, and you can figure out which one won. ^^; This audio is due out tomorrow on Youtube.

2023-02-20 01:42:04 +0000 UTC View PostI come to you between bouts of chugging orange juice and chicken soup with early access again! Yaaaay. This audio is scheduled for February 17th, and there will be a second collab going up on my partner's channel a bit earlier! I'll be sure to add a link to that when it goes live. Enjoy!

Long story short, a collab that was planned for Februdere might not be finished in time. I had a set of backup scripts all ready to go in case collabs fell through (plus a spare from miscounting the scripts I planned for the event!) but now I have to decide which one will be part of Februdere instead!
So I leave that decision up to you, Patrons! Which standby yandere audio would you...
2023-02-13 23:56:25 +0000 UTC View PostHello, Patrons! Velvet here, coming to you live from a cozy blanket cocoon on my couch. I've caught a spring cold! Always super fun. I'm apparently very bad at dodging illness whenever the people around me catch something. Luckily I did a lot of recording over the past few days before the worst of it hit me! I can spend my recovery period editing between naps while my voice rests.
Anyway,...
2023-02-13 23:43:16 +0000 UTC View PostEarly access time again! This audio is due to go live on February 13th, and I think it's a good fit for a Valentine's Day adjacent audio.
Also I'll be back tomorrow, or perhaps the day after, with what should be the longest audio of the event, and perhaps a couple of backup audios. Maybe even another collab, if lines get to me in time. See you soon! For now, please enjoy: <...
2023-02-12 20:01:51 +0000 UTC View PostThe first collab of Februdere is here! I'm very excited to have finally taken the plunge on joining forces with another channel, as that sort of thing is always a bit nerve wracking for me. Yay! Editing this was a bit of challenge, I will admit. There were a lot of tweaks necessary to get the different tracks to sound like they were recorded in the same environment. Still. It's here! Finally! 2023-02-10 04:58:16 +0000 UTC View Post
Another early access audio for the pile! This one is due to go live tomorrow. Hopefully another couple will be out later tonight so I can breathe a little over the weekend. 🤞

2023-02-07 20:41:14 +0000 UTC View PostWell, okay, official-ish. ^^ The first half of the month is solid, the last half is more flexible for collabs.
Why yes, having only a nebulous schedule at this late juncture is making me break out in hives. Thank you for asking! But I'm trying to stay positive.

2023-02-06 17:50:09 +0000 UTC View PostYeesh, it has been a loooong few days, I tell you what. But I'm here! With early access, even! And I will be back tomorrow morning with a bunch more, unless my evening plans explode somehow, like the last couple of days did. Here's hoping it's smooth sailing tonight! 🤞 Without further ado...
