    In October 2025 I transcribed and engraved 
    <a href="https://sordidpink.bandcamp.com/album/lun">Destiny Potato</a>'s 2014 album 
    <em>LUN</em> and printed off a songbook. This was purely for fun,
    because it is one of my favorite albums and didn't mind listening to it 100 times to
    learn all the songs, and I like 
    <glacius:link category="Music transcription">transcribing stuff</glacius:link>.
</p>
<p>
    I found some vaugely accurete TABs online for <em>Indifferent</em>, <em>Machine</em>, 
    <em>Love Song</em>, <em>Lunatic</em>, <em>Blue Sun</em>, <em>Lost Dream</em> and
    <em>Addict</em>. These varied in accuracy and quality, but they were generally good
    starting points. I transcribed all of the vocals/piano parts myself, as well as the
    rest of the songs.
</p>
<p>
    I also transcribed the remastered version of
    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSF_qR1UP5I">Dark Side of You</a>, which shares
    a lot of the lyrics from <em>Come Take a Picture</em>. I assume it didn't make the cut
    for the album because it's kind of a weird song.

    Similar to the 
    <glacius:link page="music/david-maxim-micic-bilo-i-and-ii-book">David Maxim Micic 
    book</glacius:link>, I used the following tools:
</p>
<ul>
    <li>Sibelius 6 on Windows 7</li>
    <li><code>pdfcpu</code> CLI utility</li>
    <li>Some custom scripts</li>
    <li>Inkspace</li>
    <li>Krita</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<p>
    The book was 104 pages. I used <a href="https://www.onpressbookprinting.com/">OnPress</a> 
    for printing, which seems to be the same as BookBaby which I previously, only much cheaper
    with slightly less hand-holding. It cost $170 to print five book, including tax/shipping.
