20 GlitchxCity - Music Producer & Pokémon Content Creator

#6Pokemon1LifeStory

You've heard her music - now hear her story! For the 20th episode of Chazingdra Chats, I have the honour of being joined by GlitchxCity, whose beloved Pokémon music remixes are ubiquitous - and it all started around the age of 13 when she sat down at a piano during a family reunion... Discover how Glitch got from there to here, via a fear of a very particular Gengar, the remix that made her name (it's not the one you think...), concerts conducted by the legendary Junichi Masuda - as well, of course, as the 6 Pokémon that are the most special to Glitch: her Dream Team that have been there for her every step of the way. With questions from the community like which Pokémon would she choose to write a signature track for and which of her remixes has been the most challenging to make, you do not want to miss the insights, wisdom - and laughs! - that GlitchxCity provides in abundance: come hang out and let us #MakeYourDayMerry!

Want to get to know Glitch even better? Then head to my Patreon (linked below) for her Rapidash Round: 15 minutes or so of bonus quickfire questions she hasn't prepared for - Which is GlitchxCity's favourite of all her Pokémon remixes? If she could play for any artist/band ever, which would it be? Who are her heroes? These and many more lie in store - let the merriment continue! https://www.patreon.com/Chazingdra

Notes:

- 'BDSP', as mentioned in the Community Questions section, stands for '(Pokémon) Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl', the Nintendo Switch 2021 remakes of the original Pokémon Diamond & Pearl Versions (released from 2006 for the Nintendo DS).

- Safari Week, as mentioned in the What's Next section, is an annual event where Pokémon Trainers try to find Shiny Pokémon in the Safari Zone area of certain games. Shiny Pokémon are incredibly rare differently-coloured variants, and in the Safari Zone Pokémon can run away from you, so the tension is high in Safari Week!
