Holy shit. I've been a member of Newgrounds for ten years now. When I joined, I was just a 13-year old little prick. Now, I'm a just a regular prick.

Since starting my time on Newgrounds, I have

- Graduated middle school (holy fuck)

- Bought my first guitar

- Started my first rock band

- Earned my black belt

- Got into college

- Started submitting to the Audio Portal

- Got an internship, getting credit on a short film, resulting in my own IMDB page (with my name misspelled, fuckers)

- Graduated college

- Started a career doing something that actually has to do with my degree

- Wrote a piece of music that I feel is one of my best and ambitious to date

- Wrote music for my first game

It's been a hell of a ride, NG. Life has been interesting for me. But I think I have NG to thank for exposing me to some really awesome games, talented musicians, incredible artists, and a strong sense of community over the internet (despite how weird y'all are). I'm really happy that I have quite a few fans now, and I have Newgrounds to thank for getting me off the ground. But I feel like I'm disappointing people by not releasing/writing enough music. I'm happy I did the video game covers, which helped me get my feet wet, but I think it's time I put stuff like that to rest. I mentioned in my interview with Asandir that I was doing a cover album of A Link to the Past, mostly sounding like this. Although it was a fun idea and I'm happy I started a project like that, I don't think I'll be finishing it. I need to spend some more time on original music. Maybe I'll polish some of it and release it incrementally on the portal.

I've got some interesting musical things in the works, and I can't wait to get the ball rolling on them and share it with y'all. For now though, you'll be hearing from me intermittently and some audio portal submissions inbetween. I hope to be more active and pump out a lot of music for your ear holes.

TL;DR: been on Newgrounds a long time, and I love y'all. Thanks for being cool.
