I want to thank each and every single one of you for making me reach this milestone

The tens and hundreds that join in to listen to my music, whether on YouTube, SoundCloud, Newgrounds, Spotify

It truly warms my heart to see so many people tune in to my music, and I always get excited with every comment I receive from this community I've been building for years

There are a small group of people that I'd want to thank for making music production possible, for teaching me, for inspiring me, and for helping me whether intentional or not:

🟣 Ill make a treat for y'all soon, with opening my Gumroad and Patreon for exclusive content and breakdown

Expect a Wavetable and Preset Pack sometime soon

🔵 I haven't forgotten about the track breakdowns from a few posts ago, so those will be Live on YouTube and they'll be up for a short time until they'll get removed and reposted on Patreon/Gumroad viewing

🔴 I will also start doing private 1hour sessions if you want 1-on-1 sessions with me Live on Discord, answering any questions or help you need

Hi everyone and I hope y'all are having a fantastic start to your week

I will be going on vacation for the entirety of July

which means that the final release for RtE would take place before July or After July

I definitely want to take my time for the releases as I've been trying to get them to be released every month

So I am working on the tracks between Rampage and Elysium at the same time

It might not be the best idea in the world but I want to tie everything together in a cohesive narrative

As for the July situation, I'm contemplating on whether to bring my whole setup to my vacation spot to finish the final track at the end of july

or to make the penultimate and final release to take place at June and have july be the global streaming month

Ill get to that road whenever I reach it

(p.s I am soooo close to reaching 200 followers on SoundCloud, so if y'all haven't followed me there yet, please do :D

)

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY CRAP

THIS IS INSANE. IF BY THE TIME "Return to Elysium" GOES ON ALL PLATFORMS WHEN I HIT 1K, ILL DO A CELEBRATION. MAYBE THE STREAMING OF RoE MIGHT THE CELEBRATION IDKDFLDF;[;3

thank you all. i'd really appreciate if if you can share your favorite songs to friends or family if you know they'll enjoy a song

"Paradise Lost" marks the transition between the first and second half of "Return to Elysium"

Current Setlist (7/15):

1. Genesis
2. Khaos and Kreation
3. Birth of Gaia
4. Shattered Arrival
5. Foretold Prophecy
6. Creation of God (VIP)
7. Paradise Lost

3 years ago I created the original version of "Creation of God" during Covid.

It was my time using BBC Orchestra Discover and I created a dubstep track with the orchestra. I was proud of it for a long time as it was one of my favorite self made melodies I have done. But as my mixing skills have increased, I formed a dislike of some mistakes I did within the track and have been waiting for the correct time to give the track justice.

So for my 15 song album, I decided to remake it with my current skills and style to create a version of the track that still stays true to the original while becoming its own separate thing.

Tomorrow, Creation of God (VIP) will be released at 10 am est on Youtube, Soundcloud and Newgrounds.

(next two tracks after Creation of God (VIP) will have a shorter span of time between releases, so the next track may be released mid September and the one after maybe late September or early October)
