An interesting thing about the internet

General
One interesting thing about the internet is getting to be able to interact with artists and creatives you admire. In my case, I've gotten to have nice exchanges with certain video game soundtrack composers.
Grant Kirkhope once responded to a comment of mine on a video of himself dancing to Banjo Kazooie music, saying he was glad he was able to brighten my day with his dance. 😊
When I was posting the soundtrack for Xbox game Lucidity on my Youtube, the composer Jesse Harlin himself reached out to me and helped me get all the track titles right!
Most recently, I've had an odd one - I ordered a copy of the Quake 3 album "Arena Noize" from Sonic Mayhem's website. Some timing and postal issues have been delaying the arrival of the CD, but the bright side of this was the Sascha Dikiciyan himself (a composer for Quake 2 and 3 along many other games) e-mailed me and has been helping me get the issues sorted out. Was not expecting such an honor, that was cool. 😅

Not everyone on the Internet is a jerk or a troll. Treasure moments like those. :)
