To the faithful few who watch and listen to my music
14 years ago
...thank you.
I'm a speck in the fandom, and I feel like I'm overlooked, or I can't inspire people with my music. I don't generate near the amount of buzz as other artists who have been around much longer than me. The only exposure I ever get is the tiny window at the bottom of FA when my icon is down there. I know that its an exposure issue other than a talent issue why my music isnt as popular as others, but at times I let it get to me, and I start wondering if I have any compositional talent at all.
I don't compose in a particularly popular style for the fandom (orchestra/game music as opposed to Trance/Techno/Parody) and the composers who ARE established in the orchestral genre are flat out ridiculously amazing. I've always been intimidated by them. I remember back when I'd finished the Time project, and I was trying to contact some of them to see if they would listen to some of my music and give me some pointers. Out of like the 15 I contacted, only one wrote me back. Two said they would listen and get back to me, and never talked to me again. That was a bit heartbreaking.
With all the venting aside, Words cannot express how much I truly appreciate you guys who've stuck by and taken the time to listen to what I create; to give my music a CHANCE. If it weren't for you guys, I probably would have given up a long time ago. The fact that you guys are still listening after all this time tells me I've got atleast a LITTLE something going on here that's worth continuing.
Thank you, from the bottom of everything. I hope this next project completely blows you and I away. :) I'll try my best.

So if anything, what I'm saying, is that your music is full of inspiration and heart -- and honestly your stuff kind of gave me the drive and inspiration to categorize my own stuff and actually create something for once. Before your stuff I kind've just... created, but I had no focus at all.
So.. thank you!
I hope that one day you find your music reaches many more people than it does today.
I like your music though. It's refreshing, has a high quality to it, and is often rather uplifting. You needn't worry about your compositional ability; your work is original and interesting, and it'll progress of it's own accord.
As a side note, I'll agree another thing mentioned: Techno/trance/house/whatever it wants to be called type music makes me angry; I don't understand the appeal of it , so I won't go any further into the many criticisms I have of what appears to be the entire genre. Point is, enjoyment of it seems to encompass a reasonably sized section of the community, and I don't understand it at all, so I guess I will probably never capture that audience.
Anyway, I do love to hear your new pieces when they come out. XD
Thank you for thanking me?
You know I've been listening to you for a while now, and I quietly sit back and enjoy it, as do, I'm sure many others. So keep up the good work, keep your muzzle up and keep plucking and plonking away. ^.^
You mean from the bottom of your...
...ears, right?
Seriously, though, you should talk to some of the folks that do variety show skits, and see if anyone might be able to come up with a concept for a video game skit, that your music could be used in.
Ya know your not the only musician who strives to be noticed for his/her musical talents, there are plenty more on FA who are in the same pickle but its the patient ones who prevail in the very end, for little by little baby step by baby step, your works WILL be noticed and the more people will seek out your works as time goes on. Its an uphill battle but in the field of music and with so much talent around, its a waiting game and a test of willpower at best and not everyone will make it to the top, but if you BELIEVE in yourself and your abilities and keep striving to reach that lofty goal it WILL happen but it takes a LOT of hard work and a lot of patience to reach the top. Last piece of advice I give...
"To be patient and not want...shall beget what you desire with time but only if you learn to wait and believe"

Anyways, back on the original topic. I LOVE your music. I actually will sleep to some of it, Especially that Rest Your Soul one. It's a wonderful thing you do here, and if I could, I'd get the world to watch yah :3
Furry X60 foreverrrrr!
