[The Angry Part]: I swear, I'm trying not to lose my goddamn mind, but it's REALLY fucking difficult. I have said time and time again, MANY A TIME IN RESPONSE TO REVIEWS I GET, that I do NOT want to be associated with Geometry Dash IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM! I was expecting to still get reviews about the game after that, but it doesn't stop me from almost deleting all of my audio and uploading it somewhere else to make sure I do not have to deal with this anymore. It's so annoying! What's unfortunate is that I can't say reviews about the game are bad, because the same could be said about reviews that simply say 'cool'. Single word reviews are just as useless as reviews praising a level in GD and saying you're going to use a song in GD. My problems with such reviews are that I want to improve, but when I get reviews from people saying they're gonna use a song I wrote, or a remix I produced, in a video game, it's heartbreaking in a way, especially when there are people on this website that do really well with reviews and do genuinely help, but they are few and far between. I hate having to deal with it all the time. And I can't go through all my audio and remove the External API use because I have 170+ songs, which doesn't sound like much, but it takes a ridiculous amount of time to update all my audio like that, time I don't have.
[The Solemn Part]: Sorry, I just needed to vent a little. I've played the game, I know what it's like. It has turned countless great musicians into 'Geometry Dash Musicians', something I do not want to become. It's why I've become a secondary Xtrullor figure, in a lesser degree. I have aspirations, and having my music used in Geometry Dash specifically isn't one of them. I want to be in several games. I want to be known as a solo musician and a video game music composer. I do not want to be confined to one thing, or one title. I admit that I have done countless covers and remixes, I'm sure most of my music is covers, remixes or remasters of songs at this point, but I want to try harder to make original music. But it's hard, because whenever I create something I'm truly proud of that I poured my life and time into to make sure it's perfect, most of my followers are here largely for or because of my remixes of songs. And, that's my fault for doing so many remixes, I know, but it's fun to create your own spin on other people's music, I'm sure that's why they came into existence. I just need to try harder to make original music, and not spend so much time on remixes. And trust me, I have been. I have several projects in the works right now, none of which are remixes.
[What I Have Planned]: I have things planned out and here's what I have; I'm going to be taking a break from music and the internet as a whole for a couple of days. And note this means I will not be active on any of my accounts, but I will use the internet to entertain because I don't have anything outside of the internet to entertain. The only things I'm going to use the internet for are YouTube videos that have no controversy around them, my schooling (because I do online school), listening to music, and uploading one more video before I go on a break. Now, how long it will take, I'm not entirely sure, but once I come back with a fresh mind, I will release something original. Whatever it may be. But it will NOT be a remix, that's all I know. I also, as of writing this, have plans to release EVERY song I've made and uploaded here on my YouTube channel, one every week, set for Wednesday's at 2 P.M. Pacific Standard Time. There will be notifications from me every week. 170 Weeks of uploads, or thereabouts is going to be fun.
[Final Word]: So, I guess this is going to be it for now from me. Thanks to those who read and understood my word. I'll be back strong in about a weeks time.
Take care!
