Heyo,
I thought the end of the year would be a great opportunity to run down just how much has happened this year!
I'm gonna be honest, some *BAD, BAD* stuff has occurred this year, which I'm not keen on talking about, so I'm just gonna limit it to the musical department lol
75 followers on NG, that's awesome!!!
I managed to get FrontPaged 10+ times, which is an insane number (even on paper!)
I collaborated with a lot of great composers I didn't know beforehand!
I published an actual cinematic EP I'm extremely proud of!
I managed to sold like 1 or 2 copies of the only song I have on BandCamp, which is infinitely more than I expected 🔥
I probably lost a 400$+ gig unironically because of AI :)
I played the drums/piano a lot, so that's always good.
I have composed music for the first videogame projects I've ever been a part of!!
I got 850+ followers on Bsky, by far the most unexpected thing out of all of these lol
I went to a Tigran Hamasyan concert with my dad and to a Queens Of The Stone Age concert with a friend: that's the most concerts I ever attended in a year.
I have composed an OST for a WIP animation coming soon on NG!
...and I got a turntable :)
This was my most competitive year online *ever*, so let's see how I placed overall:
NGMT: 1st PLACE!!
AIM: 4th/9th PLACE!!
NGADM: GROUP STAGE!!
BOTB: JUDGE!!
NGBS: JUDGE!!
Not bad.
Thanks to everyone I've had the chance to know this year, both thanks to Discord and NG events! Again, this wasn't the brightest year because of what I omitted, but your support for what I post has always been appreciated, and it always will be! :)

got a turntable for myself aswell late this year, found a Salora 6000A from an auction in excellent condition which includes Dual 1237, a proper beast from the late 70s :p
