Likes to Write Music

My original music


In case anyone ever wondered why, I'd like to explain the main reasons I write so much music, making it difficult for people to find a song they might like (this is not a reason :P).

  • Writing music is a hobby, and I compare it to putting together puzzles. I like doing puzzles, so I like to write all kinds of music to see what I can create.

  • I want to create music for anyone and everyone, including myself of course. This is why I wrote over 150 songs for individuals between Songs for Gamers and ANTHEMS projects.

  • I want to leave as much of a legacy behind for when I die. It may not be preserved (Youtube could delete it all, and Bandcamp could as well) so grab/enjoy it while you can.

As much as I'd like some more listeners, the idea of potentially going viral and getting hundreds or even thousands of listeners scares me. I haven't figured out the amount of listeners that would make me happy. But it may not be so much about listeners, and more about commenters. I love hearing from people talk about my music, even if they say it's horrible :p

Ultimately I'm doing it because I think it's an amazing thing to do with my gift. I'm happy to see people enjoying it.

Oh yeah, the existial bit you said is something I'm trying to channel to help me make games. In my case not so much about "leaving a legacy" and more like "oh shit if I die today I would be super pissed that I never made games like I wanted to" and "I'm 34, I'm already past my prime but if I keep waiting I'll never achieve anything so I might as well start doing shit today"

I really didn't expect this from you, what a pleasant surprise!

What I meant is that I feel like I had a lot more enery about 10 years ago and I had more free time. That said, my ADHD was completely untreated (well it still is tbh), so energy without being able to direct it is as good as shit haha.

Thank you! I wanna make a ton of tiny games. Half baked incomplete prototypes, ugly unpolished stuff, janky crap, I think being able to constantly output bad quality games would really make me feel better about my creative output.

Once again, I know I've been super distant, but just wanted to reiterate that you are near and dear to my heart, ok?
