HELLO ALL

Posted by API Nov. 29, 2008 @ 9:07 PM EST

This is a message to all my listeners/fans/stalkers of this wonderful website.

DISCLAIMER: FEEL FREE TO USE ANY AND ALL OF MY MUSIC FROM NEWGROUNDS IN YOUR PROJECTS. I DO NOT NEED A PM FIRST. I HAD 87 UNREAD MESSAGES ASKING TO USE A TRACK OF MINE. I ASSURE YOU IT IS OK AS EVERY TRACK ON NEWGROUNDS IS PUBLIC DOMAIN.

As you may have noticed, I'm not very active on this website anymore and have not submitted anything for well over a year.

I have just moved onto different things... and yes, I still make music. I just don't submit it here anymore. In fact, any musician here who takes himself seriously or plans to in the future... my advice would be to start submitting your work elsewhere and browsing production forums. I found that there weren't many here who offered legitimate production knowledge. While there are certainly a few who know parallel compression from side-chaining, I simply did not find this place very helpful.

Now, this isn't to insult the community here. It's awesome to see a really tight knit group of young producers... but I encourage every last one of you to look outside of the website for some musical influence.

I still love Newgrounds for what it is, and it appears to be going strong... I am just making an appearance to offer you all some advice which really helped me in the long run.

Geier

I know what you mean, sometimes it is nice to take a break and look elsewhere for a change, that's why I sleep it off. Thx for the advice G.

I don't think anyone will be insulted by this. In fact, it's a smart idea, to improve your own skills. Then you can come back and teach your teachers. Who knows.

WOw, i thought your music her on NG was great. I thought that was the best music ever untill i heard the music on your myspace! It's amazing!

I used one of your tunes in a simple arcade game of mine: http://www.fantasyjam.net/flash/games /fjball

It's on NG, too, but I rather promote my own site. Ha.

I luff you. You speak words that I wish everyone else on the Audio Portal could understand -- you don't really get too far with Newgrounds as your primary learning source.


Mar. 29, 2009 | 11:00 AM RyeGuyHead says:

What other websites are you talking about? I was thinking about joining sonic sounds (or something like that) site that asks for original audio for comercial use only. Some of its work for hire, in other cases you get to keep the license...

Any words of wisdom?


May. 25, 2009 | 10:04 PM Kalapsia says:

What web sites have you moved on to? I'm planning on leaving NG as well not because i'm reaching a new level but im actually looking for more criticism on my music. anyways hope to hear a reply soon... :D

Jul. 28, 2009 | 6:17 AM FurryDemon says:

Okay, cool.
Your music could be somewhere big some day maybe, a video game possibly?
Hopefully you can still drop here once in awhile at least.


Oct. 31, 2009 | 10:00 PM volt-light says:

Ah, I miss you dude. Your myspace account doesn't work any more either?


Dec. 1, 2009 | 4:59 PM AznPB says:

Hah! Still going strong huh? I'd like to hear some of your newer stuff as well. :D Maybe you'd like to help out in a collab of mine? I'm the character artist and your skills would be appreciated. :D

Skype me: festivalofthedamned
