Update (03/02/2025):

I'll not come back; the decision I took is forever. Sometimes I log back in this account only to have a look around at what I did in the past.

Why did I quit? A lot of stuff. I can yap and yap for hours about what things did make me feel bad with this music shit, but the main reason was when I got hacked in 2022. I know you're not supposed to make music to make numbers and all that stuff, but I lost a lot of things, "fans," contacts, friends, and all those little things that I will never get back again, like the Instagram stories of people playing my music or all my growth in between the years on this project. Even so, after I got hacked, everything I did for growing in this shit, all my effort, went down to nothing, and if I wanted to stay on this literally, I'd have to start "from zero" because I'd have to make all my socials again. (Except for this account).

Funnybone set a ray of hope for me, but it shut down in a couple of months. Hopefully, they get their ass to work again, 'cause I don't know if they'd ever noticed, but Funnybone was moving people, and if they at that time had still been uploading music, everything would be different. Check your crewmates; there are a lot of people from Funnybone who are so underrated that it makes me angry (but yet, "they're from the crew").

In 2023 I started studying "Electronics technician" in uni, and that did make me start thinking about finishing this project. It really took all my time, but I did make it! Now I'm an electronics tech, but at this cost.

Now (February 3, 2025), I did take another path. I'm recording some post-hardcore/shoegaze demos in Spanish on another account, just making music for myself without stressing about entertaining an audience, and it feels better; it's better for me and my mental health. And I'm expressing so much more than I did in this music that I like it better than this; to be real, I liked to make riddim because of two things:

1.- 'Cause I used to like riddim a lot.
2.- 'Cause for me it was like a quest to figure out how to make new synths and patterns, and that was funny for me.

But now, as I said, I'm not going back. This was a chapter in my life that gave me everything: joy, sadness, entertainment, growth (as a person), things to learn, and great friendships at that time.

With the warmth of my tired heart, if you read all of this, I have something to tell you: I love you, and thanks for the time spent reading this or listening to my music. It makes me feel good to know that there, in some city, kilometers away from mine, there's someone who listens to what I did in the past and likes it, or someone in the same situation whose track of mine did inspire him or her to make a track. People playing my music like Gramgeene did with "Spiral Vortex" in Hungary, Monho playing "Bad Trip" in the USA, and all those people who I didn't notice who did play some of my tracks but did it, you all make me feel amazing, and I love you all for real 🖤.

Keep chasing your dreams; don't be like me, who gave up; sometimes big prizes come after big blows.

~ Peace!
