One of my favorite songs on this whole website!

A cover of Korschar's stunningly beautiful track "Darkest Dawn", check it out here!: https://soundcloud.com/korschar/darkest-dawn-darkest-dawn

I made this for the Maj7 Discord server Cover Ring event of autumn 2021 (it's basically like a secret santa, but instead of buying/receiving gifts, musicians make covers of each other's tracks & have no idea who is making who's until all is revealed in a climactic listen party stream!). Thanks to Jneen Collective and Hypergamestorytime for putting together such an incredibly fun and life-affirming event!!

I updated the track file to an updated mix on Friday 17th Jan 2023. If you want the download the old version, just DM me and I'll send it to you :). Look out for an official release later on, including to Bandcamp, Spotify and YouTube!

Brightest Dawn (cover of Korschar's Darkest Dawn)

happy new year everyone!

in 2021, i graduated in june with a BS in chemistry and soon after began working at my first full-time professional job. clearly, the past five years of undergrad put a strain on my will to continue the music i've been making since middle school, and keeping up with the online communities i've embraced pretty much since then as well.

i've known full-well that even during my years of pseudo-inactivity, music is something that i will return to time and time again as my passion, no matter how often it waxes and wanes.

being 23 now, change is a very frequent part of my life in pretty much all facets i can think of, which is as exciting as it is chaotic. this year, i hope to rely on music to ground me in my personal chaos, as it's been a comfort of mine that i've indulged in since the age of 11. even after straying away, coming back to OpenMPT never feels foreign.

this year i will devote more time to my music endeavors. working a 9-5 makes me realize how valuable my time is; how i need to really block out time to sit down and create amid balancing my work life, social life, and sleep. it's been a challenge so far, but still very manageable, and fun! it's quite rewarding to have it all feel adequately balanced.

new years is probably my favorite holiday, for symbolizing a fresh start which encourages change. the identity of a musician is something i've shied away from in recent years, and i aim to change that this year. so let me hold myself accountable in this statement, and please enjoy this little tune :-) i think i doodled up the main melody for this song sometime in like 2019, so it's been a long time coming!!! (i think i actually started truly composing a song out of it in december though :P)

thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. every little snippet i've posted on twitter, and occasional OHC upload over the past period of general inactivity has been met with excitement and anticipation for more music to come. it truly touches me to see it, and it only motivates me to keep on at it.

I don't usually put descriptions on my songs anymore but this one is an exception.

The cover art of this beat tape actually comes from art pieces I made during primary school. I came across them when I was clearing out some old things that were taking too much space and I found my end-of-the-year report cards. Each of them said that I was already a creative child with attention to detail and that my art skills had a lot of potential, with the same thing for music. I find it fascinating that my teachers already saw something in me even though I don't remember a single thing, and I probably only gained true sentience at around 11 years old.

I'm now finishing university and seeing how far I've come as a visual creative, audial creative, and as a person never ceases to humble me. Thank you all for everything.

Red&Green - Tall Buildings

Entry for VGMusic's Sample Pack Contest IX (placed 11th out of 71 songs).
https://samplepackcontest.bandcamp.com/album/sample-pack-contest-ix

My first song after...a 6-7 year hiatus of barely making music (compared to previous years anyway). Regrettably the song is out of tune by almost half a semitone, and it was something I didn't pay attention to until others noticed it! Still, enjoy the detuned undead funkiness. :)
