Dude its 2024 o'clock, isn't that crazy? It's been a year and a 5th, and a fuck ton has happened to me on and offline, so I'd like to take a moment and reflect on that.
So, I almost fucking died in September. A relative almost put a bullet through my brain so that fucking sucked. That was probably a third of the reason why I hadn't been really active from late September to like, late October. It fucked with me for quite a bit but I like to think that I'm doing good now.
I had some more technical problems than I would have liked. My internet was on the fritz for a little while, then out of nowhere it literally just stopped working. It helped a little bit with productivity but other than that it was really just a huge roadblock from actually doing anything worthwhile.
This is probably the funniest bad thing on this little post, I have a stalker that had been following me around at like school and shit so that's pretty awesome. This person's been on some spy vs. spy type shit. Like, this person is a grade A clown and it's really funny.
This year has been huge for growth and projects. One of the most recent examples of such a thing is Bird Tapper: Purple Platoon Panic which had really pushed my "creative limit" in a way that I cannot really put into words. While I'm thinking about birds and the action of tapping them, the Bird Tapper Series in general had really made me push the bar for what I'm able to do and it fucking sucks.
I had hosted quite a few collabs that brought some people together to create some great pieces of music. The most recent example of this is the Secret Santa that will be officially done and over with by the time this goes up. There were over 60 tracks on this playlist clocking in at over 1 hour and 30 minutes of music! Other collabs that were hosted were the Pico Day Collab and the Fall Collab. There was no summer collab, I guess the Pico Day Collab kinda took over and honestly it might just stay that way. IMO, I think that using Pico day as a celebration of the artists that fuel the site is much better than using it as a vehicle for some fandom type shit even though there are some really cool things that came out of it.
All of my pals have been especially important this year. It's been a real shitty one so the people that I "surrounded" myself with have been a real help to me.
Thank you guys for keeping me from going insane, god bless.
As we barrel into 2024, some projects are in the works as we speak!
Happy New Year God Bless $_$

The Music Secret Santa was an event that was started by Will in 2009 and he continued to do it until 2013. I decided to pick this back up 2 years ago, but it didn't really pan out. So ever since then, I decided to become more experienced in the field of planning these types of things as seen with some of my last planned events, and just do what works like I did last year.
If you are looking to join, then follow this link and fill out the sign-up form. SIGN-UPS ARE OPEN UNTIL DECEMBER 6TH! I will evaluate the sign-ups and add your info to a list of people just like last year. Who you get will be decided on the info that you put into your form. The sending of examples and such is just so I don't let someone in that'll make something that sounds like this. You will be notified if you are in if I give you an invite to my discord server. Once you are there, you will be given the role to go with it.

It's been a little while since I made a season themed album so here we go again. I am inviting all of you musicians to join the Collaborative Autumn Album!
The Collaborative Autumn Album is exactly what it sounds like. Make a song with a sort of fall theme! The fall "theme" seems to be all over the place with the overall comfortable feeling of the season mixed with all the Halloween stuff so as long as it falls under one of those two categories you should be all set to get as creative as possible.
From the moment that this post goes up, you are allowed to submit an application. The application process takes about 1-2 days so stay alert! The overall timespan will be from Today (September 27th) to October 29th. Please keep the application process in mind as I most likely won't look over any applications that are submitted after October 20th.
You can sign up right here! Remember that the application process is 1-2 days and applications after October 20th will most likely be Ignored. To be safe, apply within the first week or two of this post going up. ALSO, the application process WILL BE SELECTIVE IN WHO IS PICKED! If you were not selected, just know that it is for no other reason than the quality of your work! I am not shitting on your work, I mean, we've all been through it.

HEY HEY HEY! I'm back on my bullshit with another collab album. If you are unaware, I hosted a collab album not too long ago. This made me think about doing one now.
It's exactly what it sounds like. A collab album for Pico day 2023. The whole idea is less about it being a "Newgrounds collab" and more about supporting different kinds of artists and giving people exposure to them. That being said, people can make Newgrounds fan shit if that's what they want. The only thing that I really care about is that it sounds good.
If you are looking to join, all you need to do is click on this link. It'll take you to a google form where you can send in an application to join. Just like last time, if I deem your music to be good enough you will be given access to the server and all that good shit. There isn't a deadline to join but just be aware that YOU are responsible for actually finishing the song you want to make. If you fail to do this there is a chance you won't be allowed to join next year.

This year was huge for me. It helped me rekindle a love of music that was once smushed by family and music instructors. It's funny because my parents used to nag me about practicing piano and shit when I was like,12 and I just remember not liking music after that, but now some of the most supporting people are family and close friends. For a while, I was trying to be an artist but that did NOT work out. Like, at all. So, I tried music after like, 4-5 years. It obviously ended up working out because well, look at me now. I started out by making covers of fucking royalty free music, but I deleted those a long time ago. Anything that I deleted isn't "lost" per se, but it's on my old crusty laptop.
I did host a fair number of events this year (so like, 2)
The Earliest event that I had hosted this year was the NEWGROUNDS CREEPY PASTA COLLAB.
That started because SOMEONE got hacked and deleted the first ngp server so 90% of the jokes don't really hold up honestly. It was fun to work with other people to produce this.... thing, but it was more or less a product of the time (so march.)
The most recent event that I hosted was the MUSIC SECRET SANTA. As I write this post, I'm still banging my head against the wall, trying to come up with something. Everyone who participated as of now did an amazing job and I think you should go check them all out. There are some amazing, underrated musicians in the playlist.
I have worked with a very long list of people this year. I haven't had a bad experience so far. I want to just talk about the most important friends/collaborators that I met through projects.
I met @MigMoog, @Tiny, and @TappyWara through the first game that we had made together along with some other cool people. You can play that game HERE!!! These three clowns are honestly some of the most important people that I have met. Had I not met them, who fuckin knows where I would've gone.
@SomeApe and @RGPAnims were met through this monstrosity and this. These guys were also some of the most important people that I have met. These two got me on some really cool projects and for that, I'm very fuckin grateful.
And last but not least, @Frosty, @CommanderKuni, @Nohshy, @conundrym, @MrPakoMan, and @crf-sage are some of the funniest mfs I have met so far. These fuckers are always up to something and they're really cool.
I put out a CD. Shoutout to @MrPakoMan for making the CD art. You should really consider buying art from him.
I have a spotify. I don't post often but I usually post shit there to use as a sort of portfolio.
Thats kinda it lol. I don't have much else that I can talk about its all secret teehee.
All in all, this year was great for me. I love making shit for all of you sick bastards to hear and I hope that I can do this for much longer.
