Yeah, I made a new account and no, this isn't new; this was made somewhere in the middle of 2023 and too be honest probably during when my production skills peaked, my recent stuff don't sound properly mixed as it was (which I have an excuse because I have broken headphones and I still haven't gone out to buy some, so I'm relying on cheap speakers which doesn't really determine its final sound right).


So as for the track itself, this track is a remix of Waterflame's December Dance and I really love that song and I thought it was very underrated, so I wanted to make a remix or remake of the track with more orchestral instrumentation, which it sounded great but definitely also unfinished and unpolished when it comes to the composition itself; if you notice from the original track, there can be heard a chord section which doesn't appear in this remix, which wasn't intentional to leave out; at the time I was still training my ears and was trying to replicate tracks by ear, which I'll say I am better at now, but at the time, replicating chords is a biatch, so it was understandable for why I left it out, though I wish I can fix that. You'll also notice that during the last chords, I made my own melody and slipped into the chords, I think the melody is fine, even at the time I wasn't sure but I kept it in cause why not, but I just think the execution wasn't good, and the ending part of the melody was sort of rushed because when I was writing that bit, I had multiple ideas which I wrote done, then erased, then wrote something else, and although the ending is how it is now, I remembered an older idea which I started liking more than the one in this track, I don't know that is just my opinion, what do ya'll think?


Overall, its an alright remix, which as much as I tried to add, I still prefer the original in many ways and reasons, and I made this remix when we were moving into a house and I didn't have my desk with me so I basically set up my desk on the floor and created this remix and some more, as I mentioned earlier, the middle of 2023 and start of 2023 (January-July) were my peak production stage, but now I am more focused on composition and because I haven't bought any more headphones, plus me forgetting how to produce a little bit, the production in my newer tracks kind of lack justice, once I get more comfortable with myself and my compositional creativity, and a new pair of headphones, I bring the audio the good quality ya'll deserve.


About my older account (@GDoinks) I wish I can reupload my old stuff here but don't want to be copyrighted from the Newgrounds system due to my own work in a different account. For those who don't know, a little while ago, I broke my phone by dropping it and badly shattering the screen (no screen protector), for the first week it still worked, just sharp from the broken screen but a week later, my phone just started glitching completely and I cannot even do anything on it, making it unfunctional, and the worst part, that phone was the only device that held my email account, which held not only my older account but my original YouTube channel, and my FL Studio account (So every track needs to be done in a sitting or a whole day or else when I close the track, FL will ask me that I'll need to log back in to resume the track which I can't because it logged me out and it requires an email verification from my old email) and probably many more things I used my old account with like a Twitch, Steam, and Discord account. As exaggerated as it sound, this practically changed my life and yes, it is all my fault for not logging the old account into other devices other than the broken phone; but hey, we gotta learn from our mistakes so I'll make sure it won't happen again, such as better phone protection, setting up my Google/Email account on my computer, and to overall be careful with my phone and not trip and drop phone again.
