reminiscent of that early 2010s death grips-adjacent sound. you see that shit picking back up in modern days with machine girl and digital hardcore as a movement. lovely<3
thank u for the follow btw
here is my entry to the Video Game Music Challenge III. as you might have been able to tell, this song has nothing to do with the original intent neither the organizers or me had when i posted my WIP. indeed, we all expected something experimental, slow, and cinematic, and here i am making a beat with a jersey kick. why? i'll tell you (spoilers: it boils down to "i can't focus well and i'm not taking any of this seriously. I'm just having fun"):
i am not good at these things. i've participated in a handful of challenges like this an i NEVER hit the mark at all. i am merely too fluid in spirit to be chained down to such restrictions (my dumbass cannot lock in for shit so i always end up making fuck all that has nothing to do with what i planned on making at the start).
Rather than lamenting over it, i simply decided to go along with it and finish the track however way it wanted to come out. if it wanted to be dark and moody, it would have came out that way, but it didn't, and i'm fine with it. it's not professional sounding and no one will listen to it more than maybe twice, and is that such a bad thing? is it really so bad to make something simply for the joy of making it rather than for some arbitrary price or some number to go up?
i don't have a way to get money out of any of the things i upload onto the web, and frankly, i prefer it that way. i make what i make because i am who am i am and there should be no other logic behind my creations. i do stuff, profit or fame be damned. i love it when i log in and see the little ratings and the views go up, but as time has gone by, i'm more attached to the nice reviews people sometimes leave in my works, and i've learned to ignore everything else, because honestly? it's fine. it's fine if you don't like what i make or if you have nothing fun to say. this is all just little lights on a screen written by bored people looking for a fun time. i have a fun time making stuff and looking at it once i'm done before i get bored and do it all over again.
i don't need to conform to a standard or some metric because if i did, i wouldn't do the things the same way i do them right now. i will never be the face of newgrounds, and i'm glad - there are far more talented people in this platform that would get more out of being featured and being famous that i'd ever get out of it. i am an artist, not a business man or a celebrity, and i'm only an artist because it's faster to type than "i do stuff for the hell of it".
So yeah, this song completely missed the mark on what it was meant to be, and i don't mind. i like it better this way and i'm overjoyed i get to share a platform with other fun-loving creators. i like it here and i like a lot of the people in newgrounds, and i think that's all that matters in the end. to make stuff and to have fun while doing it.
so there, i hope you enjoy this song as much as i did rushing this out at the last minute only for it to morph into a bouncy little tune.

thanks. i'm actually a rather big fan of gripping my shit until it dies so i think that might have inadvertently been influence on me and on this track. And now that i think about it, i actually listen to "hacker" a lot on the way home from school, so that might have also played a role without realizing it. anyways, thanks for the kind words.
woah this is really cool
thanks. i pretty much threw every trick i could remember off the top off my head into a single song and this is what came out
