Halloween Poll 2018

Starting off with an apology, I’ve been sick the last week and wasn’t motivated at all to work on any projects. Even now that it’s gotten a bit better, I’m still fighting with my motivation. I did think of some new ideas for mixes, but executing those ideas is a different story…

Aside from that, it’s about time to get back into the spirit of things. It’s October, and this year’s Halloween mix is getting closer. In case you didn’t know, there was a voting on my YouTube channel, asking you what theme this year’s Halloween mix should have. That voting ended today, so here are the results:

Surprisingly, Vampires lost to Demons and Zombies didn’t stand a chance. So this year’s theme is gonna be Night of the Demon. I gathered some ideas already, got some ideas from your comments as well, but all I can say for sure is: expect some Shin Megami Tensei in that mix. I want to make a dedicated mix for vampires at some point, so despite that one could argue that a vampire could be classified as a demon, I don’t really want to include them in this mix specifically.

While “demon” is a classification that can easily be stretched, it’s also possible that I might include some tunes that have absolutely nothing to do with it. That’s almost a tradition by now anyway.

To sum it up: Sorry that there’s no song today, but don’t worry: it’s time for this year’s Halloween Mix soon!

VG Arch Rivals Vol. 4 Announcement

So I’ve been trying to work on another True Disciple song, switching up some of the themes originally included, BUT it didn’t quite work out in the end. Seeing as the expectations for such songs are also really high, I don’t want to risk giving you anything mediocre.

Instead, I’ll announce the results of the voting today. In case you forgot, we had a voting going on on YouTube which project I should do this year, either the next installment of VG Arch Rivals or another Sounds Alike. The results are pretty clear, as you can see:

Now that we have the results, why wait? If all goes according to plan, we’ll start with the first song of VG Arch Rivals Vol. 4 next Sunday. I hope to see you then!

Music and suggestions page update

Some of you might have noticed it already, but I haven’t found the time/motivation to write a post about it yet. The Music page and the Suggestions page got a huge update last weekend. So let’s dive right into it:

Music page

This is something I wanted to do for a while now. Previously, it was quite a mess. A main page with links to sub-pages related to franchises. A pain to maintain. So I used up last weekend (the WHOLE WEEKEND) to make a legit Music page with ALL (!) songs made so far sorted by release year (excluding OST, which still have their own page, but including album projects). There you can listen to and download the tracks directly. Icons and short descriptions show you what franchises and themes you can expect in the song. I hope you give the page a visit and find some cool songs you didn’t know about yet.

Let me give you a little warning though: Since there is so much stuff on that page, it might take a while to load. I tried to make navigating easier by adding a table of contents at the top of the page, I hope this will help a bit. (I actually added that to other big pages like the OST page and the Album Projects page as well).

Happy browsing!

Suggestions page

Some of you posted comments on that page before, but that didn’t really help me very much, as I didn’t even get notified if someone comments. Also, I primarily wanted to see what most of you would be interested in. So now we try a different approach. By now you should already know how polls work, so the new Suggestions page basically features a never-ending poll where you can vote for other people’s suggestions or throw your own idea into the ring, which other people can then vote for.

You can suggest a single theme or a combination, but you can only vote once, so think carefully. After a suggestions reaches a significantly high amount of votes, there’s a high chance it will be turned into a song. After that happened, the suggestion will be removed from the list and all who voted for it regain their right to vote…granted I will be able to do that of course without resetting the whole thing.

Happy voting!

Video

As usual we have a video to go along with this post, because I noticed that without a video, all my efforts will remain unnoticed. Since you already know more than the video says, I suggest heading to those pages and find out for yourself now.

I started working on Ultimate Elemental Being, the final Elemental Disciple mix including all 8 elements. This will likely be the next upload, although I might throw one or two OST Focus videos in-between. I’ll try to finish the song until next Sunday, but since this is such a big mix, I’m not sure if I can make it. I’ll try my best though.
