Hey friends,
It's been such a long time since I updated anything on Newgrounds. 7 years ago I was making the top ten lists of the audio page and began working on my iTunes album, while I romantized moving to California to start over somewhere else. A lot of things have happened since, and I'm grateful I had the motiviation from this community to push myself into a new direction with my life.
7 years have given me so many wins, challenges, mistakes and new experiences with people I never would of expected to meet or befriend. I released my album to the world, focused on building a solid career for my own stability, and married my best friend last May. None of this would of happened if I hadn't created my newgrounds account and started uploading my music. It was here that I started to figure out who I actually was, and all of you had a hand in helping me with your feedback and supportive messages throughout the years.
I've slowed down with music lately, and some of you have been regularly reminding me not to ever stop producing. I'm sad to say that while I haven't stopped writing, I won't be uploading anything to Newgrounds anymore. You can blame it on me getting older, but I don't feel like I'm a part of this community anymore and don't have the time I used to for participating in competitions or community projects. I also, frankly, feel like Newgrounds is filled with content that just doesn't connect with me in the slightest bit anymore. Turning 31 does that to you I suppose.
For anyone who still wants some kind of connection to me, follow me on soundcloud.com/reasoner. I'll continue to post music there throughout the years, as long as they keep the domain up :P. For all of the fans here, THANK YOU for every single review, message and vote you gave to my songs. I am eternally grateful for the time I was given here.
