5 Years since last journal.
I hate to see that the last person I really used to care for here, is now gone. Deactivated accounts and dead accounts. I knew so many people here over the years, great people!
I salute you all I once knew and cherished. You helped me become who I am in terms of both photography and the time I had with music.
Thanks for all the comments, features, favorites, chats. Where ever you are, I wish you the best of luck with your lives and hope you are thriving with what might occupy you for the moment.
I've often though about deactivating my account, but for what purpose. Its a way to connect with other people still, and who knows, maybe some of my old friends rediscover me and drop a comment.
Judging by how often I post journals, this might look like its my last here.
Cheers
Xav~

Majora's Mask - Final Hours
1 min read
Ahoy me hearties!
I'm making a compilation of scenes from the last night in Majoras Mask and they will be serving as background material for the soundtrack on youtube. What I need is some suggestions for scenes and characters I should use. I already have a few like Kafei, Anju, Romani & Cremia. It doesn't necessarily have to fit the final moments since I can tweak some things. But what is some of your favorite Majora moments, some of the people you interact with, what made you sad or uneasy, honorable mentions?
The reason I ask is because the game has a ton of people and I have no chance remembering all the characters I should record by myself.
To all who help there will be links to your DA frontpage together with the video.
Cheers!

Been a while since I made a journal so I'll have make a new one.
For you who watch me for music its sure been a while, but there are reasons for it;
Unlike before were I spat out tracks all the time, I want to at least TRY to give them the initial quality they deserve.
Instead of spitting out re-wamped versions over and over, I might just have minor issues I need to fix that won't needs its own release.
Aside from the personal stand the other reason for this is that I've managed to hand a deal to release an album on Spotify. It NEEDS to be good for the tracks to be accepted and these tracks can't be changed for over 6 months once they are submitted.
I've also been noted by Youtube and I've entered a partnership, I'm not obligated to spit out videos all the time and my content will be spread faster via suggestions and the frontpage on youtube. How much this will impact my content I've not yet seen as these deals are less then a week old. Everything is also set as non-profit, I will just gain more publicity and have my work spread.
So a question for you guys, are there any tracks you would like to have on Spotify? Be tracks I've finished before or some I've not done or completed. You've got a chance to have a saying in this.
How are you guys holding up? A busy time? Exams? Work? Personal?
Have a merry christmas and a happy new year!
Cheers

A lot of WIPs heading up tonight(music)

As well as some I can finally consider to be finished(for sure), unless theres something that is pointed out that SHOULD be fixed or tweaked.
It will be well over 12 tracks, a breath of fresh air from "Hyrule Field" I assume. Some are older tracks you've heard before that have come to a close, some are reposts not yet tweaked and reworked.
Some are new and some are raw renders without any additional tweaks with filters, compressors etc...
Its just to give you an idea of what I'm up to, and hopefully to get feedback on directions I'm taking on the tracks.
Some of the tracks I've added an artificial noise to, giving it "A Touch of Realism". I've decided not to use it on every track to allow you to consider if you like it or not.
The noise will be a hiss recording from a concert hall, keyclicks, cracking chairs, clothing and other MINOR noises. Let me know what you think of this direction.
I'll hopefully have it ready in a few hours.
Cheers!

I just wanna get rid of the other journal from my front page as it no longer has any relevance.
On a random note I just queued a download for 400 RAR archives combined @ around 200 gigs. The content is generally just sound, but this should be great stuff and could boost the outcome of current projects and perhaps old ones as well.
Hopefully done by tomorrow morning!
EDIT::::
FIRST BATCH SOUNDS AWEEEEESOOOOOOOOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
