Hi everyone, I'm glad you stopped by to read a random music man's retrospect on a very crazy year that has just gone by. I will begin by saying this: I feel like 2023, although a great step-up from the previous year of 2022, could have had more going on, or at least in my opinion. Looking back, not much actually happened this year at all. However, I cannot really say the same thing for how I improved musically speaking, and I don't think I am exaggerating when I say that 2023 has been my best year of music by a landslide. Let's list all of the reasons why I think this:
- This year was when I made my current Top 1 and Top 2 most listened tracks of all time, 'Ensom' and 'Adamance' respectively, which is an enormous achievement.
- I have managed to participate in two contests this year: the 2023 Newgrounds Underdogs Audio Contest (NGUAC), and my great NG friend of mine's contest, the "Walk Away Remix Contest", which I won by a mere 6 points!
- My best songs of all time in terms of quality were produced this year, with those being (in my personal opinion) 'Ensom' and 'Joyride', which also happen to have taken the longest for me to make.
I am so glad I was able to reach the ears of over 15k listeners this year not including songs from other years, and I am very happy I was able to improve musically speaking thank to all of you guys' support in this community. And with that being said, I wish everyone a happy and exciting new year going forward.
