Everything finally begins to slow down...

Posted by BlazingDragon - June 5th, 2008


The last few weeks have been a wild ride, but things are starting to calm down once again. Ambient Evening was on the front page twice, recieved 44 reviews, about 3,200 listens, and was even used in a flash! That was simply astounding to find, and I really appreciate all of the comments and reviews! Flowing Waters also was on the front page one week, and got a decent number a positive comments. Actually, two of my songs were recently used in flash! :O Check out these great videos featuring my music. While your at it, go ahead and rate/review these flashes. I'm sure the authors won't be offended if you do so. :P

The Metaphor (A serious short with a thought provoking message. Very poetic!)

Go Slug! 1.6 (A funny/entertaining flash with a random ending! I mean literally, the ending may be one of two things chosen randomly. Super dramatic!!!)

Sadly though, things are slowing down and I am getting far fewer reviews. Whereas I was receiving several per DAY before, I now am getting maybe one or two every other day, and I have a feeling that will soon become an even smaller number. :( Ah well, what do you do about such things? The problem is that I am now bored to tears! Everything is dying down here, and I am stuck at home all summer with nothing to do. If anyone wants music written for anything in specific, PLEASE PM me! Or if you have any inspiring short stories or descriptions I can use to base a song on, I'd be honored. Really, I just need something to fulfill this seemingly unquenchable boredom.

Anyway, I'd just like to thank you all one more time for your support. Every time I read a review on my music, it makes my day. It really does. :) I take the time to respond to every review, and generally look at the reviewer's profile to watch any flashes or listen to any music they may have made. Or just to read their news posts and learn something about them. Seriously, you guys are like a second family, lol! :P I will be patiently awaiting any more reviews/comments, and will hopefully put it more music in due time.

You guys are awesome!

Not to worry. I am in the storyboarding process of the full reel animation with one of your songs in it :). Plus, I need to pm you in regards of something, which hopefully keep ya occupied... Maybe just maybe (if everything works out to plan), I may ask you to compose a music score for something in the near future. :)

I am really looking forward to this, because it seems you are putting a great deal of effort into your flash. Most of the work my music has been in has been short and seemed very unprofessional or just plain random. :P

I would love to compose for anything you need!

Your a cool guy! Its awesome to meet a fellow Christian and artist (although I don`t do music, I do movies) and stuff.
Hope things are going well. Booya!
You have awesome talent, maybe one day, I`ll get the chance to use your music in my movie! If I do then I`ll ask you of course and stuff, have a wonderful day.

Ah, I wish I had a talent for movie making/animating! It is something I think I would really enjoy. If you ever do use my music, I would really appreciate it! Any exposure I can get would be great. :P

When I get to college, I want to take courses in film scoring. Maybe you'll one day be a famous movie director and I will compose for your films. xD

Have a great day!

People are using your stuff in their flashes. That's a good sign! It's all about recognition, and that kind of thing will definitely help.

You'll get more reviews with time. Just don't stop submitting to the audio portal.

Thanks, I will definitely submit more music! I've been surprised by all the flashes that have used my music. One person recently sent me a PM and offered to pay me per track to score for a game! :O I was in shock at the idea of actually getting paid for music; it's a first for me! XD

Have an awesome day,
~Blaze
