After a year and two months of composing music here on Newgrounds, I've had it beat into me that Newgrounds was an awful place to submit music. Even the top musicians here acknowledge it, and only out of pure luck have they gotten to the top. With my last release "exploring the cavern of ice", I had gotten over one hundred listens over night. Four point five out of five, and 3 great reviews. When I got from school today, I had gotten zero-bombed, never to rise again. I could have gotten my moment in the spotlight of top five, if I had had good enough luck to avoid zero-bombing.

Over the course of the last month or two, I have been making connections to established composers and musicians. It's no longer necessary that I submit my tracks through the creative commons, because my work is getting to the point where it could be sold for profit.

As much as I would like to help out with creative commons music, Newgrounds takes my hard work and throws it down the tubes. I still have all my Reason patches in my profile, which counts for something I'm sure. I'll still be participating in the forums and PM system, but I can't submit my tracks here anymore. Sorry to the amount of people who enjoyed my work, and thanks to the people via BBS who helped me with technical issues. I'll still be submitting demos and tracks that I don't want to release.
