You shouldn't be the one thanking us, we should be the ones thanking you for all the deep and powerful music you have brought to Newgrounds over the years, and I for one am glad to see you back making music again.

Thank You.

The-Great-One

Id have to agree with The-Great-One, we should definitely be the ones thanking. You're a big reason I'm still an active member of Newgrounds. A few years back I listened to your and Maestro's music constantly, and if the music hadn't been there, I would have really had no other reason to go to Newgrounds, and would have given up on the site entirely.

Thankfully, you kept me there long enough to realize Newgrounds' many other benefits. :)

So I say to you sir: THANK YOU!

Well said but the true master is always the composer of those great music pieces and that's YOU! YOU ALONE :).
Making music is one thing but publishing it to other people who give decent reviews about your pieces is like gambling (I had the feeling it was) and based on how the people react you'll get encouraged to do more. The best reviews are from those who criticize your pieces positively and know what they're talking about ;).

About the newgrounds as a set-up... Due to the dramatic layout change of the Audio Portal it's easier for everyone to access the songs and the voting system is fair now. The old Audio Portal looked very unprofessional to me :/ but it worked somehow (for the "insiders" ^^).

Anyway I'll give you a big THANK YOU for your music because it's something I enjoy to hear :).

keep it up!

Yes, thank you Dan. And just remember, every one of those reviews for everyone of your songs means that the song meant enough for them to take out the time to tell you so, and remember, this number is well into the hundreds..hundreds of REAL people who think that what you do is great, THOUSANDS more that don't tell you, but download to forever enjoy your music. Thousands of REAL people, one thing I tend to forget sometimes is that each one of these people giving an input has their own lives, own thought processes, own values, yet all find love in music, and many in yours.

As for what you said about the true nature of newgrounds, I agree, and i found the site much more worthwhile then i had ever imagined, even *grimace* educational, if you will.

Anyway, it is good to know that I'm part of the driving force behind someone as well, even if a small one, all of us, REAL people, mean something to everyone else, and can lead to life changing events, everlasting memories, or even just a great time.

Thanks Dan,
~TheWisestMagi~

i thank you! You are the reason I still visit the audio portal. Your music is suberb. If I ever gain flash skills, I will use your music! Of course, my main interest is in making beautiful music like you...though it's impossible to actually surpass you...

well wudya know, its just another crazy canuck makin' xmas music :P

we wuv ya bro, plz keep em coming.

edmonton is a great place to b for xmas, though it can b so commercialized, i always wuv ditching calgary n fort mcmurray to spend some time there

as said by a lil boy i met in CA once, does canada have computers? (he was serious)

u give call us crazy canadian bastards a good name

you know we love ya man ;). I'll always be here to support you in whatever you do. All I can ask is for you to keep going forward!

i have a playlist of your stuff, just named "chill." your work is some of the greatest in this site, if not the best. youre one of those artists where you can select any song from your submission and you know its gonna be good

As the last comments said, there is no reason to Thank "us" its all you. When I found out you were ONLY 19. I was amazed, I myself am only 17, and you really inspired me, I am actually taking Piano lessons, and just bought myself a Casio =P. Keep it up man, you,davidoor,and Maestro are so talented, Thanks for the great music!!

Joe Monti

i was because of you that I decided to start composing to upload at newgrounds, thank YOU!

thank you for being an inspiration for most of my songs =)

You make the best music man, hope you make more great hits.

you are truly a great musician... we all hope to see more wondeful music from you. all the best :)

Incredible, for the last couple days I have been stumbling across some of the greatest composers that newgrounds has to offer. But that all ended once I found you. The stuff that you transpire to create, the very tale that you weave is the song that you create. In all my time on newgrounds I have only found five composers that I think truly put their soul into creating the stuff that is so used it is lost.

1. You
2. MaestroRage
3. Soundshifter (couple of his anyhow)
4. afliXion
Finally...
5. Danman87

I am sure there are others waiting to be found, some that sit in the shadows where no one can really see them.

All I can really say is amazing, stupendous, a great collection of some of the best that newgrounds has to offer.

So as "The-Great-One" said, "You shouldn't be the one thanking us, we should be the ones thanking you..."

Keep up the great work, and remember that perhaps sometime in the future people will look back and remember the stories that you told with the medium that you love.

no...thank you...you have shown me the true beauty of music...thank you...

sorry for changing nothing personal i just goth (and i vote for that 5)

Remember back when you were young
The day was was never new
and nothing left undone

Back when boys and girls held hands
SanTwo d castles in the sands
Don't you remember?!

Folded bloody notes in the park
Murders when it was dark
This was our doom

After school in every day
"We all die" thats what i say
Do you remember

And here lies the innocence
Of times past
Not so long ago!

I need something
Even more than
I have needed
Once before
My hood...

Make believe
In sands lands
We'd make two castles
in the sands
I need my hood!

Maybe we've got it all wrong? nah...
When you knew love, then i know war
The heart of a child can be unpure!
Now when we say I hate you
We'd better be sure you allive!

And make your experiences last
Or spend the rest of your life
I still remember the Past!

(Bad_Man_Incorporated's Guitar solo)

From beauty of that shoot i miss
Without knowing just what war is
A Fascination

Without every knowing why
We could simply go to shop and buy
and tehy could die!

I need something
Even more than
I have needed
Once before
My hood...

(they could die)

Make believe (they could die)
In sands lands
We'd make two castles
in the sands
Give me my hood!
(you could die)

I can see myself dreaming
I find strength in believing
That I haven't wasted any time

Close your eyes and imagine
Feel Strong in your passion
Leave your troubles and your pain behind
and kill the others , make them die...
