52. flatter & colder / edge of the world [/ kiss you / the end always]

final upload of the year is another medley/megamix thing. intended as a 2 parter plus 2 bonus tracks, like the secret tracks you would find at the end of the cd,

thanks if you have been listening to my stuff. please check out my other work and follow/subscribe! i didn't originally want to connect this project to my main body of work, so i would have the freedom to make "bad" tracks, do stuff that was a bit more personal, or get "experimental" beyond what might make it through the quality control filter for jvz stuff. but i think this mostly turned out pretty decent, or at least not any worse than other "x quota in y time frame" projects i've done. standing back and looking at it as a whole, i'm proud of it.

i released a total of 3 hours of music in this project - just enough to fill a free soundcloud account. i will be compiling the best tracks and releasing them on bandcamp in the new year, maybe with some edits, or just as they are, i haven't decided yet 🤔

this project helped me grow, pushed me to try new things and functioned as a kind of anchor as life went on.

thanks again for listening, i hope i was able to make you feel something with my music. see you in 2026?

Wohoooo! Four tracks for the price of jusg one, step right up, hhuwoa is giving them away for free! Hahahaha...
Out of all of these, I think that my favorite might be "the end always". Its laid back lofi energy and that hypnotic percussion loop really connected with me.

I can 100% relate!

Have a great 2025 and I'll see you back here in 2026!

Dear hhuwoa, you did a fantastic job this year. I loved the experimental approach you showed us. The hidden track idea is great, as I was always happy, when I discovered them on a CD. The 3:55 minute song is my absolute favorite. Have a beautiful 2025.

Yay for bonus tracks, I loved CD's that had those. Great concept here and good track, the pulsing movement at first, into the bonus calm, so chill and good. 100% to pushing and growing from the anchor that is WB. Well put!
Congrats, and thanks for the music this year, and have a wonderful 2026!

thanks so much guys! i'm glad you enjoyed the track(s). i was torn between using "the end always" as a fitting closing track, and my commitment to using the same drum samples/stems from weeks39, 26 and 13, which appear here in "edge of the world", to close out each quarter of the year. i had to use both tracks! but they didn't work just slapped together with their highly contrasting moods, so i added the other two tracks as buffers/segues and for this "bonus cd track" concept. a little self-indulgent but i think it worked and i'm pleased with it. 8)

my dear Q-Rosh, thank you so much for your continued interest in my tracks and consistent feedback, it has meant a lot to me over the year. and you have been a huge inspiration as well. i sent an email awhile back with my contact info, via this site, so i'm not sure if that ever went through. but if you (or anyone) would like to keep in touch you can reach me via any of the links i've shared here. and i certainly hope to see you here again in 2026 smile

that goes for all of you! i regret that i didn't engage more with the community. partly it was simply due to how i spend my time - i didn't set aside time to do as much listening and engaging as i would have liked to. in the first two weeks i tried to listen to everyone's tracks, and it took me so long that i never tried again lol. obviously i could have taken a more moderate approach, but unfortunately it became an endless "i'll do it later" situation.

it was an interesting experiment in having my work in this more public space than usual. i'm torn between wanting my music to get more attention from a wider audience, and my own tendency toward hermitude and privacy. for me, privacy is essential to the creative process; if i felt like lots of people were paying close attention and regularly giving feedback, it would start to taint the creative process and i'd become more concerned with "making stuff people will like". in the past i've found this line of thinking to be detrimental and can even dry up the well of creativity entirely. so i had to walk this line, knowing people could see it and follow me if they wanted, but "pretending" they weren't. this worked well for me and helped me to keep going.

i greatly appreciate all of you who have listened and followed along and either left comments or silently enjoyed my music from an anonymous distance. i do of course want people to hear my music but i have these tendencies/principles around the creative process that have kept me from doing what i need to do to reach a wider audience. this was a first small step... thank you for being part of it smile
