Looks like "FASHIONABLE" took the lead with 69 (nice) point 444 (insert infinite amount of 4's)% out of all 36 votes!
I guess, it's either a catchy name of that song, or being from a franchise, that does ring the bell to some people who voted here I revealed some info, or both.

As for my second prediction, on why people chose "FASHIONABLE", I have couple of other songs from that same franchise to black, but I need to black FASHIONABLE first, before I can do another poll, assuming I won't burn out, and be extra lazy on not doing this (very high chances on me actually be lazy anyway).

Yes, hello, I'm still alive after just shy of 2 years later. Happy Victory Day to the Russian viewers and thanks for 7K subs. I'm doing fine on Black MIDI Community Hub and few of good people's own servers.
You won't believe it, but I haven't made a proper black MIDI ever since 2015. And it's time to change that for my future special, by blacking one of the songs you choose.
No, I'm not gonna elaborate on names. All caps on the songs I put is fun.

No, I am not dead even after exactly a year later, but I am still busy with College and Bandori HELL.

Speaking of Bandori, here's my Thank You letter for a recent ENdori event named "So Begins the Sound of My Past/Present".
For those who waiting for my new videos, I'll be making one last video on this channel, talking about where I was gone, the college things, as well as my current obsession to Rhythm games.

Until then, see you next time. Oh, and don't forget to give a like for this tweet (now my personal Twitter is @Rinkos_RinRins, the @DmitrysMedia has become as a media-related news to my content): twitter.com/Rinkos_RinRins/status/1641916472376131…

*THIS IS NOT AN EARLY APRIL FOOLS JOKE. I AM MOVING TO A NEW MUSIC CHANNEL. BUT, THE FUTURE DOES NOT JUST DEPEND ON ME, THANKS TO ONGOING THINGS IN THE WORLD*.

*I will never die*.
This is the title for one of Merm4id's songs, that will go to their 1st album named "V.I.P LAGOON".
It also means, that after 2 years of hiatus, I am finally back to Black MIDIs! But, there is several catches I want to talk about.

1. Russian Invasion
So many restrictions, companies, and more were made against the country I'm a citizen in: Foreign tech companies have paused their product shipments, or stopped entirely, Spotify is gone, after only 1.5 years of their existence in here, Google has completely disabled advertisement engine in Russia (meaning AdWords and YouTube ads no longer showing for Russian IPs), Mastercard and Visa became no longer available to use in stores outside of Russia in addition of Apple/Google/Samsung Pay (Samsung Pay still works, if you have Mir card added), and much, much more.
This also means, that the plans for creating my Patreon are going to be canceled.

Due to the ongoing events, I have to delay the start of my tech channel "Dmitry's Tech", with it's unpredictable future of Russian economy (more sanctions/insanely jumping exchange currency).

Facebook, Instagram and Twitter were blocked by Roskomnadzor, due to their involvement of censoring Russian news media. YouTube is also being under heavy pressure from RKN to stop doing it, otherwise, it would be blocked.
TikTok has also paused for Russians ability for uploading video to this platform.

I am putting the links to all of the social medias, that I really use, and have either a page or a community for:
English:
Telegram (Mostly English): t.me/dmitrysmusic
VK (Dmitry's Music, Russian): vk.com/dmitrys_music
Twitter (Dmitry's Media, English, might have some issues posting there, due to some access issues, the username will be changed soon to DmitrysMedia): twitter.com/Dmitrys_Music
Twitter (Dmitry's Gaming, English): Will be revealed on a livestream.
Additionally, you can also find me on Black MIDI Community Hub and UNGA Academy (if you enjoy Bandori/D4DJ) Discord servers, as well as on some of the other good people, that I enjoy the works or just having a good time with them.

2. Completely Demonetized, Final Livestream Scheduled for March 31st and My Current Vision on Black MIDI Content
Watch time for last 12 months on this channel has finally come down to less than 4 thousand hours.
I completely forgot to submit a video appeal to explain everything for YouTube, as to why I think they falsely demonetized me.
This will be probably the worst news for everyone, who is watching my channel, but I have to say for all: *One more Livestream in here, and I am creating a new Music channel, _starting with a clean sheet of paper._*

"Why are you doing this?" you might ask. Because I want an actual audience, who is willing to watch my videos of High Quality MIDIs.
Unfortunately, with the variety of different videos on this channel for everyone ("Challenges", Korean-Style and Visual-Based MIDIs, Piano Tutorials), I have came to the conclusion: Do not upload several types of them. Where it particularly really blew up on it, continue upload videos, that it makes people a lot of sense, of what you do.
Good examples: ‪@orangepaprika67‬ has got a lot of views on multi-billion note MIDIs, so he does videos of MIDIs, that often contain a lot of notes. ‪@HSR_BlackMIDI_158.3‬ does Korean-Style MIDIs, so he makes and uploads these kinds of things, once his Squid Game Black MIDIs got blew up.
I'm personally in the Korean-Style territory, so I don't really expect to upload many Visual-based things, unless it really appeals to me.

The livestream is scheduled for March 31st at 9 PM GMT/UTC+4 (10 AM PDT), and there will almost not be proper preparation for it, due to the lack of my time to make everything from start to finish, since I have to do some Rhythm Gaming on morning, and then college homework 2-3 hours before the stream. *The Stream might be delayed for an hour*
I decided to make a 4 hour stream, with 2 hours of Black MIDIs, 1 hour of my Rhythm Gaming skills demonstration, and then I will discuss the future plans of my YouTube carreer, and the current state of Russia.
I know, it will be rough, but I will try to explain as much as possible, as long as it doesn't break the Community Guidelines. This will be also streamed on Twitter, Twitch, VK, and CyberHero for Tele2 Russia subscribers for those without unlimited data on Twitch, YouTube or VK.

3. Music Part 2 renamed to Tech, Gaming Channel is Finally About to Go Live After 7 Years of No Activity
Only very old curious viewers of my channel from May 10th 2015 will remember the "New channel starting tomorrow!" video. To this day, I still have NOT made a proper video on that channel, that I would be proud of it.
That will be changed with a compilation video, showcasing April Fools in different rhythm games/versions. Since "BanG Dream!" and "Project Sekai" in JP servers are about a year ahead from Worldwide ones, I decided to showcase both of these on that video.
Unfortunately, since D4DJ Groovy Mix game is rated as 18+ in Russia, due to "Simulated Gambling", I will upload that one as a separate video, since I'd want to make that one a bit unusual.

The Russian Internet might be dying from it's freedom, but I am always here with you all.

I very appreciate the support from you all though these 8 years. It was a long and rough journey: from a cringe kid, who barely understood English, used translator and always played random MIDIs he found on YouTube and reuploaded them (also getting a middle finger from ‪@DJDelta0‬ at some point), to a guy, who is now very capable at texting and talking without using translator, being passionate to quirky and unusual Japanese things (BanG Dream and D4DJ are very good examples), and being knowledgeable enough for tech related things.
Is this is the end of my YouTube career? Only the Russian Media Watchdog God knows it, and I will update on that later.
I have planned several anniversary special celebrations for 2022, so stay tuned for new videos on 3 channels, if YouTube would still be available in Russia as normal as it is now..

Apologies for any grammar issues in this post, I finished writing it at almost 4 AM, and I seriously need some sleep now.
See you all tomorrow on a livestream!

Apologies for no stream, that supposed to be happened today. It will be postponed for tomorrow for the same scheduled time (10 AM PST).
Was too busy to do other things, not up for a "short session in Photoshop" and setting up OBS during that day.

BIGGEST ANNOUNCEMENT: MY CHANNEL HAS BEEN COMPLETELY DEMONETIZED.

1. The time has finally come to my channel. After coming back to YPP in mid-2018, having issues with AdSense for a while, month later after reassociating it, their robots are now thinking, that I am "reusing content".
What content it is exactly "been reused", was not specified. But I can definitely say, that most of my last videos with several month publish interval in 2018-January 2020 have been thought of very carefully.

Recently, YouTube has added for some people (myself included) a "video appeal" option for those, who have not removed any videos during demonetization. I am researching this subject, and I will send them the process, of how my videos are created.
Yes, you have heard me right. Showcasing, how I am filming and editing my videos.
If the appeal would be rejected, then I have to wait for 30 days since demonetization, before reapplying again.

To be honest, it is normal for almost everyone in Black MIDI Community culture to upload videos this way, so we can support ourselves each other. I am surprised, that ‪@EpreTroll‬, ‪@LucasMIDI‬, ‪@orangepaprika67‬, ‪@MusiMasta‬ and other Black MIDI YouTubers being in YouTube Partner Program who are doing this way, are still yet to receive the same thing by YouTube's algorithms (despite Epre and Scub being already demonetized in the past for "repeated content" back in 2019).
During my 2 year hiatus, I was rethinking on my plans, while enjoying rhythm games, as well as getting into informativeness of smartphones and Retro Tech, secretly planning, what next Black MIDI video I should upload with my new very strict sets of requirements, mostly them being on embargo. Unfortunately, with the current state of Black MIDIs, it is hard to predict, for how long *Good* and *proper* Black MIDIs would still be made, since my monitoring has proven, that there is a lot of people watching clones of Rush, Nut, and Noise Challenges, all sorts of low quality content.

I have become a college student since September 2019, completing online assignments before the pandemic craze began. In 2020, I have became a victim to be addicted for rhythm games, By the end of that year, after I have became an adult, I have officially become a disabled person, and I've finally built a new PC on a new platform. No new GPU, RIP my wallet.
In 2021 in May, English version of "D4DJ: Groovy Mix" was released, and I have fully moved to one of my grandma's house I used to go on occasions. In July, I got a POCO F3, since my Galaxy A9 2018 has really showed it's age for 2 years, and I have to move on with better-equipped hardware. It made my overall experience much better. That is, until I have became a bit pessimistic about some things I'm thinking of.

2. That being said, receiving this thing, has made me go to absolute madness to quickly rethink on my plans, and launch my own media group named "Dmitry's Media" as quickly as possible.
Now, what channels will be included in Dmitry's Media?

Dmitry's Music would stay as a flagship channel of media group with very strict sets of requirements. No low-quality MIDIs, only curately chosen, while following all the other rules as much as possible, with not your average looking video.

Dmitry's Music Part 2 would be rebranded to Dmitry's Tech as a tech-related channel.
It will contain my personal retrospective of old phones, cameras, PCs, or generally anything that catches my attention on Retro things. On occasions I might do reviews of newer products.
Not sure on what language I am going to speak (Russian or English), but first videos should began publishing, starting from March 2022.

Remember the Dmitry's Games I have promoted in a very small video back in 2015 (oldies would probably remember it)? That will be known as Dmitry's Gaming. It will contain Quality (or not so much on occasions) Rhythm Gaming videos. Mostly about "BanG Dream! GBP" and "D4DJ", but I might cover other games too.

3. Due to YouTube's biggest action on my channel, I am officially announcing the livestream happening on February 1st, the 8th Anniversary of this YouTube Channel. That activity check I've posted earlier is now invalid. The stream will be consisted of 3 parts.

Obviously, since most of you are coming from Black MIDIs, I am dedicating the first hour of a stream to them.
During that hour, I will be accepting any MIDI requests, that it is of good enough quality, without making most of my audience embarrased.
Hour 2 would be a showcase of me playing rhythm games at it's current state. I will also talk about annoying issues going on for ENdori (English version of "BanG Dream! GBP" for short) for Android 11/12 users.
And finally, hour 3 would be dedicated to the discussion with more experienced viewers of my current monetization channel state, what plans I have, and what I would do, if I would not get back to Partner Program.
The stream starts on February 1st 22:00 GMT/UTC+4 (3 PM EST), but it might be delayed for an additional hour, depending on my studying situations on that day.

Once again, very apologies for no new videos or streams since 2020. I am still active in BMC Discord server, albeit due my current dedication to games, it became to wane a bit.
COVID is another subject, that I do not want to talk, other than that I am going to get a second dose of vaccine in next week, wish me luck on that.

I hope we can all resolve this together, as even channels as big as 800K subscribers have to deal with this.
Stay safe, take care. And always remember: Nothing is impossible.
-Dmitry

Let's check the activity, if there are still people watching me.
If this post gets 8 likes before January 31st 23:00 GMT/UTC+4 (11 PM), then I'll do a stream on February 1st for an 8th anniversary of my channel.
If it doesn't get it, then no stream, sorry.

EMERGENCY POST: I MAY LEAVE FROM YOUTUBE, IF IT GETS BLOCKED IN RUSSIA.
Time to wake up after 20 months of my channel inactivity, but I have no comments about how the "Almighty Russian Internet Regulator" is literally trying so hard to close the door for everything, yet we still somehow can get into.

So yeah, It's possible that I may stop uploading videos, if Google manages to *NOT* listening to our government.
This means that if it actually happens (assuming if Google wouldn't restore 2 of RT's channels in German), I'll do one last official video, I'm pretty much gone from YouTube. No promises, but if in the end I wouldn't be able to reliably access and upload videos on YouTube, I will let you know..

In case if they do, I am available in other platforms, if RKN actually does this:
Twitter: twitter.com/Dmitrys_Music
Telegram: t.me/dmitrysmusic
Facebook: www.facebook.com/DmitrysMusic/
Instagram (will be active, depending on whether RKN will block YouTube here or not, but definitely in plans for 2022): @official_dmitrys_music
TikTok: Will be revealed until the X thing would be done for Instagram.
Black MIDI Community Discord: discord.gg/s42aft8
VK (Russian): vk.com/dmitrys_music

Sorry for inconvenience, I cannot really do much at this moment, when I have huge plans of new content.
But Roskomnadzor is about to push that BAN button, and we all lose access to it, as well as other services, who use things based off of YouTube pretty soon.

and yes, this is a 12:05 AM GMT/UTC+4 repost for those who have missed it, and to give a more bolder title to it.
