Hello. I upload obscure music from video games, anime, etc. I'll extend songs & remixes/covers every Sunday, and sometimes upload full soundtracks/music compilations on some Wednesdays/Thursdays.
I usually upload stuff for myself, but I make it public for those that are curious/want to listen to them as well. I'm fine with requests, but if the track has already been extended or the soundtrack has already been uploaded, I'll decline the request. I'll also decline if it's too much to extend or if I'm not particularly fond of the song (I don't want this to feel like a job when it's just a hobby). Also, please don't use links for requests, it takes me longer to get to the request as its picked up by YouTube's comment manager. It's easier for me and you to not use links.
I don't make any money from this by the way, any ads that appear are by the people that copyright claim my videos. If anyone has any problems with any of my videos, please let me know and I'll take down said videos.

Heyo, for this post, I have both a poll and an update to my schedule for the year.
So, I have a backlog of 112 extensions I want to upload and get out of the way. Normally, I upload 20ish videos max a week, but I also really want to get publishing these extensions out of the way to clear up my backlog. Most of these extensions were supposed to be published last year, but due to some burnout (and also getting sick in mid-December), I wasn't able to fill out the meta information/finish them until now.
I wanted to ask how you'd prefer the frequency of uploads to be for the backlog, which I'll start uploading next Sunday (April 14). My preference would be 56 extensions, but I also know that'd really bloat up your sub boxes.
As for my schedule outside of my backlog, this year I plan on trying a different approach where once I complete a project (compilation video or extend the entire/a large portion of a soundtrack from a title), I just upload it. While I've stuck with the weekly Sunday uploads for years; and I will absolutely miss the consistency; problems started to build up with it, mainly the severe burnout, trying to reach a goal that caused me to push myself (700 extensions in 2023 was the goal), and at one point having a backlog of over 200 videos last year. I'm hoping uploading videos this way will minimize the backlog and better prevent burnout.
Although, I'm still trying to figure out how to implement requests/misc. extensions into the equation, but I'm sure I'll figure that out.
That will be all, thank you to everyone who votes and watches my extensions, I genuinely appreciate it. I'm happy to be able to spread more awareness for music that's on more obscure side, I'm glad people are able to discover tunes that deserve the attention they deserve. :D

Heyo, I just got the Community Post ability unlocked for my channel. I'm not sure how much I'll use it, maybe not at all after this post, but I did want to make at least one community post to thank everyone.
Thank you everyone that is subscribed to my channel. Thank you to everyone that has commented nice things about my music extensions, for my work on an extension/extensions, and for everyone that let me know about mistakes/gave feedback. Thank you to everyone who has liked my extensions. I genuinely really appreciate all of it.
It feels unreal I have 500+ subscribers, I think like most people on this platform, I started this channel as a hobby to extend my favourite music tracks and soundtracks. Heck, it's still a hobby for that. It's nice to see how far I've come on this channel and how much I've posted in 4+ years. So, again, thank you, I really appreciate it.
