Hey all. Don't really feel like making a song this week since I've been hit with a pretty bad case of writer's block. Hopefully it goes away by next week though

Heyoooooo. Guess who's back!? (Back again?) (Salty's back?) (Tell a friend?) Nonother than the one, thee only, thee, SaltyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyySaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaltShakrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr woooooooo!!!!! (cricket noises cricket noises cricket noises)
...and the crowd goes mild...


Yeahhhhhhhhh sorry about the extended break. I didn't expect to be gone this long, but I've had a very crazy and busy summer. However as things go back to normal now, I'll try to start slowly churning out some tracks for you again, and hopefully I can finish this album (Metal&Magic) before the year ends, hahaha. (That's not funny)
Luckily, I've still been making music while on my break, and I just haven't been uploading any of it, so I've got a bit of a buffer that I can work with while I try to go back to (somewhat) weekly uploads.


As you may (or may not) have also noticed from the song, I decided to treat myself to some new VSTs for my birthday back in May. And so now I've got
Shreddage 3 Darkwall (Bass Guitar),
Shreddage 3 Hydra (8-String Guitar),
Modern and Massive 2 (Drums),
and also a bunch of Fabfilter stuff for mixing/mastering purposes.
(Still learning a lot of it, so please be patient with me lol) Hopefully you'll notice a difference in the sound quality of my songs moving forward. But anywho, I've yapped long enough and nobody is probably even reading this at this point. (However if you still are, then I appreciate you.)

In conclusion, sorry for the long break but I'm gonna be back making tunes for you lovely people at a semi-weekly basis now. (might miss a week if I'm just not feeling it or something else important comes up) But regardless, I hope you stick around and see all the crazy songs I have in store for you going forward.


Thank you for your continued support and patience

P.S. Don't forget to check out the new song. I'm very proud of how this one turned out!!

Hey yall! Been a while huh? Hope you're all doing well.

Recently, I've been going through a pretty bad writer's block and I just can't seem to compose anything that I'm really happy with. So I will be taking a short break from the channel so I can hopefully come back energized and with some fresh ideas. It's also my birthday this week (May 7th), so that's another reason for me taking a break. I just want to sit back and relax for a little bit with the fam.

So, um...yeah. That's it... I hope you'll all still be here when I get back in maybe a week or two, and until then have a good one. Thank you for your patience and support.

In case you missed it in my latest video, I will be taking a break from making music because my 1000 sub special really took a lot out of me. I'm not sure when I'll be back but I definitely won't be gone for good.

P.S. When I do come back, I'll be changing my upload schedule to upload just whenever I feel like it as well, instead of once a week. Having to worry about composing a song and uploading it once a week is kinda stressful and brings down my enjoyment of making music. I hope you can understand, and will still be here when I get back.


Thank you for all the love and support these past few years and thank you so much for 1000 Subscribers!!!

Hyo! Just a quick update.

Sorry for being so sparse with uploads, I've been working a lot lately so I haven't had a lot of time to make anything music-wise, and any time I HAVE had has gone into working on my 1000 Subscriber Special. It's easily my biggest and most ambitious project so far, so it's taking me a LOT of time to try and get it just right.
In saying all this I hope you can wait just a little while longer for me to finish it.

As always, thank you for your continued support and patience.

Hey all. I just wanted to let you know that I've been kind of busy as of late, and so I haven't had time to make a song this week. I'll try to put out a song next week though, so I hope you'll look forward to it!

Hope you all have a good day!

Hello there! How's it hanging?

Sooooo... I've caught a pretty nasty cold somewhat recently and I have been in bed for the past few days. I've mainly just been resting and haven't had any time to make music at all, and so I just wanted to let all of you know that I most likely won't upload a song this week. I'm feeling a little better today and I started a new song, buuuuuut I most likely won't have it finished anytime soon.

Thank you for your continued patience and support, and I hope you'll look forward to my next upload!!! :D

Yuhhh!! It's been a minute.

Just wanted to let all of you know that with Christmas getting closer and closer, I'm getting more and more busy with various things in life, so I have less and less time to compose anything. (It also doesn't help that I still have writer's block, and lately, I just haven't been feeling super inspired by anything either.)

In saying all of this, I think I'm just gonna take a small break until the new year. That way I can hopefully come back, well-rested and refreshed so I can make some high-quality stuff for you guys. In the meantime though, I won't just be doing nothing.

For the next few weeks, I'll try and make use of my Spotify more, (A.K.A, actually upload songs there lol.)
I've already started by putting my latest upload on there, "Aquatic Ambiance (Remix)". If you have time, I would appreciate it if you went and gave it a listen. I'd argue it's the best piece I've done so far, just from a mixing and mastering perspective, and I also learned SO much just from making it.

Anyway, hope you all have a good Christmas and I'll keep you updated for when I'm posting tracks to Spotify.
Happy Holidays ~ SSS

Heyo! It's been a while. Hope everyone's doing well.

Just wanted to give you all a little heads up, that my two week vacation from work ends today. And so uploads will probably go back to just being once a week, or whenever I can.
I hope you will all stick around and look forward to my future releases. Thank you

Heyo. How's it going? Hope you're all doing well.
I've been feeling a little tired lately from work, so I probably won't be putting out a song this week. Just wanted to let yall know. My regular weekly schedule will resume next week.
Thank you for your continued support and patience.
