EzioEagle

Today is the first anniversary of me starting my channel, so I figured I'd yap a bit. I've already talked a bunch about what led me to creating the channel (in the description of the ISAT King's Theme cover), so I won't talk about that too much here. I just want to say thank so so much for watching, whether you've been here since near the beginning, or if this is the first video you've seen from me. I've kinda hinted at it before, but yeah let's just say mental health has been pretty rough, but doing this, seeing that people actually like what I make, really means more to me than I can express. Thank you so, so much. I want to keep doing this for as long as I can, and I've got some big goals for this next year.
Also, this was meant to go in the description of the Game Over (Don't Leave Me Alone Here) that I just posted today https://youtu.be/uon_nNA6D78 , but it's too long for a youtube description, so feel free to listen to it while you read this, if you've played In Stars And Time because it's kinda spoilery (but also go play it if you haven't, it's such a great game that Not Enough people have played)
Finishing my 2 main cover album projects, In Stars And Time and Undertale Yellow, will be a big focus. ISAT will be basically the entire OST, minus a few that are extremely short, or just versions of other tracks. Since the UTY soundtrack is huge, 135 tracks, I can't do all of them, within some reasonable time frame at least. So I'm aiming to make a little album of around 30 ish covers. I'm a bit under half way for both of them, so it will take a while. I'll also be doing some other covers from other games I like, just whenever I feel like it. Obviously the other big thing coming is Deltarune Chapters 3&4, which will be releasing really soon, I'm guessing late march to early May, hopefully on the earlier side of that range. I'm definitely going to be doing covers of that, probably quite a lot. After they come out, I'll probably be doing a few weeks of only Deltarune covers, and then going back to a mix.
Another thing I want to do is potentially putting my covers on streaming services (Spotify, Bandcamp, etc). It would be so cool to have my music on them, but unfortunately that's a lot more work than it sounds, it's not as simple as just uploading it. I'd need to do a bunch of work fully polishing it to their rules and standards, making album art, and I'll have to pay for cover licences and stuff. Another big problem is that you can't add tracks to an existing album on most services (you can on Bandcamp, but not most others like Spotify), so I can't just just release an album now and add new covers as I make them. So I have to wait till I'm done with all the ones I want to cover, and then post them all at once, which will probably be a while lol. I could release them as singles but that has its own problems.
Another goal is to get to 1000 subs, since that will mean I unlock some new stuff for the channel. The main one being finally being able to take back some of that money from google that my vids make from ads lol. Obviously it's not going to be a lot, but it would still be nice. So yea, if you like my covers (and if you're reading this far into this wall of text, it's safe to say you do lmao), and you're not subscribed yet, please do, it would really help me out. If you really want to help out even more, another way is by joining my Patreon www.patreon.com/c/EzioEagle , or becoming a Youtube Member. They're 100% optional, but I hugely appreciate anyone who does it (thanks 60lapie60 :) ). You'll also get some cool perks like getting updates on what I'm working on and WIPs, and getting your name at the end of my videos. I also sometimes post bonus covers that are old and I'm not planning on posting here, at least in their current form, because they're not up to my current standards. I don't do these too often, but I'm posting 2 of them today, THE WORLD REVOLVING and BIG SHOT. I might end up remaking/polishing them up to my current standards and posting them as a proper cover here, but for now, you can check out the "beta" versions there :) You'll get the same stuff whether you use Patreon or youtube Memberships, but Patreon is cheaper since Youtube has a big fee, so I'd recommend Patreon. You can also give one off donations through Ko-Fi or Youtube super chats, but I definitely recommend Patreon/memberships instead, since you'll get stuff in return.
I also have some more personal goals, one of them is to actually talk to people more, to say I have social anxiety would be an understatement lol. Just posting my music for thousands of people is way more than I thought I could do before I started this channel, which is a big step! ...but it's still Not Enough. So I'm going to try to be a bit more proactive with that sort of stuff. I don't really need to say this publicly, but idk I guess I'm just hoping that me saying this here will push me to actually do it more lmao. So yea check out my Bluesky bsky.app/profile/ezioeagle.bsky.social (and twitter... I guess... twitter.com/EzioEagle21 ), I'll maybe try to make it more than just a cover reposting account, and actually talk to people there sometimes lol.
But yeah, thanks so much for listening to my silly bleeps and bloops, I can't wait to make more cool stuff!

Also I hid the title of my next cover in this somewhere, not the obvious ones, it's integrated into a sentence, I wonder if anyone can find it (well I have actually mentioned it twice before, obviously on the Patreon/Youtube Membership, but also somewhere publicly, but shh that's cheating)
