...and good riddance February!
So far the productivity streak of 2015 is going great. i don't have a job yet at the moment but soon I will have one once I move back to Penang. I mentioned a collaboration project last month so here's a few updates on that.
I am working on a song together with Kazu Livingstone. It's more of a slam poetry than a song. I just compose the music. The process is going slowly but things are getting done. We recorded some parts of it already. I have yet to arrange everything in the project files. Also, I admit that my music-making skills is some what fixed. I blame the lack of practice. During the time of this collaboration is when me and friend Kevin began sharing songs (complete or unfinished) with each other. He got me into using FL Studio. We started doing some EDM stuff and planning on releasing an EP once we have enough songs (complete ones anyway because we tend to go back to a song and rework it). Kevin is mainly making melodic dubstep. Me on the other hand is focusing on an older variety of EDM. 80's Electronica. To be honest, I don't even know if that is the actual genre of it. So I'm just gonna throw in some artists here that I like listening to;

Lost Years, Kavinsky, mitch murder, Lazerhawk, Power Glove
I have a lot of love for the 80's. Everything from the movies, music, and video games. Mostly just music and movies (Fact: Contrary to popular beliefs, my favorite all time sci-fi film is Blade Runner not Star Wars). I made a full song recently that I used in video I made recently. Which brings us to the next part of my update.

NEW CONTENT ON PIX3L_NATION!
Some of you may have seen my latest work, DJ Sona. It's been a very long time since I did a timelapse of my pixel art creations. When DJ Sona was announced for the SEA servers for League of Legends, I was pumped for it. Mainly because of the free promo songs they did for the skin.
I knew that I was gonna make fan art of it and had I had a feeling in my gut that it's gonna turn out great so recorded the process. It was kinda spontaneous which is why I din't livestream the process like I normally do. I don't like planning out on when to do art. Feels like work. This? This feels natural. Anyways, the song used in the video was done by me. It was inspired by the PAYDAY 2 soundtrack by Simon Viklund so I made a PAYDAY 2-esque heist song which you can totally download and use for free!
Dead Altogether
It's been a year and my feelings for PIX3L_NATION had not changed. The ratio of work and passion is still unbalanced as fuck with the heavier side of things being work. I still did some shit for PIX3L_NATION throughout this year but it just doesn't feel the same way and it could possibly stay the same way if I keep doing this to myself over and over again.
So with that being said, I fucking quit pixel art. Altogether but not quite.
I'm taking a break from pixel art and that means PIX3L_NATION gots to go as well since I'm the last man standing. Both me and the group is gonna be on break. I am tired of trying to handle PIX3L_NATION alone and
November 2015 Update
PIX3L_NATION on hiatus.
Back from the dead again with some slightly depressing news. Over the past few months, my art group, PIX3L_NATION had been expanded greatly since it's formation for the last 2 years. Unfortunately, I felt that that the progress and changes that were made were too fast and too vast for the group to handle, it had faded out like a lit matchstick. Main contributions to this situation was very bad decisions made mid-2015 that led to our co-founder's departure. In result, the rest of the members followed. All members had parted ways mutually. I won't go into individual details with the member's departure.
Personally, I ha
July 2015 Update
Yet again, I forgot to write a monthly update. At least every time I forget, I'll have more to write about in the next one. It's almost August to be even writing an entry for July. There is a high chance I might not writing an entry for next month. I don't have any particular reason as to why I keep on forgetting to write up a monthly update apart from not being tentative to DeviantART.
So yeah, in case anyone didn't know about it, I have my very own website now. Well...my pixel art guild, PIX3L_NATION does. The site serves more of an online store for us right now. Primarily, we're only selling t-shirts on the website store. Other merch will
May 2015 Update
Yet another busy month!
This month, we are proud to announce that PIX3L_NATION will be joining Beautiful Junk 2015 on their last ride. What makes it even more special this year is that the exhibition will be a first in Malaysia to have a 3D anaglyph art exhibition. In conjunction with Beautiful Junk, Behance Portfolio Review Penang will also be returning as well. By the time you are reading this, you probably would have missed it already.
However, the exhibition is still on-going until June 7th, at 179 The House (right next to China House) on Victoria Street, Penang. Anaglyph glasses will be provided. So if you are in Penang or coming down t
