New year - new songs

Added 2025-01-07 10:46:45 +0000 UTC

Dear Patrons,

2024 was a good year for shieldbearers! Eight new songs, eight new bangers. Did some really fun collaborations, explored sound design a great deal and had a lot of fun with it. Learned a bunch of stuff, purchased a few new(actually old) microphones. All in all a good year for me.

Views and streaming-numbers have been dwindling, but I'm at that stage where I don't have any expectations of performance. I put so much effort into every production, and I just know that expecting to get better-than-average performance will lead to disappointment, so I just try to be proud and happy with what I produce and leave it at that. It is what It is. Acceptance is the key to happiness.

2025 is off to a good start though! I have FOUR new songs in the making - two of which are mixed - and I'll be sharing the first drop with you in a little while.

You will be seeing a lot less of League music moving forward. The reason is...a bit complicated but in short, I don't have any relationship to the game, and I've just been ignored/or rudely treated by Riot lately. I'll still be putting just as much effort into my songs, so I hope you'll stick around for whatever I'll be making. Hopefully I will be able to bring a wider audience into the fold as well.

To give you a little preview, these are the topics I'm working on:
- A factorio song(coming out in Jan)
- A Brann Bronzebeard(WoW) delves song(draft teased for some tiers)
- A Warhammer 40k Emperor of man song(I think there will be more 40k songs)
- A Path of Exile 2 song(Had some fun with the game, wrote a song)

That was it for the life update. If you have any song direction suggestions, I'll be happy to take them! :)

Thank you ever so much for your support, it means a lot!
