Congratulations on making such a solid body of work. It is
interesting <br>
to hear the progression in production quality and composition
over the <br>
years but it does seem timely to call the project complete and
move on <br>
to different goals. I will never listen to all 300 of them
however.<br>
<br>
I was slightly disappointed you have moved away from using
Linux but <br>
your latest, Mystic Waters, is probably your best release yet
(as I <br>
mentioned in a message when I purchased it from Bandcamp) so
FL Studio <br>
seems to be the right tool for the job.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your contributions; I'm sure you have inspired
others to try <br>
new things!<br>
<br>
Cheers, Roger<br>
