Untitled Halloween 2021 Song (WIP) 

That one doesn't have a name. And don't tell anyone but I did start messing around with it again so it might end up seeing the light of day!

Touhou fans like ExileLord music lol

PD:Im Touhou fan too lol

Thanks! The art is something I whipped up in Photoshop to try to capture the general vibe I was going for. Since this is just a WIP, I didn't want to go too crazy though. Only spent around six hours on the song so far (compared to the 400 or so in Coalescence and Segmentation) so it should sound better by the time I'm finished.

@@ExileLord The art looks really nice, after a few listens i can sorta see what you meant with trying to capture the vibe, and ngl it seems fairly well fitting, the slow fade transition towards the more heavy shade of blue seems like an intresting choice, i like the beginning color pallette a bit more where it looks a bit more like it would be just black&white, but thats just my two cents about it

Jesus Christ dude, he has other projects he wants to work on besides Soulless. Let the man do what he wants.

I'm a little more aware of how long I tend to spend on things compared to my initial estimates now. 🙂

Songs do take a while to make, especially stuff with Exile's level of quality

@Anton Hellmark pretty sure it's fl studio paid.

Neural Noise is intended to be an album of the newer stuff I am working on. And yeah, that is basically in line with what I was thinking in terms of how much to show.

A lot of times my WIP songs end up becoming parts of other songs with Amalgamation and Coalescence/Segmentation being the most obvious examples of this. Sometimes if I can't figure out a direction to take a song or am just generally unsatisfied with it, I will put it on the backburner and either come back to it later or reuse it later. Or in the 'unfortunate' cases, leave them mostly abandoned forever. I should probably go through my old stuff at some point and see what is worth salvaging.

I do not know if I am going to make "Soulless 6" currently. I have the project files for it but the community's reaction to what I see as simply a label has soured my drive to work on it a little bit. I think I might make a break from the "official" naming scheme when I decide to continue working on it. To be clear, this is more like me whining than having a legitimate complaint but it rubs me the wrong way when I am pestered about Soulless 7. I plan on it being a strange and complex song so it was already going to be a slight departure from the "Soulless series" anyways to some degree but I feel like most of my music tends to be experimenting with new ideas so maybe that's not so strange. It will happen eventually but I don't have any solid plans right now. I'll probably post "shards" of some of the key parts in it at some point in a video like this and have people try to guess what the chart will look like.

@@ExileLord That’s understandable. It really doesn’t matter if the next song you release is another Soulless or not. As long as it’s a banger, as well as having fun and creative charts. It’s also nice to see you active again.

I created it, yeah. I used some free stock images and then just kept layering / manipulating / painting them in photoshop. What I did here was very quick compared to what I did for the art for Coalescence but that's part of the fun I think. I'll add credits for the stock images when I get home. I wasn't even thinking about it until now.

@@ExileLord Damn man! Very creative!

I don't think I'm going to upload my really old stuff to Spotify. I do think it's important that they are preserved but it's not something I would want people to listen to accidentally. I find my old work embarrassing and it's not something I'd really want to show people besides as a reference point. I am slowly putting together an album though of my newer stuff. I'm trying to focus on improving and learning new things in a more focused way rather than my usual "nebulous exploration". If there are particular songs people are fond of though, I wouldn't be opposed to re-doing them. I think I'm in a better place where I could reinterpret even my more horrible sounding songs into "something".

@@ExileLord for me, your songs are the masterpiece of GH-like games. You made history, sir. Even tho you wont upload them, i need to show some love. Keep improving, you are the best. 🥰

also short unpolished pieces would always be welcome for anybody who follows you i'd reckon, since that could let your fans know you're making something new to listen to
