"Why? Exactly."

Hello, traveler. Backstory is important here. The reason I make music is because my cousin inspired me. We discovered Noteworthy Composer around 2004 to 2005. It's very basic notation software that was already ancient even back then, but it has all the tools one needs to write MIDIs. Gosh, we were just kids back then when we made this. 

Daniel was my cousin, my mentor, and my friend. We grew up together, we worked together, we played together. As a kid, I thought the world of him. He wasn't much older than me, but I still looked up to him like a big brother. I wanted to make songs just like he did. We both got our start with Mario Paint's music composer on SNES, and went on to Noteworthy Composer, which I still use to this day. We collaborated and uploaded tracks to MySpace way back when. And though we went down separate paths in life, he never stopped inspiring me, and he never stopped creating music. We were always close, even when he was across the country. I'd send MIDIs his way and he'd remix them. Music connected us.

He had a hard life. He lost his father to cancer, he lost his home, his job, all within a year or two. And through his misfortune, he still managed to be hopeful toward the end. He told me just a week ago that he was suicidal at one point, but that part of his life was over. He had just gotten a new job at Yellow Stone National Park and was so excited about going. He was even bringing his guitar and his laptop to write music while he was there. As far as I know, he never got to write anything. Not long after arriving, he had a heart attack and while in the hospital he had a stroke. He was only 28 years old.

This album is kind of cringe, but we thought it was pretty great at the time. All tracks were written with Noteworthy Composer and another program. I think it was called WavePad or something generic. We burned a handful of CDs, which is the only reason any of these tracks have survived the test of time. In pre-YouTube times we shared music to MySpace, so most songs from around this time are lost. I still have them in my head, so maybe I'll re-write them one day.
