This Week's Song (Free Early Download)
This one is not a charged post, as it was more of a fun/funny experiment. I...managed to make a song out of the metal pip falling SFX. Here you go :'D
2023-09-23 14:50:58 +0000 UTC View PostThis Week's Song (Free Early Download)
This is the next song for my "Making a Jrpg Soundtrack" series. It's basically the prologue/story-telling section where the world is introduced (with some other things). I'm trying to edit the video for this one for tomorrow, so hopefully things go well! I hope you enjoy!
2023-09-15 18:39:32 +0000 UTC View PostSecond Update: Request Guitar Tabs for my Originals!
Are there any guitar tabs you've wanted for my songs that aren't available? Feel free to request them in the comments here (or on the Patreon channel in my Discord if you have the role)!
2023-09-15 09:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostPlans for this month! (September 2023)
Things have gotten in the way due to some scheduling and medical stuff, but the content shall be flowing this month!
I have a few new originals planned for this month, and you will recieve them before the videos go up (for free, of course)
- I made a song that is super inspired by Hiroyuki Sawano's work (a first...
(3/3) Aralia - Shady Cicada
This one surprised me. I was alreayd pretty happy with this song (it took 18 mixes to get this one right), but seeing all the feedback has only made me feel better about it. I'm incredibly happy to hear that this is a new favorite amongst many in the community!
To those who don't know: This song is part of a project t...
(2/3) Disco Devil - Shady Cicada
10 minute challenges return! And of course, whenever I have extra time, I like to turn the challenges into full blown songs! This one came out pretty groovy in the end, and I'm very happy with the result! Stay groovin'.
2023-08-31 21:12:07 +0000 UTC View Post(1/3) Gates of Order - Shady Cicada
A new metal/boss type theme from me! So happy with how this one came out. It took a lot of time to get all of the instruments singing and meshing well together, but I'd say the overall arrangement was a success! Definitely a fave of mine this year (:

2023-08-31 20:13:24 +0000 UTC View PostRewards are coming before the end of this month!
Free song downloads, backing tracks, stems, and possibly a guitar tab for "Gates of Order"!
I'll also start stating video ideas/plans for September if I finalize them proper (:
This page is starting up again. Rewards are finally returning this month! I will be re-adding everyone (old and new) to the Google Drive tonight. All $5+ patrons will have access by tomorrow.
I'm also brainstorming new rewards to add! I will also be changing reward descriptions to make things more clear. Hang tight!
2023-08-17 05:53:07 +0000 UTC View PostPatreon activity will finally resume soon. Considering some changes and taking suggestions!
This page has been inactive for a bit (mainly due to the YouTube content being inactive). I'm thinking of a few changes to make things more manageable (example: an easier way to invite people to the Google Drive instead of manually handling emails one by one).
Thinking of new types of rewards as well. Any suggestions a...
HUGE UPDATE/COMPLETE POTENTIAL OVERHAUL (All Patrons Please Read)
The way this page functions depends on my output of YouTube content. It's been over half a year now since I've uploaded anything (due to work, commissions, and other aspects of life). Due to this busy schedule, it's been hard to maintain this channel the way I want to. It's also gotten tougher to manually invite every patron ...
2023-05-28 13:25:15 +0000 UTC View Post"Body of Thorns" - Shady Cicada (1/1)
I planned to make more music this month, but I suffered some insane burnout due to other work. That being said, I'm incredibly happy I was able to release this track, as it's a big favorite of mine. And I'm even more happy that my viewers and listeners liked it so much. I look forward to making more for you guys when I return...

Here it is! I've teased it a little here and there, but I finally have the full track for you. Hope you enjoy!
2022-11-04 13:30:57 +0000 UTC View PostPlans for this week/month! (Update) (Rewards coming in a few minutes)
Hello! Yes, I am back for a bit and that means...content and rewards! So here we go with the updates:
- There will be a brand new song tomorrow (this Saturday) and it's a personal favorite. A download link to the song, it's backing track, and stems will be available today!
- I'm planning 1 or 2 more originals for ...
2022-11-04 13:29:24 +0000 UTC View PostUPDATE: I'm aiming to release videos and content in November!
It's pretty much as the title says! Things should be freeing up for me after October, so expect some content here and there. Thank you all once again for being so patient. It's genuinely insane that this page continues to stay at the same level or grow, despite my absense. I can't tell you how much that means to me. I'll be s...
2022-10-17 12:05:48 +0000 UTC View PostUPDATE - Content/Rewards should be returning late August - early September!
If everything (hopefully) works out, there should be content and rewards coming again soon!I originally planned to take this entire month off, but part of me feels like getting a little work done. So we shall see! I've also been accepting some commissions that I may be able to release as content (with permission of cour...
2022-08-14 05:27:22 +0000 UTC View PostSong Preview!
This started off as a random practice/throwaway idea, but it slowly started shaping into someting more and more enjoyable. This is still a rough preview (and I'm not showing the main chorus part yet, despite it being the bet part IMO), but I plan to have the whole thing downloadable for you guys once its done! Even if I don't...
2022-08-01 02:16:52 +0000 UTC View Post"Long Shot" - Shady Cicada (3/3)
And here it is! Probably my favorite song I've made all year (so far). I thought this would be a great one to end the month with, and it's another one that had great reception. It was nice seeing every video this month be a "hit", honestly. Thank you all so much for the support. I have many more tunes on the way. I just need ...
2022-08-01 02:12:29 +0000 UTC View Post"Our Sin" - Shady Cicada (2/3)
A song that started off as a minor villain-type theme during a stream. It ended up becoming so special to me that I decided to (maybe) include in the Project LUCA game idea (: I did not think I'd have that much fun with a constant chromatic rise in the rhythm, but thats the great part about music and art as a whole. You can j...
2022-08-01 02:05:38 +0000 UTC View Post"Lumi" - Shady Cicada (1/3)
This commission ended up being incredibly fun to make. I did not expect the reception it got, as it was a first-ish attempt at this kind of style. Thank you all for the kind words (: I hope you enjoyed the good vibes that were packed in!
