    The Hamster Alliance , Hard to believe this song has been out a year, really. I remember being blown away when I found this; this is still my favorite song of the many of yours I heard.
    This one has stuck with me. You dropped this last year at a unique time in my life; with everything that was going on, family drama, new friends and experiences, finishing up high school... this song was like a mental release for me. "Whst This Could Be" had me when that came out in November of '13, but this song was different.
    I listen to it now... it's been a rough year as a college freshman (more-so this semester), mentally speaking. I've been in a funk. I'm definitely not who I was a year ago, for sure. I listen to this song... and it's such a masterpiece that it time capsules me back to last spring. It reminds me that nothing lasts forever. Elementary school friendships didn't last into middle school, middle school friendships didn't last into high school... Maybe I got to thinking that what I built towards the end of high school, as far as friends and a club and what not, could never die. I've spent a lot of this year missing that, because it had indeed died.
    But I realize now, it was supposed to. I was supposed to "depart" from that chapter of my life, and begin the next. 9th and 10th grade weren't the greatest, but things started turning and changing my junior and senior years. 9th and 10th were transition, preparing me for my junior and senior years. I got to enjoying the life I was living, maybe so much so that it was hard to walk away from it.
    I see now, what I'm in is another point of transition. Some of my decisions this semester, past and current, probably aren't the best for me. The fact that I'm writing this at 2:51 in the morning nay be one of them. But it's a time of change. I'm still trying to find footing in this new terrain. I've felt pretty hopeless lately, that I'm not who I used to be, that things won't ever be the same for me again.
    But I'm wrong with that. When I do find my footing, which maybe that is when I switch into a Film / Video Studies major (from Computer Science) next semester, things can get better. They won't be the same, but they're not supposed to. Life is meant to be an everchanging compilation, not a single track on repeat. There are simply just times in our lives where we're supposed to depart from our past and start over, because there's a new path from the Start Soot to take.
    Jamez, I've known of you since summer of 2009, when my friend on Xbox introduced me to EZMuze+ Hamst3r Edition. It wasn't until March 2011 (when I got an iPod touch) that I browsed the internet and found your selfmade music (started on "Neurotransmitter Decay"). I've since followed the music, the ezmuze progression, the updates, the websites, 2.0, your game videos, the channel updates, the Music Archive channel...
    First, I wanna say, looking back, I want you to know it meant a hell of a lot to me for you to answer back to my interests of sheet musuc for "Departures" or "What This Could Be", or listening to and giving some feedback on the song me and two of my friends made on FL Studio last summer, or just replying to my comments in your site's ShoutBox, or even checking out some of my videos a while back. That meant, and still means the world to me that you gave me anytime of your day.
    But second, and more importantly, I want to thank you. I thank you for everything you've done. You don't know it, but you've been a huge inspiration and made a huge influence in my life. It's your music that has given me the desire to learn the trade someday, maybe as an elective class. It's your work on the EZMuze games that had given me a reason to become active on RUclips and fall in love with making videos. It's your will and effort that's given me strength to pursue things bigger than myself.
    I owe a lot to you Ham, you really have shaped my young life, believe it or not, and given me inspjration as I've grown up a bit more to be daring and chase what I want because why not. Your music has given me strength in some of my lowest times. Thank you for everything you've done, my life wouldn't be the same if not for you.
    Sorry for the tangent, but it was on my mind. Now, I must "depart" to my nice, comfy bed, as it is now 3:30a.m.
    I can't wait to see you back at working your magic. Until then, take care my man.

      Thanks, Sean! What you wrote means a lot to me, it's nice to know when the stuff I make is able to reach people, and when it has the potential to affect their lives.
      Life is indeed an ever-changing compilation. Whenever I think back on my life there's really no sense to be made of any of it, and there's no clear thread stringing all of the events together. Every 5 to 10 years it's like I'm living a completely different life. 5 years from now, who knows.
      Anyway, I hope you find your way and are able to accomplish whatever it is you set out to do. Hopefully I'll also get back on my feet sometime soon here so that I can resume making RUclips videos and whatnot.
      Until then, thanks for your message, it was nice to read. Now, I must resume assaulting my senses with anime. See ya!

    Blown away as always... your melodies are so beautifully and perfectly crafted, no exception here. I recognize the guitar as the song fades at lilke 4:22 was in "At Last". Some of the chimes sound like they were in EZMuze 2.
    Please never stop making music. Even if you're 73. Never stop

    • @hamsteralliance
      @hamsteralliance  10 лет назад

      Thanks! You're spot on with those observations too; the guitar is the same setup from At Last and the chimes are indeed the same set used in Ezmuze 2. :)

      The Hamster Alliance haha yay i was right! Woo!
      Question: do you happen to have (or are you able to make) piano sheet music of this track? Again, this song is literally blowing my mind at the moment.

    • @hamsteralliance
      @hamsteralliance  10 лет назад

      Railblade74 I've emailed you the sheet music for this track. :)

      It's so weird that the guy from NL's Guess Who game happened to like a tune I listened to because of a re-link from Giant Bomb. The Internet is awesome, and I'm totally not stoned...

    I definitely love this song. I am more a fan of Passing Through You, but this is still incredible. Please don't stop making this music, Hamts3r.

      Nah, all of the guitars were sequenced on the computer for this track. :)
