VOTE FOR EPIC BATTLE FANTASY IV TO GET GREENLIT FOR STEAM!!!

No really, please do this! What would EBF IV making it onto Steam mean for me?

- An excellent addition to my portfolio!
- More sales for the music, which in turns allows me to make more music!
- More exposure and perhaps more commissions for games (and more music!)
- Possibly a shot at a job offer with one of them big companies?! (*fingers crossed*)

So really, even if you're not going to buy it on Steam, please vote it in to be Greenlit. It will mean a lot to me!

A big thanks to every single one of my fans for being awesome!

Recently I met a great guy who's in school for game design. He recently had a school project in which he had to pitch a dark Square Enix style game which featured a conflict between the new and the old generations.
I decided to help him out by writing two sample tracks for him. Check them out! :D

http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/527909

Here's the story snippet he gave me:

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Madeio yelled as he stared down the sight of his laser rifle. There
was nigh wind, and the optic piece he was wearing was calculating distance and accuracy for the shot.
Madeio just had to delay him a little more. "There's nothing I can do once you turn your back."
Evreaux just stared at him and contemplated all the choices that led to this one ultimatum. Everything
he thought he knew started to change. The corner of the city street that he now stood on wasn't a part
of his homeland, it was a lie. The concrete rubble from the ruined elevated parking lot that Poop was
hiding behind wasn't a safe area of sanction, it was disease. All of it was sickening, and it all had to stop.

They were at a stand off, and although Madeio had the higher ground, there was so much rubble that
cover was virtually everywhere in sight. Evreaux knew that the Remnants of the new generation fed him
lie after lie. For years the Remnants fought to what they called the War children from Aadhya, the dying
civilization, and despite the war-mechs and technology the Remnants had, the energy The war children
conjured from the old ones they worshipped rendered their fickle machines useless. "I'm leaving," As
Evreaux said this he swiftly rose his arm which agregated remnant technology. The metal parts around
his arm began to glisten with streams of teal colored energy as he ran towards a weathered car. Evreaux
could see Madeio shot from the corner of his eye and the lava-like shot of energy blasted the wall
beside him. Using his other arm to shield himself from the concrete shower, he shifted his torso around
the trunk of the car and fired his arm-gun, its gears and mechanisms buzzing and whirring in response.
The shells being pumped out of his arm clanged against the rusted metal plate of the car, and once
Evreaux heard an empty click of his arm-gun, he unloaded his magazine and locked another one in.

Evreaux peeked over the corner of the car and to his surprise Madeio was nowhere to be found. This
didn't make Evreaux feel any safer, yet he had to keep moving. Further and further he walked down the
city. His tattered red cloak draped behind the armor of his people, and soon he knew he'd be fighting
them. And on he went, from the crumbling city, to the drums and beating heart of the jungle.

It's been nearly a year in the making, but now it's finally here!

~Phyrnna ^_^ <3

It's been a while since I've last been active. School's been quite busy and really has been bundling me down. However, this week was spring break for me so I finally was able to catch up on Newgrounds.

So what's new?

Firstly, I decided that I needed an different artist name. I like Halcyonic Falcon X, however that was a little bit... too long. At least too long for most people to remember not to mention that most didn't know the definition of halcyonic.

So the new artist name I'll be using is Phyrnna! (pronounced Fee-err-nah) It's a name that I came up with for a character in my story, and I liked it. I was debating whether or not to create a new account by that name, but figured against it. I'd rather keep all my songs on one account. Maybe later though.... Either way, I've redesigned my profile page banner, my user icon, and my user image. I've yet to get to my forum signature... but I'll get that one soon too.

So with that done, I'm also announcing the release of my first song with my new artist name. Journey to the East is my newest song! I wrote the song for the Represent a Country 2 Contest that is being held in the Audio forums. Of course, the country I picked was China. I tried to write the song so that it sounded as Chinese as possible without having to use weird sounding instruments and oddball pitchbends. I had a lot of fun writing the song, and I'm quite proud of it too.

Unfortunately, my spring break is coming to an end as this week is nearing the weekend, and that'll mean another loooong hiatus from me. :( However, I do hope to release at least another song before I go back to the school bundles. Problem is figuring which one I want to finish.... >_>;

Well, I thank everyone who's read this, and I hope you listen to my newest song!
Thank you very much everybody!

~Phyrnna ^_^ <3

So this note is basically a little update for those who actually check my profile for updates.
School has been tiring... and busy. There's almost no time left for me to work on my music at all. Which is a killer since I have so many unfinished songs and projects.
Recently my engineering design project has taken up all of my time as I need to meet with my group members and work with them together.

But on good news, I got new equipment. :3 Namely I got myself a nice speaker system. The Logitech X-240 speaker system is really wonderful. It's not the most powerful of speaker systems out there, but for the budget I'm on it's pretty good and with a subwoofer, bass comes out great! Too bad I can only really turn it up on the weekends when the clustermates are out back home and I won't disturb them.

Secondly, and the thing that I'm much more excited that I got - were the Sennheiser HD280 Pro Closed-Back Headphones. A few Audio Portal artists have this same headphone also, and from what I read in the Audio Forum it was really great. So I decided to pull out the money to buy a pair. And it's great!! :D I really love them. And they're really comfortable. Sound quality is waaaaaaaaay better than what I can get out of my Mashmallows. :P

Well, I went about typing this update since I had a little break today. And with that little break also, I had made a new audio submission, all done in the span of today. :P
I hope you'll all enjoy listening to my newest submission: The Pianist's Journey.

Please leave your comments! :D

-HFX ^_^

I don't know how many people will read this. I hope my fans will read it whenever they come across my page.
==Anyways, long rant begin... (skip to bottom for condensed version)==

I started submitting to Newgrounds and getting into digital music production about three months ago. This was when break was nearing, and I had a lot more time. I knew that during the break, I could have gone to go work and earn some extra cash to pay for college. Which I seriously needed. I'm a good deal in debt trying to pay off college tuition and books. It's horrid. But I decided that instead of wasting my time working full time, I'd try my hand at digital music production. Before that, I had always composed using a real instrument. Namely the piano. All my pieces before hand were solely piano pieces, and I would typically compose and play them on my out of tune piano. When I first posted up music to Newgrounds, they were all bad quality recordings of my piano pieces.
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /164669
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /176188
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /184930
These songs helped me gain some fans, of which I dearly thank. My first fans were Krussi, WhiteWolf2759, and the no longer here Zellers. But these pieces didn't satisfy me. After all, listening to wonderful artists make clear sounding songs made me want to do the same. I had started lurking around the Audio Portal around January of 2008. I didn't sign up for an account though until March. It was then that I learned of this software called "Fruity Loops". So I decided to buy it. (Don't laugh, I'm legit. >:( Nyah!) Paid a good amount of money for it. I had tried to poke around in it back around April, but I gave up right there. So, fast forward back to November of 2008. Looking at my bad quality recordings, I took another look at FL Studio. That's when I started using it around the 15th of November. The result was a WIP that is no longer in my audio list. It was around then that a friend, Kazmo (my Kazmologist! :P), helped me out. He took my track and mastered it for me, being that I was the n00b who couldn't do it at the time. The result?
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /187681
Of course, I liked it, but it wasn't all my own work. Still Kaz continued to help me out, mastering some songs for me while I learned. After a while, and after some lovely Youtube tutorials, I started learning a bunch for myself. It wasn't too long afterwards that I got a song on the All Time Top 30 list.
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /190218
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /190966
Oh my gosh that made me so happy at the time. Even though my rank was something like #29 and #28, it was still an amazing honor. #28 and #29 out of all the zillions of songs on Newgrounds. Of course, that fun lasted a week. I gained more friends. And fans. It's nice, especially with the support I've gotten from all of them. It seriously motivated me to improve my technique even further.
It wasn't long afterwards that a dear friend of mine passed away. I couldn't sleep at that time, and it was hard on me. I ranted a lot about that in this note. I also redid a song as a tribute to her.
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /193146
After all of that passed by, I was once again hit into the spotlight as I found a FL Core remix that I made hitting the Top 5 spots.
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /193668
At the time I was so mixed. I seriously didn't like the song that much, as I far from considered it my best work. However, it did earn me some more fans and a little more attention also. I guess I'm kind of glad I got that Top 5, but I kind of wished it was a different song. :( Oh well, can't have it all.
After that I went on to work on more music. It was then that I found a thread in the Audio forum asking for music. It was a result of this thread that I came to write my first piece for someone's movie.
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /194778
It was nice and interesting. Having to work within constraints and with a time limit. I liked the result myself, although I thought it could have been a lot better. Nonetheless, the person who asked for the song, FateProductions, liked the song and accepted it. I was quite glad and felt good about it.
At about this time, I had a bunch of FL knowledge, and I felt that I should try stepping out of the acoustic genres into the electronic genre's. I started to play around with synths and all that lovely stuff. Result? Two WIP's.
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /195772
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /195778
I do plan on finishing this someday... but I will hold that off till I get a better hang of all the stuff that goes with electronic music. @_@ Although in my opinion, electronic music is so much harder than acoustic music. x_x
Of course, those plans will have to wait a bit. Because alas, school has started up again. Being a lovely BioEngineering major (x_x *dies*), the work load is immense, and I have to really buckle down and get into it. With that said, I won't have much time to write on FL. :( Writing songs on FL has gotten considerably easier for me now than when I started. However the time I put into each song is still far beyond my affordable capacity now that I have started school. I will however still make live recordings and post them up online. Such as this one.
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /201766
and this one.
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /201919
The second one is my favorite song. It's also my first song from four years ago. I still consider it to be my best original song. That recording itself though, was recorded at a piano recital at my university back in December of 2008. An interesting note to that, the recital was held and organized by the director of Campus Housing. Originally the recital was only open to performances by residences. But being that I wasn't one, I contacted the director and he let me in. The piano recital itself wasn't bad at all. Except at one point when the pedals fell off the piano mid-song. O_O; Either way, he was impressed by my performance, and also by the songs since I performed all of my own songs. With that, he offered me a "music scholarship" of sorts. Being the director of Campus Housing, he offered what he could: free housing. 8D Hearing that made me all sorts of happy. So I decided to take him up on the offer. So starting this semester I'll be dorming, and in a single, all paid for by him. :3 Not to mention the dorm has a really nice baby grand Suzuki, and I do plan on making lots of songs and recordings from that. A big step up from my home's out-of-tune piano. XD
I think I digressed. >_>; But what I wanted to say is that until spring break rolls around, I'll be on a hiatus for music making. I'll still be around on the forums, lurking and posting now and then. But my submission rate will be dropping significantly.
But I'm not stopping with music making. Currently I'm working on a project with this other person. The person is making an audio drama called VIAN PROJECT. It's a sci-fi/fantasy type story, filled with rather interesting characters. I'm being commissioned to write the music tracks to the audio drama, and it's great. The style for the songs is different from my typical style, but it's so fun to write it. Some of you may have gotten sneak hearings of the first track Organ Jaws. It's for a cool villain character Lucadies Desdentia. >:3 Too bad I can't post up the tracks here on NG, since I was requested not to. :( They're so great sounding too.
But overall, I enjoyed being on NG, and I look forward to returning full steam once school goes off on breaks. I hope to keep in contact with everyone here, and I'll be sure to leave some nice loooooong reviews on your songs. :3

==Rant End==

==Condensed version==
Enjoyed being on NG, taking a break. Bai bai! :D
