So no, I have not disappeared or died.

I've been really busy lately. I graduated from college, I moved to Ottawa, I got a new job, and now that XNA has been released.. well I have very little time for stuff.

I put a stop to my flash project for now because I'm planning to make an Xbox live title. It's going to take forever but I'm doing the music and programming for it myself.

Which means, yes I am making music still and yes I will submit it on newgrounds for you guys to check out.

Most of it is in the guitar vs. piano style. That's right, everyone who has been asking me to make another one... well there you go. I have many songs on the go right now and I would show you snippets of them but I don't want to crowd the internet with works in progress so you will just have to wait. I don't make money for doing any of this so it can be hard to find the time. Maybe I should take donations? nah ...

I want to shout out to all my 'fans' (I know I'm not famous or anything). You guys are all awesome and I read every single review I get. I just don't reply often because I'm busy with stuff and blah blah but I promise they are all appreciated. There's only so many ways I can say thank you before I have to start copy and pasting.

So thank you. I now have 800 (EDIT if i get to 1000 I'll buy you all a beer) of you with me in your favorite artist section and I have checked all of your profiles out. Some of you don't have anything in them so thanks for wasting my precious finger clicking time. Join the cool people and make a profile.

So with that said, keep an ear out for new stuff soon (for real this time).. uhh eat your broccoli because it's delicious... Drink a beer for me and.. Asian chicks forever.

By the way my PS3 account name is Goukisan surprise surprise. Add me if you need an ass kicking in street fighter HD remix when it comes out.

Hey people who happen across this message.

I've been getting a shit tonne of reviews lately so I figured I would make a message here to thank everyone for the kind words because its hard to find time now to reply individually. And I feel bad if I only respond to a couple and not all of them.

So uh... thanks!

And now to a little question and answer:

People often ask me the same questions so here is my little pretend interview (with myself) to answer some of them.

Q) So Gouki, GvP rocks my socks.. how did you make it?

A) Good question!.. I use FLStudio and Reason to make my chunes. But GvP was done entirely with FLStudio.

Q) Sooo.. does that mean you didn't actually play the guitar part?

A) That's right.. I do play Guitar a little bit, but I could never play GvP for real, in fact I think it's not humanly possible. I used a Guitar Plugin.

Q) Not humanly possible huh? I bet you I can play it.. can I have the tabs?

A) NO!!! I don't have tabs for it because it is not meant to be played on an actual guitar.. sorry.

Q) Welllll... can I have the original FLStudio file so I can figure out how you did it?

A) NO!!! Sorry, I don't give out my stuff but I would be happy to give tips and maybe make some simple demo files for you to check out. (Actually some people have sent me remakes they have made and some of those were amazingly close to the real thing so you shouldn't need my files! :P )

Q) I'm not sure I like you much anymore Gouki

A) Oh good can you leave now then? You smell like ass.
