With a forlorn sigh I must tell you some bad news. As much as I love this blog, it’s become too much for me to handle, to the point where my schoolwork is suffering because of it. Now, this doesn’t mean that I’m giving up on blogging, I enjoy it enough that I’ve decided to switch things up.
Now, instead of weekly installations of free music, I’ll be posting a song or two each day, some from The Downplayer and others from my ever-growing collection. The movie reviews will (hopefully) be continued on my personal blog. So, in closing, I’m glad that I was able to get a good couple months of music for you, and know that while the blogging will stop, the music will remain.
Starting tomorrow, music will be found on kickbacks and movie reviews on Aidiera. Thanks for your interaction, and I hope you choose to follow me still. <3
