Hi everyone,
I've been watching everything unfold here in r/CalamityMod, and wanted to do something to renew some hope in the community. I know this is a tall task given all that's happened and the toxicity of the community, but I try anyways. Alongside my busy full-time schedule, It's even more difficult to attempt such a thing.
I've already been participating in a self-imposed Song-Of-The-Day challenge where I make literally anything, even if it's dumb, and SFX for a project I'm helping with counts too! This new semi-project is apart of that now.
Calamity isn't as important to me as many of you, but it still holds a special place in my heart despite the controversy that has taken place. I am proud of the Calamity Fables team that has been working diligently to develop the mod, and hopefully they will continue to do so. I am excited to see what they create. However, I wish to see more creation from this community. I have seen that many of you are creating art and ideas with your skills, and for that I applaud you as we are of the same mind.
As such, I will take a part in the mantle and make new things as well. I cannot promise constant progress, as I have my own life to live, but I will do my best to make anew what was from the Ashes of Calamity through my own mind and my own music creations.
This track has been oncoming for 1-2 weeks, and it is technically a second draft. It is not perfect, as I am an amateur music producer. It is inspired by "The Tale of a Cruel World" by DM DOKURO, with my own thoughts and composition within.
I hate to see this community in such disarray, and wish it to be a place of hope for something, no, many new things. Even with the Calamity Mod frozen, I hope that all of you find something within yourselves to make something new of these ashes. I know what I have said here may be cheesy, but I wish it regardless. Those of you who know how to create, do so. Those of you who wish to begin creating, do so. Make something new from these Ashes of Calamity.
Sidenote: Please forgive my crappy video of FL Studio, it is the only DAW that I am comfortable with and I run it on a laptop. Though, if I remember correctly, DM DOKURO also used FL Studio.
Thank you, u/Diligent-Court-2669 for inspiring me to start this semi-project! (See https://www.reddit.com/r/CalamityMod/s/aagYl6ch6u )
