As you can tell from the title, I have decided to hold off the projects mainly for the lack of motivation and inspiration. I mean, that's it really...

I don't have any excuses for you, to be honest. Just give me time.

Until then, it is goodbye.

Hey, it's been a while! I said all of that stuff in my previous post where I was going to make music for 2021 (besides Indifference) but quite frankly, I'm not too proud with the progress I have made during that time. I just had nothing substantial to put out there that can express what I feel in the duration of my time in 2021. And because I had nothing to express, I also had no drive or inspiration to even finish any of my projects for last year.

Well, I suppose I have been away for almost half a year during that time, honestly don't blame me. If you subtract my free time to my school work time, I would almost have no time to complete all of my current projects, let alone release an album with at least 2-3 songs.

Anyhow, I'm not here to just apologize, but I actually have something to announce!

A NEW PROJECT! To be more precise, two albums!

This is mainly to make it up for not being able to release an album last year, and because I can. The first album is called Shackles, consisting of three songs. Second album will not be revealed yet, but I will say that I plan it to have 6 songs in it. This is subject to change depending on my allotted time for this year.

Here's the reveal for the album covers. Second album cover is blurred because I don't want to reveal too much. :P

I've been on unannounced hiatus for a while now, I was busy with schoolwork and some other stuff in the background mainly to prepare some things, my come back to Newgrounds also being a part of it.

Speaking of "some other stuff in the background", I finally have my own workspace! That's right! The only reason I have been inactive for so long, rather somewhat inconsistent with my stuff is because my comfort zone and workspace were in the same area, which led to me procrastinating most of my time.

I had the idea of revamping my brother's room to a workspace instead because it is always such a mess. And not to mention, he's rarely home the whole day. Although it took a long time because my parents were not home at the time.

But anyhow, I finally have my own work environment to pull me out of my comfort zone from time to time. Ever since the quarantine lockdown, I have stayed way too comfortable in my zone. So this is definitely a good change of pace

Regarding my activity, I will try to do my stuff at my own pace in order for things to become spontaneous. But, you can expect that I will be uploading stuff soon!

It's great to be back, cya soon!

So, apparently, I've already been scouted before by someone. I have no idea who did, but thank you. I'm guessing it might've been one of the judges from NGUAC. And yes, I entered this year's NGUAC. I didn't make it to the second round though, unfortunately.

But, that means I'm qualified to be on the Geometry Dash whitelist! I've recently messaged a GD moderator to whitelist my songs to be used for the game. You are now allowed to freely use my music exclusively for GD! Have fun creating levels fellow Dashers!

On a side note, I promise I will release more songs soon after my schedule has been fixed as I'm pretty busy with online classes now. So stay tuned for that!

I've made a very big decision for me and thought of letting go of the name, reishirou.

I'm terrible at letting things go and I end up sentimentalizing them lol, hence i ended up with two names.

I will go under the name oneleiz from now on, and I will be looking forward to making more music.

Cheers.

I've been off listening to different kinds of genre and experimenting on what I can make do with, and I think i'm ready to come back and make more songs. And there's the COVID-19 and quarantine lockdown.

I'm not forcing myself, don't worry. I feel like making music again.

EDIT: just so you know i will get supporter and change my username when i get my card usable pretty much anywhere, i just can't now

After being a music producer for almost a year, I came to the conclusion that i can't make music anymore. I have no motivation for it anymore. I don't have the skills nor dedication to keep this up. I am saying this not because I haven't been getting any attention lately and decided to write this as to get attention, but because I wanted to share this at least to the few people who follow me. It's been frustrating giving my best to get something out whilst getting little to no attention whatsoever.

As a final gift, I will release two secret projects I've been working on since January. I hope you'll like these one!

As for my music career, I will come back once I've managed to learn more about music. Thank you for everything.

EDIT: If you see me upload songs again, that only means I'm finishing my remaining projects. Thank you for understanding.

Hi, my name is James or under my aliases, 1Leiz (main username) and Reishiro (current producer name, formerly iChrono21). I hope you like my arts, and enjoy my music! Feel free to request something. But if i ever deny that request, please understand as i'm not really professional on both.

Most of my arts are in my DeviantArt page which you can find on the left side. While for my music, i post previews on Clyp which you can also find in the left side.

As of for games & movies, those are yet to be learned. Stay tuned for future stuff!
