What an awesome coincidence with that The Strokes release though. :D The best possible way that could've gone is: you could've used it as additional promo and hype for your own EP somehow! Seems like a possible attention boost kind of situation for your own work.
Albums: honestly felt a little disappointed with RTJ4. I wonder if they didn't rush it a bit when covid came along, to give something to the fans at the biggest time of turmoil, and though I do appreciate that... I just can't get into this one as much as I could with RTJ 1-3. :/ Tis a shame. Felt the same about Action Bronson's Music For Dolphins. Just felt rushed. As for the rest: haven't heard of any but they do sound intriguing... been listening to a lot of MGK and YUNGBLUD myself. Good-mood inducing music at times like this; feels like they're reviving punk rock a bit at the same time.
Post overall: overall feels like you managed way more with this year than I did. :) Thanks for that review mention. I always feel like I'm not nearly as active here as I want to be - haven't tuned into a single NGP episode since the start of the year I think - but just ain't no stopping time. Maybe 2021. Also feeling a bit overworked for similar reasons but going by the rest of the post you probably overwork me plenty with the overwork too. XD
May the tides all turn soon though and productivity levels stay high regardless! Been fun to tune into the few of the above things I did tune into this year; maybe I'll catch up on some more of it down the line.

This year felt pretty sour for the most part, but there were definitely some nice notes spread around. Was a blast to work on World War Wizards with you though, and all the little games you made here and there had some interesting ideas, especially Chucan Fall which I admit I got really into for a little bit, heh
Also your advent song was a little bit out there, but it definitely grew on me. I think songs that have a groove are great but when a song throws a curveball at you and delays the timing of some beats it makes for something way more interesting. There's a kind of personal reward you get from songs like that, listen to them for a bit and you can jam with it from start to finish.
For me creatively speaking, things were good, reaching out to people to collaborate is always a bit difficult for too many reasons to name, but it was great to have @Chdonga and @LuckoDaStars along with me on that Elon animation. Was also cool to work with Chdonga again on @KnoseDoge 's game for the Tankmas Adventure game. And besides WWW, the last biiig thing I was a part of was a Vinesauce reanimated collab hosted by @BeardedJames which was a blast to work on as well. Overall I'm pretty satisfied with my output and I hope to top that next year.
Maybe I'm being too optimistic with those vaccines that recently started coming out but I feel things might be finally turning around for the better, guess we can only hope tho..

Thanks! Yeah, I am hopeful too. Hopefully this comment doesn't age like milk, but I feel like things will turn around soon too.
