My words speak for themselves. I feel sick with this shame. I am so sorry for all of my lies, all of my thievery, I am so sorry for all the things I haven’t truly done. I hope you guys can someday forgive me
So yeah, just listen to the episode. I’m leaving. I originally built this around a book series inspired by hosts who have all left. Eventually I found a passion in making music, particularly in songs where I take other people’s vocals in a way inspired by the musician Evil Anvil on YouTube. But all good things must come to an end. Spotify decided to start striking down the hammer and block my music. But this time I had already started doing some things on YouTube so I can add visuals in a way that isn’t Spotify exclusive. I tried to continue to only receive the same messages, I still could add 2+ minutes of talking before each song, but why? Why make my songs less enjoyable when I have a perfect solution I already use? So I started making my projects for YouTube, very rarely posting here, and I don’t even know why I did. But about 3-ish months ago, I made the decision to leave. I didn’t want to record an episode to say goodbye, so I waited, and continued to think and work on YouTube. And now that I have posted this album, I think it’s a good enough time to officially announce that I’m leaving. And hopefully these 11 songs (some of which may or may not have been heard before) are an okay good bye gift.
You probably didn’t read that. Anyways, it’s been super fun!
Here is a link to my YouTube Channel if you wish to continue to stay up to date with my stuff:

I honestly don’t know if there is any way I can give a Universal link. Also, the album is called “Restored Ruins” I don’t know why I didn’t mention it.
Happy New Tears! How was last Tear for your? I had a very musical Tear personally.

That was fun
Same Time Next Year?
That was my wrapped. I want to point out, that the top 5 artists are either vocal samplers (like me) or people who use cool instruments in pop-like genres
For Christmas I got a 50 dollar (plus some help from my parents if what I wanted was slightly over 50) gift card to buy instruments! I bought two, the first one is the Guiro I am showing. I really like the sound of it. It was from the brand Latin Percussion, and is the Fish style. I will add a link to where I got it. But I must say, I am a happy customer!
Looking at the title, you may think “Oh no, Trustseeker is moving podcasts”. No, this is not the case. Me and a few friends started a podcast dedicated to my passion project, the Fwingsters. I also made a medley of a few older songs that are no longer canon to the Fwingster universe. I just mashed them all into the mixing cauldron and spent Thanksgiving making this. So go listen to the new stuff!

I did lick the shoe…
I honestly do not know my characters. The point of a Fwingster is to corrupt a WoF/WC Fan into monstrous forms, and make them play music. I never once looked at biology for this. We don’t know how Vocah blinks… (Unless there is a biology nerd who could provide a possible explanation) I also forgot to mention, non-Spotify people. You will have to look in my Google Drive to find Vocah’s redesign. I keep telling myself I will edit my video episodes into YouTube videos. I always forget to, so you guys don’t know what either of the Vocahseekers look like. I will link the google drive and Goose’s awesome podcast below. Also, let’s all go listen to Goose. She is REALLY entertaining. Make sure to support her second season.

You guys heard the beginning. Spotify for Podcasters (SFP) doesn’t like songs, it hasn’t gotten after me before, so I have no idea what to do. We are allowed to post songs if they have podcast, but Songs are better alone. SFP said that they reserve the right to take down podcasts that break their rule. One solution… I could make a second podcast, on the second podcast I will post the songs. Here I will tell you some behind the scene stuff. I would prefer to have a second podcast get deleted over this one.
Any ways, my thoughts on the new Fwingsters. Parroppet (definitely not Mike wasouski) is a small addition, the chorus has slightly more structure, and the 4th verse (the originally empty one, which I will call Moonbira’s verse) sounds a lot better with Parroppet. The design is nice, I’ve made better though. 6/10
Claycato has a really nice soundfont. Bright Plucked Strings on GarageBand. Every track with this guy sounds really cool. In Vocah’s Verse (after first chorus, the 3rd) the background track builds structure and fills the hole Monulele left. But in Moonbira’s verse, Claycato is godly. A really quick unique Arpeggio that just is amazing! The design could be better, but I think it is very original. As a very wise human once said, “I don’t know what else to say!” 9/10.
Sybdrah. Where do I start. Sybdrah is one of the 8 NighLucid which is cool, this means that Sybdrah is completely original and not based on any characters or podcasters. I love all of Sybdrah’s sounds, the music box in the intro is a nice relaxing touch. The vocals are some of the best I have ever done. (Vocals with an “s” I combined 4 different recordings, Sybdrah started the cool kids club in that NighLucid Contest song. Vocah joined in the first update of this song) and the music box at the end plays a similar role to Parroppet in the first chorus, just adding extra structure. Maybe I could get other monsters to play a final note so they duet to make a C Major Triad. C (Sybdrah) E and G. 10/10
Those are my thoughts. I also think it is funny how half of the votes decided to remove Maelstravox (option C) I guess my vocals were really bad 6 months ago. But thank you for reading the description.

I don’t really want to write a description, so I will instead write this and make the Spotify Cover Art a little monster thing I made of Mono. I want to do an update on that project sometime soon.

I forgot that Mono made a cool cover art for collabs between us. Whoops. I’ll fix that in the morning because it is 11:57 PM.
