my life story i guess

[Jonah]

aaaaa

[Jonah]

First sequence I made on this site was ##221985

title is accurate. i had no concept of rhythm, or really anything. I had already played piano for awhile, so you'd expect it to maybe be slightly better, but no.
heres a thread containing all my original garbage i made mostly on the first day here. https://onlinesequencer.net/forum/showth...hp?tid=659

##222378

This was the first song I was actually proud of, made on my 2nd day here. still before I understood what bars were and what they were used for.

##222886

Here's another song I made on my second day, a few sequences after the last one though, I was also really proud of this one for a while. You can follow the inspired links to find the most recent version I made two months after the original was made.

##229702

This was made about a week or two later. I don't consider this very important to my growth, but somehow it has remained one of my most popular sequences .

##235270

this appeared almost a month after finding this site. It has had one of the biggest influences on me, music-wise. Mainly, the bar was set higher. After this I started making sequences a lot slower, because it was more of a quality over quantity thing happening in my mind. Another important thing about this is that fast forward about a year and this is remade in FL studio and released as the first song on my soundcloud, Hiroshima

##240649

this was exactly 1 month after i found the site, and it somehow became my most popular sequence. i dont like this sequence, or consider it really important aside from that.

##252964

this is the next important song, another bar raiser. at least at the time. now, i consider year cascade as higher quality, although much more time and effort went into devils stare

##296454

here's another big one. this was one of the first, if not the first, song i wrote after the death of my brother. it was later renamed to Frost, idk, probably abandonded by now. this was around the start of my downward spiral into inactivity/writersblock   also this + Tensei - Heir of greif are what got me into making greif-ish music

##375081

this song came into existence about 4 months later and was written late christmas night 2016, because I got FL studio as my present and thought I would leave OS. (Spoiler alert, never left)
soon after this song was when the chat became active, and was really pleasant. before that, it wouldnt really be surprising if you just post once and it stayed there for a day.

##420736

Here's a midi import of my first real FL studio song, as you can see it's really bad. became even worse on soundcloud as Doomsday Counter

##468830

midi import of a slightly earlier version of my song Seattle
Wasn't very important OS-wise but has actually had a big influence on my FL studio stuff. It has also remained one of the most endearing songs to me on my soundcloud, despite most people saying that some of my other songs are better, or outright upgrades of this songs.

Don't want to post any more midi imports because they're boring, and we're here for OS. Anyway, the stuff you'll miss by doing that is my transition from "all over the place music" to "mostly EDM-ish stuff"

##732757

Quite a while later (as evidenced by the IDs) is when I started to make my great return to OS. this wasnt the first, but one of them. It's been almost a year since my last real sequence on OS. I've been on a long journey. I've gone through Fl song exchange forums, forged great diccsords, entered contests against people who, contrary to me, actually knew what fucc they were doing and finally achieved just shy of a thousand plays on soundcloud. I've gained minimal great wisdom, and more importantly, I've seen some sht. It's time to visit home.

so yeah, i made my return, maybe someone noticed i was gone, idrk.

##739224

here's another song I made soon after my return. about the nostalgia of being back on OS. (sidenote, dont be surprised if i get into more detail around here, after all this is where stuff gets recent.)

##766894

like 2 monthsish ago I started to get into an artist called snail's house. this is the first song I think I really express that.

##764528

a while after that I made my first real post world update song, Evergreen. made S-class, but didn't deserve it imho.

##808390

Next is another world update S-tier, crying over spilled coffee. I feel like this song does deserve S-tier, but doesn't really deserve votes, compared to the other sequences. This is where my inner future bass starts to show.

##823036

This is where I first started to get into that ambient thing Wafels started. This isnt really a good song imo, but I've reused the ambients a lot

##847234

Currently I consider this as my #1 sequence. Just has less flaws than my other sequences.

##848451

And now I leave you off with a depressing note. I wrote this a couple days ago when I was actually considering ending my life. Relax, I'm fine now.


anyway, thats it.

In February 2002, before a lot of the people here were alive, I was in Ms. Carolyn Teig's 3rd grade class in Bellingham, Washington. Later that year my mom bought me a program off the Scholastic Book Order that let you make games. In 2006 I joined a forum that was about making computer games. From there I learned about programming. Eventually in 2013 I made this website and in 2015 I got a job which allowed me to make money to keep it running.
