Hey Newgrounds!

I'm SO excited to announce the new upcoming epic orchestral track called "Take Flight!"

It's filled with optimistic and positive energy to fly and explore beyond the horizon.

And this Sunday, it's coming to Newgrounds! The track will also be premiered on my YouTube channel right below, so if you're interested make sure to set a reminder :D

I'll see you then, aviators! o7

What's up, Newgrounds!

My inner composer IS BACK! "Deus Machina", the 'Machine God'. New epic hybrid trailer release in a year. Coming next week with better animation on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Store, Soundcloud... AND Newgrounds! I'll announce the release date once it's finalized. I'd appreciate your support!

Life update!

I’m leaving my beloved hometown, Korea, this Sunday.

For the next two years (estimated), I’ll be staying in the United States. Hopefully I’ll have a great experience I will never forget during my stay.

It’s a huge step for me — and I really appreciate your support nonetheless! I’ll be posting a lot on my Instagram, so feel free to follow me and keep in touch!

Of course, I’ll try my best to continue on working on music as well. Thanks everyone, I’ll see you soon!

Hey guys! Got some exciting news. I was involved in this amazing short film “Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Good Evening,” as a cinematographer, editor, and colorist! The biggest thing is it’s now live on YouTube so you can watch it! Make sure you check them out!

It’s my very first film as a cinematographer, as well as getting involved in a larger crew member! I had so much fun making it, as well as faced some very new challenges. But thanks to the director Andrew, my fellow crew members and friends, actors, and the support from professors, I was able to finish this great work of film. Please check it out and support us!

My track “Scars of War” was used and took part in the OUTSTANDING World Taekwondo Demonstration Team on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent”! (Played from 2:14-2:49). This is special for me as a native Korean and someone who once learned Taekwondo (I still have that rusty black belt in the corner) hahaha. They also got the golden buzzer, which is EXTRA amazing!

Please check them out!

Hey Newgrounds, fans, friends, and NG users.

I want to address this important news that I'm officially stepping away from making music. This means I won't be participating 99.9% of future projects, and I won't be releasing any more public tracks. The reason I'm making this decision is because of my continuous stress and lack of motivation genuinely as an individual artist to strive for my passion. Ever since I had to overwork on so many tracks with zero fun and passion, making music is not the same for me anymore. So I've decided to let go and take some time to heal and rebuild my own sense of thoughts and creative mind. I'm feeling good about these decisions, and I do have a good feeling I'll be coming back as a composer sometime again. But until then, I'll be always preparing a place for the return, and focus on something else I want to learn more, and expand.

Before I step out though, I want to say thank you to you, Newgrounds. You wouldn't know how much you have supported me and helped me to become the person I am today. You gave me passion and dreams as a composer -- to heal and help people with music. You proved to me that I can do something better than I thought I would be. You were my first push, the first motivation to start my career as a composer (voice actor, too). And you connected me with very first creative friends, fans, and so many people across the world.

To fans and friends, thank you so much for supporting through my incredible journey for the past few years. Since from my High School years, I've never felt happier to share my work with you, get inspired together, and feel connected. I always considered myself outsider in class -- as I never felt a lot of connection with my classmates and others. But you guys made that with me. Without ya'll, I wouldn't have been filled with so many good memories during my High School years, and even until now. You guys widened up my eyes for the bigger world, diverse culture with so many stories to tell. Thank you, and thank you.

I hate to say goodbye to Newgrounds as a composer -- but I'm always open for something else, like drawing, writing scripts, filming, voice acting (although i don't do it anymore) and so on. If you'd want me to participate in your fun project for any of these roles, please reach out to me. I'm happy to consider your projects to continue on my creative journey.

Thank you so much all for reading this long post -- and hope you're safe.

Best,

Jessie

My newest and yet the most fresh release I ever made, "Stormcaller" is out NOW! It was my very strong take to break down the unstoppable art block barriers that stood in front of me for the past 5 months.

I called in an EDM artist named Thunder Cat (who is also me) to collab -- with myself -- in mixing epic pirate music with a massive progressive house genre. I had so much fun making this, which I really wanted to feel this after such a LONG waiting. Hope everyone enjoys this, and please let me know if you want more of these kind of stuff xD

Hey Newgrounds,

I CAN’T believe I’m going to come back with a new release! It’s been quite a rough 5 months of art block to get through. But now, finally, I have decided to self collab with my other artist Thunder Cat (!!!) presenting you the epic mix of my main and novice genre. Coming soon, please stay tuned!

P.S. For the long-time well known friends and fellow composers out there, do share me your tracks in DM (either in Discord or NG) — I want to catch up on your tracks and achievements! @AceMantra @AlbeGian @Troisynx @Everratic @etheralwinds @littlemusicboy @NahuPyrope @Zelgeon @ShockblastDeluxe @siteml @SplatterDash
