The time has finally arrived – I'm releasing my 100th MOULE release!!
I can't believe how fast the time flew since January 1, 2020, when I started out on Bandcamp and Twitter, very anxious about publishing my creative works online. Now, I'm branching out to new places and meeting even more amazing and talented people, as I enter my fifth year of releasing music and artworks.
As I celebrate my 100th release, I would like to express my infinite gratitude to everyone who has supported me, my music, my art, and the ongoing MOULE WORLD worldbuilding project so far.
This milestone is just the first of many crescendos in this multi-genre roller coaster! There's gonna be a LOT more twists and turns in the MOULE WORLD, so buckle up, hold on tight, and Enjoy the Ride!
This track was undoubtedly my most hardest I've ever made. Beginning on October 12 after finishing my 98th and 99th releases, it involved me gathering MIDI melodies and samples from all 99 of my releases before this one and putting them in a single Logic Pro file. Then I arranged them so tunes with similar melodies, tempos, and instruments were grouped closer together. This resulted in 242 tracks in my Logic Pro file and at one point I wrote on Mastodon I'd given up on this track to work on a smaller, more celebratory tune.
Throughout late October, though, I picked up this track again and worked on bits at a time daily to prevent me getting burnt out. The 242 tracks eventually became 157 and, after lots of listening over and over again, scrolling up and down this giant Logic Pro file, I got it finished on October 28th!
You can see my comments while I worked on this track that I posted on my Mastodon server here: mastodon.moule.world/@MOULE/111249017625923609

As for the cover artwork, it was planned to be a very huge collage of elements from all my cover artworks and all the MOULE WORLD characters re-enacting scenes in them all in one scene, though I scrapped the idea in favour of a more simpler design: the MOULE logo, but composed out of all 100 of my tracks' titles. It also symbolises what would become of the 100th track itself, with bits of the 99 previous releases mixed within it.
Another design I had in mind was a picture of MOULE sitting in front of a white sparkly background with a present smiling, and for this track to be called "Thank You". I scrapped that idea too since I wanted my 100th release to have a very special, unique, celebratory cover artwork that was more complicated than that.
As it's a mini-mix of every track and due to its 20-minute length (triple the length of what I usually make), I'm pricing this at $3 instead of the usual $1. Let me know what you think on the Fediverse by tagging me @MOULE@moule.world, or get in contact via email!
