“A dronish electronic beat with a lot of variety sprinkled in to keep it interesting throughout its 6 minute length. Creating it on an obsolete DAW to more accurately capture the Y2K vibes deserves huge Kudos!” -SubaBubba

Sharing good things about NG goes a long way to seeing more of what you want to see around here. I don’t think there was anything on the Internet in June that topped Low Poly Day, which makes it really encouraging to have events like this in the future.
Speaking of events, the annual NG Audio Deathmatch has begun. Thanks for reading!
