As it begins, so it ends. I played (probably) my last laptop battle tonight, and just like my first, I lost early to the person who won it all. This time it was the up-and-comer "m.0", instead of the seasoned veteran Moon, and this time I was the reigning champion instead of "just some dude off the street." Surprisingly, it was still more similar than different.

The nice news is that my friend Dave got to the finals and will have a chance to represent Seattle at the national battle as a result. All through the battle he performed tracks that we'd written jointly, so in a way my music continued to move the crowd even as I stepped aside. This was a good way for things to turn out, and a fitting close for this chapter in my musical endeavors.

Next project: peaceful music.
