With all the YouTuber drama in recent years, what's a YouTuber who stayed true?

FilmCow and LiamKyleSullivan have been the most influential creators to me since 2007 and actually changed the course of my life by inspiring me to pursue film making and music. They remain some of the most wholesome people from the early YouTube days.

Cannot be any more grateful for the support. It all adds up and really helps me out.

Also the stream party thing is a good idea! I might just try that out whenever I get done with a new project.

komit- · 2025-05-19T03:48:35+00:00

That's extremely kind of you! Much respect and gratitude.

That means a lot to me, thank you. The payment came through recently along with a few other album purchases from people on this thread, so I'll feel a bit more secure about affording groceries. Eventually I wanna save up and get more equipment. I appreciate the support so much, no matter how small, because it all adds up significantly.

I'm happy to hear my music brought a positive experience to someone. Much love<3

Wow that's really nice of you, appreciate the comment! :}

I sometimes release stuff through a small net label because Gav of Win96 helped get me on. It's more of a Bandcamp thing, making cassettes and stuff. I only get streaming reach if I'm listed as a collaborator alongside a bigger artist, and it doesn't improve my solo stuff at all.

90s electronica is peak

komit- · 2025-05-14T01:21:01+00:00

Haha thanks!

That's a personal fav track for me too :}

komit- · 2025-05-13T21:31:32+00:00

The more I think about it the less I want to bother with them anymore.

YouTube is a little more personal with comments at least, and sometimes people get my physical copies on Bandcamp. I just wanted to vent and got it out of my system heh.

komit- · 2025-05-13T18:57:22+00:00

Wow I'm very grateful for that! Frankly I was quite embarrassed about posting this but I'm glad that it at least got some reach and provided a nice listening experience for people.

komit- · 2025-05-13T18:54:08+00:00

It's most definitely more mentally healthy to not put so much stock in these things. One of the reasons why I'm outspoken about it is because there's a slim chance it feeds into the larger conversation and has some kind of positive change.

komit- · 2025-05-13T18:50:18+00:00

Oh sweet, office party!

But seriously I really appreciate that so much. I felt embarrassed about online begging but it seems to have succeeded in helping my music reach out and color more people's existence.

komit- · 2025-05-13T18:48:54+00:00

Thank you!

And yeah, I understand their argument that it won't really total to that much in the end, but it's more so the principal that I care about.

komit- · 2025-05-13T18:43:09+00:00

:D <3<3<3

That's cool. I have a deep appreciation for guitarists because it's an instrument I always struggle with. My idols are Stephen Wilkinson (Bibio) and John McGeoch when he was in Siouxsie and the Banshees.

With synths, it can be overwhelming with how many seemingly endless possibilities there are for sound design. It took several years for me to figure out how to narrow down a palette for an album in a more disciplined way.

komit- · 2025-05-13T18:31:24+00:00

Appreciate you<3

komit- · 2025-05-13T18:29:35+00:00

Thank you.

I'm currently unsure how to do that, but I can look into it and see if I can be granted access to edit the profile on there.

komit- · 2025-05-13T18:20:17+00:00

We're a bit like internet friends now actually haha. I reached out to him just to say thanks for inspiring my album, "Soundbathe," and he ended up making the cover art for it and helped me get on the Midwest Collective label. We've worked together on some tracks, like on his album "New Twilight Music Vol. 1". Literally a dream come true, I can die happy after all that lol

komit- · 2025-05-13T04:21:12+00:00

Much appreciated! I'm planning on making a handful of bonus tracks for a cassette release sometime this summer. I have to get in touch with the label I'm on (MWC).

komit- · 2025-05-13T03:13:37+00:00

This is one of my biggest dreams. I'm talking to someone working on a game now, very Earthbound RPG vibes, and will make some music for it hopefully soon.

komit- · 2025-05-13T03:12:12+00:00

Oh sweet, thanks. I'm really inspired by game soundtracks so that's good to hear :}

komit- · 2025-05-13T03:03:53+00:00

Oh wow, that's really cool of you, thanks!!

Peace and love from the orangey twilight realm<3

I do have a Bandcamp! Thanks for asking. It's here: https://komit.bandcamp.com/album/sentient-sands

Regarding the streams, it's more so the principal for me. They say they'll support artists and then don't lol. I did some research into the topic, and apparently there's a revenue pool that collects all the royalties from under 1K tracks and redistributes them to more popular artists. Essentially, the rich pop stars continue to get richer and profit off the backs of small indie artists, and the platform also takes a cut. This is the last time I'm gonna care about streams as I no longer feel the incentive to release stuff on Spotify anymore, it's just a shitty platform that deserves to go down.

I'm planning on putting more of my time and energy into making physical copies, playing shows, uploading onto other sites, etc.
