Sawdust's News

A little bit of backstory first.


I used to hang out here literally ALL DAY when I was a kid, like I made this account when I was 11 lol (underage b&). I met a lot of really interesting people here and learned so much about pop culture and internet culture and for better or worse, Newgrounds was a huge part of my formative years lol. Eventually I got into high school and started connecting more with the real world and started on my adventures there, and eventually I just stopped using Newgrounds altogether.


Seeing this website still thriving the way it is today is such a beautiful thing to see. There probably isn't a better place for artists out there on the internet, especially ones without the privilege of having an established IRL network. Hats off to TomFulp and everyone else for keeping the dream alive!!


But yeah, I'd like to take the opportunity to share my upcoming album here. You can order it on bandcamp here! I'll be updating this post with the Spotify link soon as well. This album was very much just me revisiting my childhood and teen years, and Newgrounds was a gigantic part of all that. Again, thanks to all you guys for keeping the community alive!!! Cheers :D


Here's the cover art by the way. Commissioned the wonderful and talented LucyFuchs for the anime art of me lol. Check her stuff out!! It's great. Anyway that was a lot of words lol hope you enjoy the album and keep on rockin' in the free world everybody

Here's to part 2 of My Adventures On The Internet.

Hello again.

Check it out, a collection of talented musicians from my school (including myself, heheheh) came together and recorded an album! Download it for free on bandcamp right here.

On a side note, holy shit, I've been on this website for FIVE FUCKING YEARS...

So now my band's got the songs, and all we need to do now is work on the instrumentation and milk the shit out of the existing songs. Here's the demo so far.

And here's our Facebook page. Go like us.

Mmmhm. Tell me what you think.

Stage 2 of making the album


Posted by Sawdust - May 26th, 2011


You may or may not have heard the tracks from this already. Nevertheless, I still think it's a worthwhile listen. A worthwhile DOWNLOAD, even.

As for my band, we're still working on the demo EP. But while you're waiting for that, why not listen to my solo effort? :D

Here's a link.

Enjoy!

Got an album out


Posted by Sawdust - April 17th, 2011


My band has begun work on its ABSOLUTE FIRST demo EP.

No title yet, but for now it's an eponymous release. I intend on releasing a song or two on the AP, and I'll post the complete downloadable release on my Soundcloud account. For free, of course.

I have a song up that will appear on the EP already on Newgrounds, it's called Tomorrow In Bloom. It'll be rerecorded for the EP of course. So check it out! Think of it as a teaser to more songs to come! If you like it, like my band on Facebook. The reason there are so little fans are because I simply have chosen not to spread it to my friends since we haven't gigged or finished the EP yet, but for our potential fans who I know by neither face or name, like us on FB to keep updated!

My band is called Block Monkeys, by the way. I am its principal songwriter, lyricist, guitarist and singer. I also made the album art. Tell me what you think! Your insight could potentially change HOW THIS RELEASE WILL SOUND! So stay tuned, children.

YES.

Block Monkeys?

Hello, kiddies.

Once again, it's summer for me, and I need some projects. What I have in mind are:

Teach guitars basics to kids
Make a flash
PARTY
Make a symphony
PARTY
Record a song with my band
Start and maintain a webcomic
Update my blog
Finish at least 3 video games
PARTY
Write at least 5 short stories

Hmm. What a list. What do you fellows think of this?

More importantly, should I stick with this band name?

Summer Projects

It's everywhere.

I really need a girlfriend or something.


Posted by Sawdust - December 14th, 2010


An album you say? Why that's not a very bad idea at all.

Holy Shit.

Got it a few weeks ago, but now I can give a demo of it! You can hear it in my cover of Blackbird and my song Xerxes. And in this demo:

I love it. Samick Royale RL-2. Greg Bennett Design. Beautiful guitar, sounds mammoth even on a plain 30W solid state amp. Super clear notes. Okay sustain. Gorgeous, round tone. Neck is a wonder to hold. Tuners are awesome. I love it. Love the finish too. Here's a pic.
