It's done. I have it in my hand now, and it's a completely different feeling. Before the album was an abstract thing stuck on my hard drive, but now it's in my hand staring at me. Ever since Friday, the day I got the CDs and my release party, I've been walking around with my rucksack taking my CDs along with me always.

I am so incredibly relieved, and so glad about all the support I had from all the people around me, all the people that made music with me, be it for the album or just simply made music with me in the past, all the people who came to the release party and kept encouraging me and simply all who know and support me, in whatever form. Thank you.

It's just so incredibly freaky to have released an album, to have that as a reference point, to have seeped through all the music I made and boiled it down to 15 tracks and stuck to those long enough to see it through to make an album out of them. I was asked in interview not too long ago what I think my greatest achievement was and all I could say was that it's finished, but I have to add that there is no way in hell that I would have been able to finish anything if it weren't for the people who helped me.

Right now I could really just write a long thank you note to so many people, and then I'd forget someone and have to edit this blog post another 15 times and get really pissed at myself, so instead all I will say is "thank you", to everyone who helped in whatever way. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
