Electronic/ambient artist. I started making music more than random scribblings in the fall of 2010, around the end of November. I think I've come a long way since then!

Yeah. ^_^ It's been really helpful, man. Thank you. Seriously.
Dear Skye,
While these are certainly tough and hectic times for you, a part of me actually feel kind of elated and excited for you while reading this. The journey to understanding and acknowledging oneself can be so long and complicated, but IMO in the end it's all worth it regardless of the outcome. How can you enjoy life without accepting who you are?
And I hope that you are surrounded by people who also accept and love you for who you are. That part is sadly tougher for people with uncommon traits (because most people, while not necessarily being malicious, can be uncomfortable with things they don't see often and thus are unfamiliar with). Nonetheless, I (naively?) believe that there are enough good-natured and open-minded people in this world who accept and appreciate that everyone is a little different :)
So yeah, some obvious crap from some random stranger guy on NG, but I wholeheartedly applaud your courage and wish you nothing but the best.
(As long as you continue to put out great music for me to enjoy :P)
Hey, gadogry.
Honestly, I'm fairly excited as well. Completely stressed out, unsurprisingly. But also excited. It *is* something new and exciting for me. For fairly obvious reasons.
Fortunately, I live in Eugene, so people here are extraordinarily open minded. Parents might be uncomfortable, but they're also open minded and we'll be able to work through it. Most of my friends are too. Even more fortunately, since I've been going by Skye online for a long time, people already recognize me by that name, and a lot of people have initially thought I was female because it kinda is that kind of name anyway.
Seeing this kind of response is really, really relieving either way, though. Especially from someone I haven't really spoken to much! (though that's easily corrected - Skype is a thing.)
I still gotta win that NGADM too, and I've no shortage of musical ideas. Trust me on that one! :)
Wow. I had no idea you were going through all of this, Skye! I admire your determination and your bravery, though. I hope it all works out one way or another, and if you ever need someone to talk to about anything, just PM me. ;)
Hey, man. Yeah. Surprise. :P
Feel free to shoot me a message on Skype, actually - that would be the most convenient. I use IM waaaay more than PMs on here. skyewint is my skype username - johnfn and I talk all the time.
Glad to see your response to my comment, and that you are in a good and supportive ecosystem. While I meant well, I still kind of cringed when hitting "send" on my last message because, you know, it's about something very personal to you, and some people may not take that well, especially coming from a stranger. So I was kind of relieved to see that you don't seem to be offended :P
Again, all the best to you! I for one would definitely love to hear about how things progress for you :)
I'll definitely share with you, then. :) Feel free to shoot me a message on Skype or something - I've always seen you as being a pretty cool person based on how you've presented yourself, and I always talk a lot more frequently and openly on IM platforms like Skype. That'll definitely have progress!
