Hello everyone,

Happy New Year! I know that it's been a long time, but I'm finally back! I finished university in June 2024 and since then, I've been getting back onto my creative projects. It turns out that I am physically well enough to keep making stuff (which makes me happy), but only for a fairly short amount of time each day (which makes me sad).

As this is a new era of my creative life, I've decided to make some changes. The name "Flanagonia" is over 3 years old at this point, and I don't really feel that it reflects the personality of my work anymore. I can announce that my new name on the Internet from now on shall be…

"Joseph's nose"!

It's based on a family in-joke that I've decided to play into. I'll be updating my profiles with my new name as far as possible.

Over the next few days, I hope to bring to you some of the stuff that I've been making for these past 6 months. I contemplated making a turn-based RPG, but for various reasons I didn't get very far. But nevertheless, I have some music and plot details to show off – I hope that you enjoy them.

Speaking of RPGs, I've also been planning a fan project based off a certain popular indie game. I gather that the creator is positive towards fan works, so this should be alright legally – I've emailed the development team to make doubly sure, and I'll get back to you all on this as soon as possible!

After over a year-and-a-half of mostly abstinence, I'm looking forward so much to engaging with people on a creative level again. Have a great day and here's to the future!

Joseph

Forgot to mention on Saturday that I don't have a YouTube channel any more, for commenting or otherwise. I accidentally deleted my second channel when I was deleting my first, and frankly I don't want to make another one. I've had an awful lot of negative experiences on the platform since I created my channel back in April 2021 and I think it's time to let it all go. I still use YouTube sometimes (mostly listening to music) but I won't be uploading or commenting there any more. Sorry to anyone who was hoping to hear from me on YouTube again, but I feel that it's the best choice. I hope that you guys can understand my reasoning.

Thanks,

Flanagan

Hi everyone,

All my archive tracks that I feel comfortable uploading are now on my SoundCloud. This includes some pre-2021 demos that have never been on the Internet before, so I recommend checking it out. Just watch out because the sound/composition quality is very inconsistent. Please don't forget that these were the very earliest days of my music.

As for future tracks and remasters of old ones, I am not sure when this can happen. My physical health is very much in flux at the moment and I do not currently feel able to continue my composing. I unfortunately cannot say when I will be well enough to write music again, if ever. Nonetheless, you now have the archive to listen to, and I hope that you all enjoy it. If I find myself well enough to continue my work, then I hope to be able to post here again.

In the meantime, I say many thanks to all of you for over 2 years of support and appreciation, and I hope to be able to share music with you again soon.

Flanagan
