Preview and Small Update Post! June 22nd (Patreon)

It's been a minute since the last update post, so I'm combining it into today's preview post of the next song up, Tidal Rush from Splatoon 2. I still have a bit to do, but I'm hoping to have this one done either tonight or tomorrow, meaning the video should be ready by Saturday or Sunday.

After that, I'm still not 100% certain what the next song up will be. Unknown from M.E. is nearing completion, and I've also been making progress on the InsaneInTheRain collaboration. Depending on how progress looks on those by the time I'm done with Tidal Rush, I might just squeeze in a more simple song from the to-do list in between it and either U.F.M.E. or the IITR collab. I'll have a better idea on the day I upload the Tidal Rush video (well I have to, cause of the challenger approaching screen and all, haha).

As a reminder, here's our current to-do list:

1: Tidal Rush (Splatoon 2)

June?: Unknown from M.E. ft. ShaoDow (Sonic Adventure)

June?: ????? ft. InsaneInTheRainMusic

TBA: Courtney Gears Battle (Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal)

TBA: Save the World (Final Fantasy Legend II)

TBA: Molgera Battle (Wind Waker)

TBA: Steel Beowulf (Super Robot Wars OG)

TBA: Battle 1 (Final Fantasy Mystic Quest)

TBA: Decisive (Ogre Battle 64)

TBA: Fight!! Ver. 3 (Grandia II)

TBA: Guard Daos (Lufia and the Fortress of Doom)

TBA: Tor (Iji)

TBA: Pressing Pursuit ~ Cornered (Apollo Justice ~ Ace Attorney)

TBA: 'April Fools' Song

TBA: Side-Quests Volume 2 (Song list is on the bottom of the request list)

TBA: 1 billion Acoustic Shorts

Unfortunately I had a lot of time eaten up this month working on some non-GaMetal stuff and getting these collab tunes together, but I should be back on track completely in July and will try to knock out as much of this last as I can. My Birthday Song may have to wait a little bit this year. xD

Dreamland Invasion physicals update... they've arrived!

I've already sent out the first batch of Dreamland Invasion physicals and am prepared to send out another set this weekend. The first for-sale set of physicals will be going up on the GaMetal BandCamp tomorrow (Saturday) at 3:00 PM US Central Time. This is the first time I've sold physicals on BandCamp, so I'm testing the waters by putting up 20 at first to see how fast they go. If they go quickly, I'll put up another 10 or so until next weekend. I can't put them up all at once because it'd take me an eternity to package them all!

Unfortunately, I hit a small bump in the road as far as international shipping costs are concerned: I can no longer send these as International First Class Mail and now have to send them as International First Class Packages, because customs will no longer accept anything other than documents through F.C. Mail. This raised the cost a bit for international shipping, so it's now looking like International shipping costs will be $9 for those in Canada and $12 for those elsewhere. The physicals themselves are $3 each, so that will make it $12 total in Canada and $15 overseas.

The good news, for those in the states, shipping is still low at only $3, so you'll still be looking at $6 total.

Again, if you're interested in getting a Dreamland Invasion physical, check on the Dreamland Invasion page on the GaMetal Bandcamp at 3:00 PM US Central Time tomorrow (Saturday, June 23rd). <('-'<)

That's all for now, it's gonna be a tight last week of the month but we should at least be able to get out another 3 songs before July. Until then, thank you all as always for being amazing! :D

TL;DR: Tidal Rush coming this weekend, followed by either Unknown from M.E., InsaneInTheRain collab, or some other TBA song from the to-do list. First 20 for-sale Dreamland Invasion physicals going up on the GaMetal Bandcamp page at 3:00 PM US Central Time tomorrow. Thanks for being awesome!
