Music. I played piano since very young, started making tracks on 4-track and the Amiga around 10 years old, kept going deeper with the demoscene and playing in + recording bands. Went on to do a music degree, got a job making music...
Hobby became serious, then it turned into a ball and chain. I turned around, did a second degree and started working in a different field. Thought I'd keep music as a hobby, but now it presents a different face: no point in making tracks if nobody but me ever listens, nor is there point in producing other people for free with all the invested time most likely never being too fruitful.
I did find a new hobby though. Working out is the antithesis to working on art projects. Put an hour in, get an hour's worth of gains back. Love it :D
Aw me too :( coming to terms with the same feeling I think ♥️ glad you found something cool to do in its place.
Thanks for this 😊 It certainly wasn't easy to let the muse go, here's hoping you will manage it smoothly - or better, find a way to keep the flame going ❣️
