So 2009 turned out to be a pretty awesome year for your friendly Big Giant Circles.  I wish I’d done a better job of logging it all, but since I have a new site anyway, I figured this would be a good time/place to share with you all some of the particularly awesome experiences I had   So in not-perfect order, here you go!

1. Attended Magfest 7, rubbing shoulders with folks like Grant Kirkhope, Tommy Tallarico, and many other awesome folks in the game/music industry
2. 4 ReMixes posted on OverClocked ReMix
   
3. Led the OCR Fundraiser month to raise over $5000 for the site, marking the 1st year the site was fully funded by fans
4. Contributed to Josh Whelchel’s “Songs for the Cure” album, which raised over $5000 to assist in the fight against cancer
5. “Songs for the Cure ‘09″ graciously covered by Jeremy Cole on Guitar Center’s GAIN website
6. Attended Video Games Live’s 100th show in Richmond, VA
7. Music featured on FOX Sports
8. Received some cool coverage from Capcom’s Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix soundtrack
9. Interview and first ever composer/remixer collaboration with Alex Brandon in Deus Ex – Siren Synapse
10. Torley amplifies the awesome with a stellar remastered version
11. Exciting news TBA very soon!

All in all, I feel unbelievably lucky and blessed to have had so many great experiences this past year.  It definitely set a high precedent for 2010, and I’m eager to see what the future holds for this year!  All I can say to you, my friends who are taking the time to read this, is thank you so much for your love, friendship, and support.  I’m truly blessed indeed!  I suppose my only real goal for 2010 is to continue to improve my own abilities so I can continue to uplift, inspire, or simply entertain you through my music.  In the meanwhile, I also promise to not wait an entire year to update you on groovy BGC-related news, so stay tuned!

All my best,

-Jimmy
