A new beginning

Yesterday I feel like I took a new step toward a new beginning, both personally and professionally.

Personally

I started working out again because I gained some fat that isn’t supposed to exist. I’m not and never was fat per se. It’s just that extra fat that ends up bothering me.

I started slow, because even though I go for long walks regularly, I haven’t run in a long time, nor lifted weights. So I started with a mix of running for a few seconds, walking, sprinting, walking, etc. I did this for 8km (approximately 5 miles), which is my standard, and I did pretty well. I did some light push-ups and crunches, but nothing crazy.

When it comes to food, I have an old diet plan that I’ll be updating in the next few days, but that’s also a process that will come slowly so I can get used to it again. No rush for either the food or the exercise. One step at a time…

Professionally

This website

I finally decided what to do with my personal website (this one you’re visiting). For a while, I only had a static page with links to my music projects and other non-music projects, but now I feel like I have a lot of stuff to share, and I want to have a space to do it, while owning my own data and setting my own rules (not having a big corporation decide what and how I should share my content). I’m not against social media per se, I’m still using all of them, but I want to have a plan B in case something happens one day. I also want to have a space where things are organized differently, with no algorithms, more focus on conversation, and where users can also post. A real community.

Besides my own stuff that I want to share, I want this website to be a place for other people to ask questions, share experiences, help others with their own questions, etc. I’ll be sharing more here than on social media because I really want to build my own community, not just focused on music (though that will be a big part of it), but on other topics I’m passionate about as well.

Music projects

Other than that, I’ve been super busy working on lots of music. To celebrate 20 years of Sir Giant, I’m releasing my new EP, “EP25”. I’m loving the new songs!

After that, I’ll be working on another Sir Giant EP called “Still Here”. I’ve been working on it since 2023 and can’t wait to release those songs. Then, expect a new song, EP, or album every month. Most likely a single song, but you never know.

I’m also revisiting my Danny Wyatt challenge, the 365 Challenge. From April 2026 to April 2027, I will release a new song every single day, for a total of 365 songs. This was a challenge I started back in 2023, but due to certain obstacles, I ended up leaving it on the back burner. I’m pretty excited, especially because I already have a lot of songs from when I was working on it, and some of them sound really good!

So that’s it for now. I have a lot of plans for this website, so stay tuned. Feel free to share your own posts, reply to other people’s posts, and stay tuned for all the great updates coming soon!


EDIT - Aug 27, 2026

The 365 Challenge has been postponed to 2027, so I will be releasing a new song every day for 365 days, starting Jan 1 2027, through Dec 31 2027.
