I feel like I was able to explore enough under Aketous. I will still release individual tracks under Aketous but, I feel like it was such a great run of amazing songs, that it should be honored with a happy ending as opposed to becoming stale. It&#8217;s best to leave at the top than to wither in my opinion. Same thing goes for my music in general.
