If there's around 200$ left towards the end, I'm thinking of just dropping down the money for this... This will bump a big dent in my bank, but for Marcus D, it's worth it. Let's go! Support the project!
Two weeks to go and not much is missing for this to be a success. To be honest I was a bit skeptic but I even made this page my homepage to see if there is some progress going on. I'm just a student so I can't afford a meet and greet but everything helps! Thanks you for the good music!
Listening to rough cuts of Melancholy Hopeful right now. You won't be disappointed...it is already amazing! Marcus D just gets better with each beat he produces. Please back this project so that it can be completed and you can listen to more beautiful music from Marcus D!!
