Dear YouTubers,
Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart ❤ for listening to my piano covers. I'm very grateful for all your support all these while.
In the past, I've been providing High Quality Mp3s for free on my website. But, there are too many people who has abused the system by downloading them and selling them everywhere in places such as Amazon, E-Music, Napster, Ebay, and you know what, because of all these piracy, believe it or not, surprisingly my name appears among over 231,000,000 websites and growing.
On top of that, this Website of mine also faced a problem of insufficient storage space when I put all my High Quality Mp3s up for free.
To solve both issues, I've transferred all my High Quality Mp3s into a paid server in order to filter out those who are not serious, and linked every song individually from that server in my YouTube videos. However, my efforts were backfired by haters who caused some videos to be removed. Therefore, I've removed all links from my YouTube videos and there will be no more Free High Quality Mp3s.
Ultimately, I'd prefer that you guys just listen to my covers on YouTube, be it from your computers or phones.
For those who really seriously want High Quality Mp3s of my songs. I'll show you guys how to get it in a separate post.
Sincerely yours,
Ray Mak
Greetings Brothers & Sisters of YouTube!
In the past, I've been using a much lower quality old version software to extract Mp3s of my piano covers for you guys to download. Unfortunately their quality sounded like they are being played from the radio and very mono. Being a crazy audiophile myself, this is just unacceptable.
I have taken some time and a lot of effort to separate and extract high quality Mp3s from my Original Piano Covers in their purest forms using a very expensive software for you guys to download. They are going to sound much better than how they actually sound on YouTube, so please get your very good set of headphones or speakers ready!
I've put links to my Mp3s for each song in their own YouTube Video respectively. You'll just have to fill up some simple surveys or grab some amazing deals to download them, it's that simple! Enjoy the Music!
PS :
The main reason I'm making it slightly more difficult to download high quality version of my songs is to avoid people like Alonzo Holt from the past who download all my songs for free and sell them everywhere for profit. Furthermore, my website server is getting too full if I continue uploading my songs on it.
Anyway, I'd be truly happy if you don't download any of those songs and just continue listening from the videos itself. Those are highest quality when you set to FULL HD.
Warmest Regards,
Ray Mak

Dear Brothers & Sisters from YouTube,
I've been notified that there's this guy by the name of Alonzo Holt is stealing my music that I've provided to everyone here on this website for free, and sells them on Amazon and other websites.
I personally wish to do something about it, however, I can't access some of these sites from my country except Amazon, can you guys help me report about him to those websites?
I'll provide a few of his sites below, otherwise, please Google Alonzo Holt.
Really Appreciate that! Thanks, Hugz!!!
PS : I know some of you guys are very good Bloggers / Wordpressers / Facebookers. I hope you can help me write about this issue of Alonzo Holt. Thank you sooooo much!!!! I'll read your blogs!!! Just put them on Comments below. I promise!

Mood : Happy Mood + Playful Mood (Lazy)
Key : B Major
Love the Monkeys!!!
This is the song that I always play or sing when I feel extremely stressed out. Once in a while, I can be quite lazy and procrastinate (delays tasks) a lot too. I love taking short breaks and rests in between work. Going for Holidays? My favorite!! The nature of my business requires me to be on the phone like almost all the time. It's really stressful! At the end of the day, I'm human too.
 Lazy time with Family, click for Video  Lazy time with <3  Lazy time with Friends

Today I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone

I'm gonna kick my feet up then stare at the fan
Turn the TV on, throw my hand in my pants

I'll be lounging on the couch just chilling in my Snuggie
Click to MTV so they can teach me how to dougie
'Cause in my castle I'm the freaking man(A bit smoother on this part rather than too playfully detached. Similar base pattern. Right Hand plays the Melody)
Oh yes, I said it, I said it
I said it 'cause I can(Smooth on C#, D#, E, F# back to B. Right Hand plays the Melody)
Today I don't feel like doing anything

Dear Brothers and Sisters of YouTube,
I know many of you look up on me as an Idol. I really appreciate that, but there is no need to idolize me.
I sincerely wanna let you guys know that I'm just a simple person with a simple life. I'm not even a musician, I sell houses. So please don't have such high expectations from my life and my performances.
I'm not perfect, I've got many flaws within my personality, characteristics, physical, etc. I have my ups and downs in life too, and currently, it's way down, beyond anything that I could have ever imagined. To the extent, that I have no mood for piano or update my website, at the moment.
Therefore, I seriously seek your support as true friends, rather than just fans. Looking forward to hear from all of you. =)
Regards,
Ray Mak
Dear Brothers and Sisters of YouTube,
I know this may be irrelevant to this Music Channel of mine and I know many of you may be too young to understand this, but I really wish to share my experience with you so that, if you do understand, you can at the very least, be fortunate enough to learn from my mistake at a young age.
I'm writing this to share with you my most painful experience of gambling and being gung-ho in the stock derivatives market. I was devastated for the whole of last week. Below is an extract of my email to my close friends about my experience. I’ve covered up the numbers not to reveal the amount of damage that I’ve received from my mistake. There may be some technical details that you may not understand.
“For the past couple weeks, I have been making consistent profits on 3 to 6 option contracts. However, last Friday. On the basis of my stupid instinct, novice Technical Analysis, supposed to be good Fundamentals, and some minor good news, I thought the market has rebounded. On top of that, the C levels, Directors, are buying the stock at the same time. That was Morgan Stanley at price of around USD 20.30 that time. Strongest support at USD 20 historically, so I thought. I gambled the market.
On Friday, the price bounced at USD 20 for a couple times (Just like BAC at USD 7 today) and I went in 50 Call Contracts with High Delta deep in the money. On Saturday, the downgrade of US Treasuries was released and confirmed by S&P. The stock gapped down the next day with news during the weekend and went straight down on Monday and Tuesday and never came back. I had traded with hope that USD 19.50 and 19.00 was a even strongest resistance, again so I thought. It had a small dead-cat-bounce, but my HOPE and ARROGANCE has caused me great misery. The stock then broke all Support Levels and the Dow Jones went all the way down to 10600 (10800 historically strongest resistance). I couldn't do anything but to only scream and cry, and cut loss at a huge loss when fear took over. In this very trade plus some minor bullish trades, I went deep in the shit, I've lost a total of close to XX,XXX in two days. Then only I realized that I was no difference than those going to Las Vegas or Genting. I have been crying over split milk until my nose bleed for the past two days and it will take me some time to recover. I saw the news of grown man crying on the streets, I'm no different.”
Remember :
1. Don't Gamble the market
2. Trade at your comfortable levels
3. Don't be gung-ho, go with the flow of the market sentiment
4. Never trade in HOPE
5. Look at Pre-Markets and After-Markets
6. Monitor the Index Futures too, especially when you're in a position
7. News can be noise
8. Never assume
9. Be careful of announcements, especially by Obama and Ben. Their facial expression tell tales too, from the pictures
10. Don't be arrogant, be humble in the market, and in life, to the people around you
11. The market does not respect anyone
12. Cut Loss when things turn against you, CUT LOSS, NEVER HOPE
13. Again NEVER HOPE, because it will very quickly turn into PRAY.
14. Once Again, Never GAMBLE!
I did not follow rules; I gambled the market with the hope of making quick buck. It was purely my mistake. There is no one to blame, but myself. Please take the lesson in my mistake as your lesson. I pledge that I will never repeat such mistake again and I hope you guys learn from my mistake too and never make it your own.
There are many things in life that has shaped my character to be overconfident. I'm very disappointed with myself. I'm very sorry and shameful to tell you YouTubers this, but I swear that this painful experience will change me, in trading, and in life. I will work extra hard to recuperate my losses, one step at a time.
PS : Notice how my songs suddenly sound different? Well, emotions play a huge role in my styles being someone non-technical.
