I've been in a Sci-Fi mood recently, so the tracks I'm writing are very "electronic" sounding. It could be because I've been playing Gravity Circuit...have you played that one?! If you like Megaman, you should look into it...soo good.
Anyway lol, for this tune I was picturing a little mechanic shop, where you purchase upgrades between stages or somethi...

Happy Friday Party Members!
I think it's been a couple months since I've done a sci-fi style track (I thiiiink?) so I thought today's track would be a great opportunity to remedy that.
I've played a couple of "modern games" recently and I do notice that they tend to have long droning tracks where elements kind of pop in and out from the base idea. Not always of course, but it is a p...

Got another 16-Bit track for ya today. I'm trying to sprinkle those in a bit more again.
This is a track that could work really well for any emotionally charged scene, but it could also work particularly well as a title screen theme. It was giving me Breath of Fire vibes, personally. Man I'd love it if that series made a come back.
The whole trac...

Ok so, I initially wasn't picturing an icy/snow environment for this track but...
IT'S SNOWING TODAY!!! WOOO!
It's been a few years since we've had a good snow here, so I'm excited for it.
Anyway, this track is really meant for a forest, but hey, it snows in forests too so why not?
Structurally, I tried to do a couple of things slightly ...

Today I'm doing something I used to do a lot, which is mix PS1, N64 and SNES sounds all into one tune. Ultimately a lot of the sounds came from the Quest 64 soundfont (which is really great btw) but there are a few others mixed in there as well.
This is a good starting village tune, which works well since we are at the start of a new year. I don't ha...

Oh man! I meant to post this early this morning, but I'm not used to posting on Saturdays so it slipped my mind unfortunately.
This is the make up song for last Wednesday. I told ya I was going to get something to you guys this week!
I just went for vibes on this one. Its very simple and a touch sparse, but it's still got some character to it. Li...

Happy 1st post of the year Party Members!
Today is a return to form. This is the first 16 bit tune I've released in a while (at least here on Patreon). But there is actually a whole story behind it.
A couple years back I was brought on to a big project that had a LOT of promise. There were (supposedly) some pretty big industry names associated with the project, a lengthy roadmap lis...

To be honest with you, last year was a bit of a roller coaster. There were a lot of bumps and bruises gained. There were parts of my life where I took steps forward and there were things that I neglected and lost ground with. I definitely didn't make it out unscathed.
BUT...I'm still here, and that is a huge blessing...

Welp, here we go. Last song of the year. I didn't do anything huge thematically. Really this is much like Wednesday's song; just a calm and peaceful, introspective tune. I really like it though, its one I can easily just play on loop in the background.
Honestly there is a lot I want to say in this post, but maybe that stuff would be better in a video po...

MERRY CHRISTMAS PARTY MEMBERS!!
Thought I'd go ahead and post the song early since tomorrow many of us will be celebrating Christmas and spending time with family.
Hard to believe this year is almost done. This is the LAST Healer tune of 2024. And rather than go out with a big, boisterous song, I thought I'd do something a bit more reserved and peaceful. So this is just a solo pian...

This one is pretty cool. I took some inspiration from FFX as I was laying things out and that really led to some pretty nice sounding sections. There are lots of spacy sounding synths, but for some reason layering them up the right way gives things a bit more of a wintery feel...or maybe it's just because that's what I was picturing in my head before hand that ...

Even though I'm not using the soundfont, I feel like this track is channeling some DKC energy. It's a very moody and atmospheric track, especially in the opening. The latter half has a bit more of an uplifting sound to it but still...

Peaceful winter tunes continue with this one. I went with a village theme, though it's got a "Holy" kind of quality to it as well. Almost reminds me of something you'd hear in Quest 64...is that game anyone else's guilty pleasure?? (Besides the official fan account guy on Twitter lol).
There are only 4 songs left this year. That's so crazy...granted I do ...

Today's tune we are venturing up North to visit a cozy little town covered in snow and eccentric engineers. That's what I picture in my head at least.
This song actually came to be a couple weeks ago, but I thought I'd save it for December since it has a touch of a wintery tone to it. I know it's labeled village and the title is "Tinker Town" but this ...

Phew well I'm really happy with how this one turned out. Especially because it was a last second change of plans!
I went through a couple of ideas yesterday but nothing was really sticking. I had 2 "almost good" tracks but I had lost steam on them pretty quickly, and was trying to figure out which one I wanted to stick with for today's post.

Alrighty, we are officially into December! I generally like to write snowy/wintery type themes this month (though I'm not nearly as strict about it as I am in October/Spooky month). So I'm starting us off with something pretty chill (pun not intended but appreciated).
Who doesn't love a good wintery area in a game? To me, they often have a reputation ...

That time of year is officially upon us. The temp is dropping quickly now, Thanksgiving is done, and Christmas season is kicking in to full gear and a new year is right around the corner.
Rather than doing something cozy and wholesome I figured I'd do something completely out of season...island music! Well, I say it's out of season, but who wouldn'...

Yesterday was a good writing day...and what that means is I was able to get this song knocked out in just a couple hours.
Ngl, with all the commission work I've had recently, I've been feeling a touch drained. It's going to be good to have some time off next week! That being said, I was really thankful that this song presented itself to me so easily. Rea...

Today's tune is a funky city groove. It's kind of a blend between a high tech sci fi and an island-y tune, at least to my ear. I used a bunch of instruments from Chrono Cross, which may be what is giving me that island vibe lol.
I honestly don't know what to say on these like 90% of the time, and today I'm really drawing a blank, so sorry if today's p...

Time for some high energy, late 90s fighting game music! That means crazy breakbeats, layered synths, e. pianos and sick guitar riffs. Those are the rules.
This one came to me last week, and its been stewing in the background till today. I had it mostly together but there were a few parts that needed tweaking and adjusting to get it sitting just right. Re...

I think it's been a while since I've done a "desert" theme. This actually didn't start off like that, but as soon as I started in with the lead instrument at 0:16, I knew that was the direction this one was going. XD
The looping point gave me a bit of trouble at first, but I got it working this morning. You may have heard me say this before, but honest...

Today's tune is a pretty chill dungeon theme. It starts off quiet enough for the player to get their footing but as the song progresses there are some really cool "flutey" elements that get added.
I don't normally do this when writing these days, but this one started off as strictly a piano track. Once I had the structure all laid out, I started moving th...

Today's tune was actually going to be something else. But upon review this morning, I thought it needed more time in the oven.
So naturally, I did what any sane person would do, and I scrambled to write something from scratch.
What I came up with is a simple but effective post battle or menu jingle. Just something to loop while the player looks ...

Today is the last day of our spooky month uploads, and as much as I would have liked to do a big boisterous scary tune, what ended up happening was a melancholic piano tune for reflective moments.

Today's tune is super chill, but with a hint of tension for ya. As with a lot of songs this month, it was inspired by Silent Hill and of course, Parasite Eve. You guys know I love the old distorted/filtered backbeat technique in these tunes. :D
The track started off with the main synth line and the rest of the pieces fell into place surrounding that. Not...

Got a simple little tune for ya today. You guys know I love the Silent Hill music vibes so I just put together something you'd hear in a short conversation cutscene. Just some cool/dark sounding pads, weird static-y noises in the background and a warbly lo-fi piano.
I thought about taking this in another direction but honestly, once I got it to this po...
