Trash80 - Icarus

This is probably my favorite music I've done so far: an epic orchestral track for ProtoCorgi with heavy 80's/90's Anime vibes.

If you want to listen to the rest of the game's OST, I just released ProtoCorgi's soundtrack on Bandcamp :)

ProtoCorgi - DogEscape

Disease - Beautiful insanity

I had the honor of releasing perhaps the first Atari 2600 tune that is actually in tune - thanks to Aleksi Eeben and his new Star Bars music editor.

Star Bars is an 2 channel Atari 2600 music sequencer and player that runs on Commodore 64. It allows you to export your music as an executable ROM file that runs on an Atari 2600 emulator or on the actual console. 

This tune was recorded on VICE C64 emulator and in PAL mode of the player. This is how I heard it while making it, but it will sound a bit different on a real Atari 2600. I have no way of recording it and the emulators (like Stella) have problems with the sound emulation. Judging from various emulations, the NTSC version sounds better than the PAL version on the Atari 2600 (and vice versa on the C64).

“Lost Alien” is a nostalgic retro synthwave odyssey that feels like drifting through the cosmos in search of home. The journey begins with shimmering arpeggios, delicate and crystalline, painting the vast emptiness of space with glimmers of hope. As the track unfolds, soaring synth leads glide gracefully across the mix, carrying the listener deeper into its emotional core.

The sound expands into a breathtaking climax, where massive pad layers from the legendary Roland Juno-106 and Roland Jupiter-8 intertwine with ethereal textures, creating a lush, immersive wall of sound. Every chord resonates with both longing and wonder, like the echoes of a traveler who has wandered too far from the stars.

“Lost Alien” is more than music—it’s a cinematic voyage through memory, distance, and the eternal glow of neon skies.

A little happy synth song I've been working on the last week. Turned out pretty nice.
