Here is my submission for the NGUAC 2021 Knockout Round!

I decided to keep going with the theme of Astral instead of trying to do something in a new style, so if I make it to the next round I'll probably release an extended version of Astral with the new songs in it (otherwise I can just release this as a single). Good luck to everyone!

The Thief

Another Chiptune-jazz song! These songs are some of my favorite to make, and i'm getting ready to release A Jazz Bit Story 2 sometime in early October, so keep your ears out :)

IMAGINARYHEARTBREAK

the opening chords are semi-inspired by a really old track of mine, "Wisdom." I've wanted to do something with it for a while now, so i decided to turn it into a lofi track. the rest of it is pretty standard stuff, with some funky grooves in the percussion of course :)

Ghostsong

Here is my submission for the 2022 NGADM - Round 1.

I don't know how much more LoFi i'm gonna make for this summer EP but i've been having a total blast with it and it's been a great way to work on my mixing/mastering skills, and also just the music process in general. I tried to get a little creative with the instrument choice on this one, I really like the vibe of the clarinets (especially with the vinyl filter) and I think it works pretty well. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy and good luck to everyone else in the running!

Familiar

Another tarot song! Finally! I've been working on this piece on and off for the last few months, recording and rerecording on half a dozen different instruments, but it's been super fun and I'm really happy with how this one turned out. I took a lot of inspiration from the song "Stratosphere" and the band duster in general for the vibe of this one, you can definitely hear it in the drums.

Here is a list of all the instruments and things recorded for this piece in order of appearance:
-Crotales (playing with mallets and scraping with fingernails)
-Dead air from my car radio (there are several of these throughout the track)
-Vibraphone
-Marimba
-Piano
-Drumset
-Bells

My goal is to make a song for every card in the major arcana, with each songs inspiration being the divination associations of that card as well as other pieces of media that I feel capture the vibe I'm going for. More of these on the way soon, and I hope you all enjoy this one!

XVII - The Star

FOR SIS

Happy 2024!

Here's a nice vgm tune I made using audiothing's minibit synthesizer. I'm working on more of this kind of music that I can release royalty free for indie game devs and the like. So if you'd like to use this in a project go ahead! Just credit me and send me a DM when you finish your project so I can check it out.

Cozy Coastline

This is another song for my vgm project, although it is a lot more jazz-bit story esque than the other songs so far. I'm gonna try to have a good mix of styles but I'll probably do a couple more like this too (I really like how the jazz stuff sounds on minibit).

These songs are all made solely using Audiothing's "Mini-bit" plugin by the way.

I've been finding it really hard to work on music lately, so sorry i haven't been able to post anything during this whole global pandemic stuff..
I made this for a chips compo because i liked the theme, i wish i could extend it but i haven't been able to come up with anything so i figured i'd just post it here. Hope you guys enjoy.
