That time I arranged vocals for a caveman (and cavewoman) dedicated to Ayla from Chrono Trigger.  I also sing lead on this song.  Arranged with Skill Tree in 2019.

lyrics
"Oohga bunga!
Munga meeple!
Oohga bunga!
Munga meeple!

Win and live. Lose and die.
Rule of life
We cannot change the rules of any fight
Ayla fight. Ayla no run.
Running shame

Win and Live. Lose and die.
Me Ayla!

Oohga bunga!
Munga meeple!
Dance with the wind people!
Oohga bunga!
Munga meeple!
Dance with the mountain people!
Oohga bunga!
Munga meeple!
Dance with the wind people!
Oohga bunga!
Munga might!
Since and dance all night!

Oohga bunga!
Munga meeple!
Dance with the wind people!
Oohga bunga!
Munga meeple!
Dance with the mountain people!
Oohga bunga!
Munga meeple!
Dance with the wind people!
Oohga bunga!
Munga might!
Since and dance all night!

The Reptites came
Came to claim the land
Ioka fight, Ayla fight
For our tribe!

The Reptites strong
Laruba did succumb to them
Ioka fight! Ayla fight
For our tribe!

Win and live. Lose and die.
Rule of life
We cannot change the rules of any fight
Ayla fight. Ayla no run.
Running shame

Win and Live. Lose and die.
Ayla win!

You hit her once (Once!)
She hit you twice (Twice!)
You hit her once (Once!)
She hit you twice (Twice!)
You hit her once (Once!)
She hit you twice (Twice!)
Ayla fight! Ayla fight!
Fight for tribe!

You hit her once (Once!)
She hit you twice! (Twice!)
You hit her once (Once!)
She hit you twice! (Twice!)
You hit her once (Once!)
She hit you twice! (Twice!)
Ayla fight! Ayla fight!
Fight for tribe!

Ayla fight!
Ayla tribe!
Ayla fight!
Ayla tribe!

The Lavos came
Came to kill the world
Ayla will fight
He will not survive!

Just like Reptite
Ioka will lead the fight!
Ioka fight!
Ayla fight for our tribe!

Aylaaa!"

Just stay on the ground, like others have found,
its best when you play like everyone else…

"Helmet Auto-Recit"  
sung by Starfox  (Jesse Buddington)
original composition performed by Jesse Buddington
based on Baroque opera recitatives
written as part of "Super Smash Opera" www.supersmashopera.com

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My friends, my friends, my friends!

Put up thine arms a moment, and lend to me thine ears.
Attend ye to this tale of woe which here unfolds before us.
We, the heroes of Nintendo, despite our strength and passion,
have been manipulated by that most dexterous, and sinister of fiends.

For so hath he plotted, and hath played us all against one another...
And he hath crushed our friend - our most noble friend:
Jigglypuff…
(Jigglypuff interlude)

No, my friends! We cannot abide these vile machinations!
Stand with me!
Take up sword, and magic, and stare DEATH into the palm of the foe!

It is only together, as one, that we may hope to win this day!
Hearken ye, unto what the Fox doth say.

Helmet Auto-Recit

Tunesday Week 9 - Defy The Odds (The Bitter Pill)

Inspiration drawn from The Beatles, Tim Minchin and Muse for this one. The outro comes in quite abruptly but I like the feel of this overall. I started playing the piano and started signing the initial lines and everything fell into place very quickly. I've never written in this style but I really like it.

Defy The Odds (The Bitter Pill)

This is an original choral piece from the game Cat Sorter VR. This song begins playing when you are short on time, and there are too many cats on your conveyor belt!

Featuring Bonnie Bogovich, Kurt Heiden, and Grey Robbins as the cats!

Cat - Tastrophe

I’m incredibly happy to share the main theme for Ambition: A Minuet in Power with you all!
This piece features the virtuosic oboe of Kristin Naigus (@field-of-reeds), best known for her work on ABZÛ, Tooth & Tail, and the just-released Moss. The main theme sets the stage for the game, raising the curtain and acting as an overture of sorts, foreshadowing the heights of grandeur you might rise to, while nodding to the lines and people you might cross to get there. It’s all wrapped up in a musical form that takes its cues in equal parts from period opera overtures and a Classical-era oboe concerto. 

This piece was an absolute pleasure to write. It allowed me to pull on the sounds and techniques of the late 18th century, taking influence from composers like Mozart, Haydn, and the Chevalier de Saint-Georges himself, Joseph Boulogne. This has been an absolute thrill, and I can’t wait to share more with you. 

Special thanks also to Andrew Steffen, Andrew Stern, Sam Bobinski, and Michael Scott Gebhart (@bassoonify) for bringing the orchestra to life.  

Hope you enjoy this taste of what’s to come for Ambition’s musical score!

Ambition: A Minuet in Power - Main Theme

From Tales of the Okefenokee, Save the Rabbit.  Six Flags Over Georgia.

A metal reimagining.

Save the rabbit,
save the rabbit,
whatever you do,
or else he's gonna wind up in a terrible stew.
Save the rabbit!
Save the rabbit!

Save the Rabbit [Tales of the Okefenokee] (Rock Version)

Two Palimpsests on Athena by Trevor Villwock

Text: Homer, Hymn IX ("To Athena") from the Homeric Hymns (translated by H.G. Evelyn White)
Dread is she...
It is she who saves the people as they go out to war and come back.

Note: While writing this piece, I was thinking a lot about early vocal music and the way our conception of the past is distorted through filters of conflicting historical narratives. When I was super into Greek mythology as a kid, Athena was always one of my favorite deities—it's
awesome to get to pay tribute to her in this way.

Bonnie Bogovich hails from Pittsburgh PA and is very excited to be part of this amazingly elaborate and collaborative project! A music composition and multimedia alumna of Duquesne University, Bonnie wears, and has worn, many hats throughout her creative career. 

Originally spending lots of time behind the scenes doing stage management and multimedia design, while also dabbling in sound design and music for museum exhibits, games, and independent film, Bonnie crossed over into lead performer territory during a writing collaboration with her long time musical cohort and collaborator Liz Rishel on an original multimedia and live stage hybrid production Evenings in Quarantine: the Zombie Opera.  Working on The Zombie Opera helped reignite her long time passion of singing in choirs which led her to pursue more performance endeavors with a variety of ensembles and opera companies. Later she combined her love of classical opera with popular video game characters by helping to produce a new opera hybrid project, Super Smash Opera, crafted with the MAGfest audience in mind. Performing and arranging music for Smash was extra fun, allowing her to write not only for people, but with puppets too (ex. turning Papageno Duet from Magic Flute into Pikachu language) and her favorite role to date is “Jigglypuff” aka “Puccinipuff”, because she “only sings Madama Butterfly”.

Many of this project’s collaborators and audience might know Bonnie best as the Audio Lead at Schell Games, through which she has worked on the music, sound design, human and creature voices for a variety of video games and interactive experiences including Water Bears, I Expect You To Die, Puzzle Clubhouse, Innercube, Sea World’s Race to the Beach, Mechatars, Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, and Amplify Education’s The World of Lexica.  She is also currently working as a sound designer for the upcoming Homestuck Adventure Game titled Hiveswap by What Pumpkin. 

Bonnie is incredibly thankful to the Materia project heads for encouraging her to bring her passion for voice and puppetry to life with her arrangement of Waltz de Chocobo sung by Muppet-inspired chicken chorus. Her vocals can also be heard on Stephen Robert Froeber’s jazz arrangement of Costa Del Sol on May Claire’s Whitacre-esque arrangement of Life Stream.
