All of my daily compositions for the #21daysofVGM challenge will go in this playlist.

21 Days of Video Game Music April 2019

1st day of the #21DaysofVGM April challenge - going for some level select / map / world select music.  A short loop using an instrument I've never used before - a Duduk!

VGM Day 1 - Welcome to the farm, please select your favourite animal!

Day 2 of the #21daysofvgm challenge!  A shorter one today, but which took equally as long to make - a 'game over' theme! Feedback welcomed.

VGM Day 2 - Game over man!

Day 3 of the #21daysofVGM April 2019 challenge! Was originally going for an escape theme for a sewer type of level, but it turned out a bit more spacey/sci fi then planned.  I wanted to have squelchy sounds, metallic hits, a driving bass and drums to create a sense of panic and stress, and I think I achieved that.  I also wanted to experiment with drum loops and samples, which I have never really used before.  Heavily influenced by the work of Darren Korb from his soundtracks to Supergiant games such as Bastion and Transistor.

VGM Day 3 - Escape from the sewer!

Day 4 of the #21daysofVGM April 2019 challenge.  A bit of RPG piano music for today - I see it playing alongside you discovering the villains troubled past, showing the player that things aren't as simple as black and white.  A bit Skies of Arcadia inspired!  I wanted to record the piano live, but in my sleepiness I kept playing it wrong... so I opted for midi instead!

Discovering the villains troubled past

Day 5 of the #21daysofVGM April 2019 challenge! A quick guitar piece I recorded on a Fostex multitracker that I haven't used in years.  I had friends over tonight so only had time to do something quick after they had gone, but I'm actually pretty happy with some of the ideas in this.  I imagine it accompanying the player as they travel across the world.

VGM Day 5 - Travelling down that long ol' road

Day 21 of the VGM April 2019 challenge!  The last day today and an epic space themed composition to play the challenge out / inspire new beginnings.  Also my first time composing in 5/4.
