VGM Mix of mine + others that I like

Is certainly not a mystery that Ridge Racer Type 4 helped to shape my music style in some way; without that game, there wouldn't be any RoBKTA AT ALL.

Despite all though, I don't think I have ever been able to give its soundtrack proper justice remixing it... It took me various years but I am finally happy to share this song with all of you. Possibly one of my absolute favorites of all the soundtrack.
And if you're a Patreon can listen to it before it lands on all the streaming platforms soon!
This version is possibly the best testament I could give to the best ever racing game soundtrack (to me at least) and I hope you'll all enjoy listening to it as much as I did working on it! 🏎️

Shoutout to @AngelAtRedline on Twitter for their legendary RTS Bisonte mod in Assetto Corsa featured in the artwork 🏁

RoboRob & TOFIE - Say The Words (Shady Monk Remix)

A rambunctious new song and video from Friends Without Faces. Here, our characters meet: sorrel (human, current year, Florida) and Lychee (red panda-stoat, from the future, Neo-Antarctica). Lychee can't beam video back in time, but she is able to send motion-capture through VRchat. "Sunny Side Up" dips between ominous lyrics about feeling hopeless in the current tech-landscape, and positive lyrics about embracing the technology to connect with friends. Backing vocals in certain parts of the song are provided by Diana Starshine ♬

Lyrics:

You just can't please everybody
When you try, things get so gaudy
That the art falls apart
Bleeding hearts à la carte
Can't articulate what the mind dictates

The room's eyes turn to me:
"Enfranchise all of these
Lost souls" is our aim tonight
And with that, please recite

I fire up my buddies over USB
Stayin' evergreen in the Holocene
I'm so glad to be the function bourgeoise
The hottest thing on the blockchain B/C

I put my hands up, then I put them down
I keep my head up and I go to town
I'm in the cockpit when we fly in the club
And that's how we keep it sunny-side up

“Headstrong” once again
The song starts to end
When nothing else keeps
Helping you in stealth

In moments soon to pass
Atonement comes so fast
At last, a fire starts to swell
And still spreads, though dispelled

I fire up my buddies over USB
Stayin' evergreen in the Holocene
I'm so glad to be the function bourgeoise
The hottest thing on the blockchain B/C

I put my hands up, then I put them down
I keep my head up and I go to town
I'm in the cockpit when we fly in the club
And that's how we keep it sunny-side up

Drafting prose is a waiting game
Stepped-on toes near a window pane
Summer haze drums my Winter nights
End of days comes before the light,
Alright!

I put my hands up, then I put them down
I keep my head up and I go to town
I'm in the cockpit when we fly in the club
And that's how we keep it sunny-side up

Oh yeah
Oh, yeah!

To The Full Extent Of The JAM

The Middle Eight of Mach Rider's Main Tune for original 8-bit NES.

All rights reserved to Nintendo and the original composer (Hideki Kanazashi)
No intent to infringe, free track for all.

Middle 8 is kind of a misnomer it's longer than 8 measures but it's accurate enough as "the part you don't normally hear until you're advanced into something"  As this tune only played if you were at least 8 courses into the game's progression.  When the ruins are replaced by futuristic buildings on the horizon.

Dedicated to all of those who are headed either direction on I-5 into Seattle at around exit 190's ish not really obeying 80 MPH in the left lane.  We know who you are.  A significant fraction of you are humming exactly this portion.

Performed manually without any arpeggiation, from memory.  It's a little glitchy but it's the fondness for it that counts.

Mach Rider Middle Eight

A cover of the Home Sweet Home tune from FF5, about Bartz's isolated home town.
And then I reflect -I- am in an isolated home town...

All rights reserved to the holders of the VGM music, the composer Nobuo Uematsu, Square Enix, Nintendo, etc.  No intent to infringe, completely free non-monetized track for all.

The 3rd track in my lineup where the Roman numeral for the track numbering is some kind of cute joke (the others being XIX and XLII), the town name literally being the same spelling this time.

Home Sweet Home (FF5 Town of Lix / Glacier WA theme)

This is a great tune from the old Ultima III NES game, sail your ship through a whirlpool to Ambrosia and you'll hear it!

Ultima III NES - Remix - Ambrosia

1943 Kai The Battle Of Midway - Stage 2

Here's my take on some trap. Composed the orchestra track, because I wanted to make it a little musical and unique.

Been working on this for a couple of months, trying to tweak it to perfection. It still has some major flaws, but I hope you enjoy it nevertheless!

I'm still at the point where I just need to release a track and move on to the next one. Stay tuned.

Another og DESKPOP musician is back! That Andy Guy! Calling from Alabama, our cunning comrade crafted this carol completely on KORG's Switch contraption. It's a dirty lil bop that would make most sweat 💦 Try out some home exercises while listening to DoubleSlap to get the proper experience 👏

That Andy Guy - DoubleSlap

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.

My name is MeltFire. My hobby is hacking the rom of Super Mario 64. Often I'll make imports using the SM64 Level Importer's Music XML Converter for entertainment.
