PREHISTORY by FLOOR BABA
Runtime: 42:05
https://smarturl.it/FLOORBABA-PREHISTORY

New spaces are constantly being carved between genres and with influences as diverse as Mr. Bungle, Meshuggah, Wendy Carlos, Steve Vai, Roy Ayers, and soundtracks to games such as EarthBound and Chrono Trigger, it's fair to say that FLOOR BABA commands a unique space.

What began as an outlet for unreleased soundtrack work quickly found a home in the excitement of mid-2010's SoundCloud culture. Since then, FLOOR BABA has continued to craft a unique combination of retro sounds and today's emergent electronic stylings. Through FLOOR BABA what's old and what's new dance in a personal exploration.

FLOOR BABA - GLORE:

lift your wings

S3XMODIT Mania 2 started a couple of weeks ago.
Here was my entry for Round 1 (with some additions and a key change because I think this one sounds better). Crapped out in 3 hours. Enjoy! :)

Nials

My entry for Round 3 of S3XMODIT Mania 2 - placed 1st for the week!

Theres Nothing To Lose Anymore

Hiya. This was my entry to the Semi-finals of S3XMODIT Mania 2 (which ended a week ago). I finished joint 5th that week, and as a result, failed to make it through to the final round (by one point!). Congrats to Goluigi for winning, and Jayster, mad and Stinkbug for getting the runner up positions :)

Absolute Zero

my track for this wonderful ZeroRanger arrange album: https://resonantunion.bandcamp.com/album/zeroranger-arranged-album-green-arrange

it's about 90% sourced from samples of the other tracks on the album manipulated in various ways, the rest is mostly original synth manipulation from me.

This is "technically" a remix of Menacing (the original of which has this main 8 note synth sequence playing over samples of other tracks from the original game). However in practice this is more like an original plunderphonics track featuring that ostinato.

If you'd like to see where the sampled material comes from, I delineated what comes from where as best as I could in the premiere video, timestamp for my track linked here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPk89-Kk55Q&t=3826s

I may eventually upload my own even more granular and precise video (a couple parts aren't as clear what comes from where as they could be, but I could do things like time them to light up in intensity even more tightly). This is mostly accurate down to the frame, but there's a couple short bits where what you'll see is sorta approximations/guesses where I may be able to more confidently nail exactly what-plays-when in the future.

I highly recommend checking out the full album if you have even a passing interest in any of the involved artists, ZeroRanger, or shmup/STG music in general. It's a love letter to the genre in so many ways, and perhaps the most high-effort arrange album I have ever even seen. Everyone gave their best, going above-and-beyond expectation to showcase our love for not only this soundtrack, but the variety of types of music this type of game hosts in general. Over 60 collaborators, from recognizable names to musicians who've scarcely been heard before. I saw people who put so much work into organization, translating lyrics, clever editing of that premiere video, learning parts to play live on their instruments. The list goes on, but the end result shows a high passion that I deeply respect.

Shay. - Gran Zorro

Tamiel, the Harbinger of Rejection.
Born of clarity amongst chaotic emotions.

You are the Luarie.

Smite the wicked
who follow the heretic, MUUTen.

Spread the true will of clear emotions.
O chosen Apostle,
deliver the word of
our savior, NUUNine.

A being formed from corrupted Ruleo. You carry the power to undo that which they hold dear.
The power to reject logic and reality. With you, your master can harness the Link Seed and free them from MUUTen. If you do, your existence will become valid.

(Bonus) Neer (Shoebill Remix)

STAR SLAMMER (truhaus)

In the next couple days I'm going to be deleting all my songs off of soundcloud and uploading anything to youtube that isnt there already. SoundCloud is starting to train ai on music uploaded and I'm not paying over $100 a year to have my shit stolen by some dickhead techbro. Feel free to download my songs for yourself but PLEASE DO NOT reupload any of my stuff on soundcloud.

R-Nitrox (Check description, deleting all music soon)

My contribution to the We R Massive Vol. 2 album.
