My first console was a Sega Genesis. I loved Sonic as a kid and I have fond memories playing through the early titles in the series. I especially loved the music; I would actually listen on headphones plugged into the Genesis. Flash forward to 2012: I was in my last semester of music school, and I joined a jazz ensemble called the Zebras. The ensemble picked a new theme each semester, and that spring, the theme was video game music arranged in a jazz style. (This was years before jazz covers of VGM got big on YouTube). I had a blast being in that band, and I contributed two arrangements to their repertoire. One of them was an earlier version of this track: Hydrocity Zone Act II, arranged for a smaller ensemble. In this track, I’ve expanded the arrangement to fit a full band. 

Throughout the arrangement you're going to hear the incredible rhythm section of Greg, Brian, Austin and Shawn. The first three are old UNT classmates of mine who work out in LA - whereas Shawn was in the Navy Commodores with me and is a top tier jazz guitarist who can play anything. I'd be remiss to forget the incredible ensemble playing spearheaded by Nashville lead trumpet ace, Steve Patrick. I’d also like to give a special nod to the Jerry Hey style "a capella" horn section soli in the middle. The soloists Howi Dietz and Emmanuel Echem bring some serious fire and soul to the piece. You don't wanna miss it!

I went down memory lane with this cover! I've always mentioned Dubmood as the main reason for me getting into chiptune, but Robinerd  was the one who inspired me to get into writing them.

That's right! My first foray into writing chips was not with FamiTracker, but with a small DAW-like program called Musagi, which is what Robinerd used for his chiptunes. This was all back in 2010 - 2012. Fast forward to 2024, I decided to look back on Robinerd's work, and I must say, it still sounds good to this day! It was quite the nostalgia trip. :)

Robinerd - Flying Weeds (MSX + SCC Cover)

moody shoes

get spooked by the jukebox

Lyrics:
A jukebox jumpscare making you jump in your seat
A jukebox jumpscare sending shivers down into your feet
Put on the record, starts with a real loud bang
Making you spring up and let out a howl
That is very foul

A jukebox jumpscare left you spooked in your chair
A jukebox jumpscare got you springing right up, like you just saw a bear
You're thinking "Dang it!" 'cause you got so panicked
But a silver lining's there that'll make amends
You can prank your friends
With a jukebox jumpscare

Jukebox Jumpscare

This is a collection of mostly unfinished songs ranging from the past 3 years; a mixed bag of funky drum loops! This is also the last of the upload time, so the full version of the album will be up on Bandcamp. Thanks for listening!

So Sure

An iron will is forged through moderation, clarity, and unwavering focus. Thought transforms into structure, emotion into discipline, and hesitation dissolves into calm resolve. Every decision reinforces an inner framework where perseverance replaces doubt and direction remains firm. In this space, strength is not noisy; it is precise, steady, and unyielding. Persistence solidifies into certainty, allowing the mind to move forward without distractions, carrying purpose like a weight that no longer burdens, but stabilizes.
