Executable music entry for Revision 2011, which it eventually won. About 27k including everything, most of it being the movie sample which you probably can't make out unfortunately.

This track was a tricky one to do - I had to go against a lot of my preconceptions of how or why should I make music, and ultimately a lot of the credit must go to http://soundcloud.com/dshmusic for reassuring me in the last minute that I really should just follow my instinct and go ahead with whatever I feel like adding to the tune, instead of being held back by preconceived ideas.

All in all I think this is one of my favorite tracks of what I've done.

Soundtrack for the Conspiracy 64k "Offscreen Colonies" available at http://conspiracy.hu/release/64k/offscreen_colonies/

This was done in a very short time but it was all the more fun and challenge to work on this - the brief was "slightly retro, uplifting, slowish", so I tried to make it sound like a bit of an 80s sci-fi movie endscroller track. Despite some serious micromanagement to fit the future visuals, I'm very very happy with the end result.

So I just realized I never actually wrote an editorial here so here goes: This particular track was pretty much done as a reaction - we released our intro "Memento" in early 2006 and the reaction wasn't stellar. People hated the synth and the music, which was a bit heartbreaking because it was my first job working on a 64k soundtrack for Conspiracy - I was angry and hurt. At the same time, at the same party, I entered a ~1800 byte exemusic entry called "Demise" which was very much a proof of concept of doing these huge basslines in small sizes.

When we started working on Chaos Theory, I was very much driven by my recent introduction to https://soundcloud.com/blacksunempire/ - the influence was pretty tangible. At the same time I meshed influences from mainstyle hardcore I was getting into (https://soundcloud.com/djthaplayah/tha-playah-fuck-tha-fame by https://soundcloud.com/djthaplayah/ just came out at the time), and for some reason I felt a strong influence by Dream Theater at the time too, which I can't explain.

The response to this track was absolutely overwhelming, and to this day I'm not entirely sure what resonated with people or why, but I'm glad that it did.

The Rewind

Soundtrack for the Still 64k "Invoke" (https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=50135)
Download at http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj__Boraros_ter_923.ogg
The title is a reference to a square in Budapest where I used to wait at 1-2AM for the night bus (number 923) to arrive quite often during the period I was writing the tune. The bus only came every hour so I would need to spend that period sitting in a bus stop. The square itself, as many others, is populated with homeless people, kebab stands, slightly irredentist drinking establishments and dirt, but what made it admirable for me is how "organic" it was - it felt it wasn't prone to trouble, everyone knew the way and routine, and it all evolved into a system.
The track is one of the first 64k tracks to use "glitch" i.e. granular editing. A huge chunk of influence belongs to edIT's amazing first album (http://soundcloud.com/edit/sets/crying-over-pros-for-no-reason). Also, if you think the melody reminds you of The Birthday Massacre, you are very correct.

Distant Sweet Horizon

Soundtrack for the Ümlaüt Design 64k "Träsh"
Download at http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj__Grimesphere.ogg

This track came about when one day I was wondering if we should make a 64k intro and what the concept would be. Eventually I remembered that back in 2003, TGD made a parody of our naming scheme, joking that our next intro would be called "Träsh". Since I thought it's a good name, I began to think about what kind of design would fit, and eventually narrowed it down to "grimy, dirty, sewer-style".
I'm not sure what the influence was the music for, I'm pretty sure the feel for the beat came from the Prodigy remix of "Release Yo Delf", and the glitchy editing was just something I always enjoyed (BT, Tipper, Infected Mushroom...). I believe this was in fact the first 64k intro ever to do that.

Featuring the slick, trademark tones of German electronic giant MOGUAI and the high-octane musical antics of Belgian superstars Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, ‘Mammoth’ – released through Spinnin Records on March 4th – is quite possibly one of the most unexpected collaborations to kick off 2013. Having been featured in the Tomorrowland 2012 official aftermovie that’s received over 40 million views, ‘Mammoth’ is surely already one of the most eagerly anticipated releases of the new year.
 
WATCH THE PREVIEW ON YOUTUBE:
 
The collaboration came about after both acts met up on the global festival circuit throughout 2012. Creative emails flew back and forth across Europe before the trio finally settled on the skeleton of ‘Mammoth’ as a potential new track. Speaking about the collaboration from his studio in Germany, MOGUAI said, “The track is not so far away from my own solo work. I said to myself, with the right mix this could be something huge, so we got into the studio together and at the end, we had the finished mix that you know now.”
 
A delicious slice of skewed electronica with ‘fist-pump’ written all over it, this titan of a track packs as much energy as it does technical class; crashing bass sections, warped synths and a huge breakdown combining the strengths of both production elements in one fell swoop. ‘Mammoth’ displays the extensive array of musical influences that these two world-renowned acts are constantly drawing their inspiration from, fusing everything together seamlessly for an anthem that will surely be an enormous smash in clubs and at festivals all over the world throughout 2013. To put it plainly, it’s going to be MAMMOTH!
