Lovely! This sounds and looks like it should be a real game! Awesome, nice and adventurous. Some really sweet chord changes in here!

The melody and progression have such a sweet nostalgic sound! Pingo is the cutest!

All sounds, except drums, were made with the 16 Bit Ableton Live Pack.

The 16 Bit Ableton Live Pack has 105 instruments made from samples of the Sega Genesis's sound chips.

JaMuary 24- the aim to create a piece of music (no matter how short or incomplete it is) for as many days as I can during the month.

Most Jamuarys are incomplete or just the start of an idea so I upload them as private here but they are public on my other Soundcloud page  https://soundcloud.com/trevbushell and Ive put them in a playlist you can find here https://on.soundcloud.com/QUFqo :) 

Today's one (3rd January) was mostly finished in one day.... I got a bit immersed in it ( phew!)! My learning aim for this piece was using distortion ( you van hear it in the lead melodies. crackling away and creating ambience

Day 16 track of Jamuary 2025.  Today's challenge was to use 16-bit sounds to create a track.  Come along on an adventure with Pingo the Porcupine!

Adventures of Pingo the Porcupine

Please don’t let the truth in,
I’m too tired to hear it, 
It’s not that I don’t know it,
Sitting under a halo of lies. 

It’s not my profession, 
No I don’t even have one, 
Because I never grew up, 
My expertise is being alive. 

So many things are just a matter of opinion, 
And honesty could lead to feelings of rejection,
Let’s move the conversation in a good direction, 
Partial omission’s not the same as deception.

Don’t ask me how I feel, don’t ask me what I’m thinking,
Who even knows what’s real, who says it without winking?
I’m panting up the stairs, I’m sleeping six feet under, 
Sweat creeping through my hair, caught halfway through a blunder.

Where are the multiples of me?
How do they speak, how do they breathe?
Inside some galaxy of just a bit more courage,
Do they express themselves completely, do they flourish?

Please don’t let the truth in, 
I’m to scared to hear it, 
It’s not that I can’t see it, 
My vision is mostly fine. 

I guess I have conditions, 
The way I hold you to them,
It’s not fair, it’s misleading, 
I’m just worried you’ll leave me behind.

Please Don't Let the Truth In
