IKarus - ???? (WIP)

My goal this year is to finish up this project, here's hoping I actually do it.

[Cave Story] Cave Story - SEGA Genesis/FM Arrangement

This goddamn song has been stuck in my head all day so here's to hoping its out of my system now.

Super Mario Land - Ruins (SMS/Game Gear)

Here we gooo! This is my first OSC entry. With this piece, I experimented mashing together some basic EDM tendencies with weird speed funk drums and an arcade shoot-em-up style composition. This was a fun challenge; limitation seems to be my best source of inspiration so far. This whole process taught me a lot about what I should be focusing on in terms of song structure and sound design. Now it's time to dig into other Surge submissions and see what crazy stuff I didn't think of!

I used 33 instances of Surge. 9 of them are for reinforcement or double-tracking, though, so it's more like 24. All creative FX are from Surge's FX alone.

Channel FX used: 5x Fruity Limiter (2 for light comp on kick/snare and 3 for sidechain), 1x Fruity Parametric EQ2 for some gentle mix highpassing, 2x Maximus to beef up the drums and bass busses a little. I tried to keep it mostly barebones to maintain the feel of Surge.

Ride to Hell

Communicate (Instrumental Demo)

New cover! It's the boss theme from Donkey Kong Land, but you may also recognize it from Blast Corps, as DKL's composer Graeme Norgate used a modified arrangement of this song in that game.

I tried to do my own thing with the percussion, keeping it in the spirit of the original but adding more variety for different sections of the song.

Shoutout to the Project+ devs for putting this song in the 2.0 build, it's been stuck in my head ever since!

Stuck In, Summer Time

My very first full length composition, super proud of it.

Couldn't really think of a title but I turned 23 around the time i finished it so I decided that that would be it's name. Hope it's not a racist number or something.
