This is something I prepared just in case I had been selected for weekly treats, but it didn't happen LOL. So you guys get my first true track of 2014! This one was fun. I really pushed myself here and I hope it shows. Maybe someday I can put together an album of songs like this for a net label like ubiktune or something. I will keep working on my sound and see if I can't round up a nice collection of the Best of Jredd tunes or something. What do you guys think? If I made a bunch of progressive rock, jazz, and funk tunes would I be good enough to give them some current tracks? Or do you feel given the high quality that this place has for their music that I'd need to push a little harder? If you do think my current tracks are good enough, which ones do you recommend? I have a few ideas myself but I could always use a second opinion! Thanks!

Patch Notes:

Creating warm additive sounds with the Pip LFO, Pip Filter and Pip Slope which combine to form a compact but flexible 12hp analogue synth voice. 

With VCO mode engaged, the bipolar triangle wave out of the Pip LFO is patched through the Pip Filter with its cutoff and built in VCA modulated by the Pip Slope’s envelope. The cutoff is reduced and the unipolar sine out of the Pip LFO is patched to the attenuated cutoff CV input of to begin FMing the circuit once the attenuverter is increased. Combined with increased resonance, this additive technique adds subtle, buzzy harmonics to the filtered triangle wave, producing a plethora of unique mellow tones depending on the filter settings. This wide ranging additive patch is one of the many ways the compact ‘Pip voice’ can be creatively patched.

Made for BotB's Spring Tracks VI! This one takes a lot of inspiration from old gameboy tunes, and I did my best to try and replicate the limitations of the gameboy sound hardware in bytebeat.

About:
In the heart of space, a lone pilot endeavours across the galaxy. His cargo: ten-thousand tons of Yttrium, and the immeasurable weight of years of solitude...
He lands on the carbon planet 55 Cancri e. Four times two the mass of Earth and four halves the radius, it reaches temperatures of 2,150 °C (3,900 °F). The pilot, profusely sweating, finds the galaxy's most remote musicians, the Four Men. The four men write all of their songs together, simultaneously. Will this eternal curse of solitude fade away? Godspeed...

01. Return to the Boneyard

I wanted to have a bit of fun covering something from this game! Figured it'd be appropriate to take the Dracula X style for this.

Collab I did with POLARIA POYON for the Chiptune = WIN Vol. 7 expansion release. Big ups to ChipWIN and Tracked Records for including our track, many blessings 🙏🙏🙏

PP's SC, she's far more well-versed in SN7 than I am so I'd recommend checking her out:

Tracked ✕ ChipWIN: MK-8001 S1 (feat. POLARIA POYON)

unfinished. sound and feel wise, it's a vague tribute to the dark world of the Zelda game on super nintendo. got lucky with picking the sounds, but i couldn't get a good mix with them yet. the ending is just not finished, needs more creative juices.

i like it so far. could be much more.

A track I had a lot of fun to do in the end of last summer, and never had a chance to find the inspiration to give it a proper conclusion. Still gave me new interesting perspectives on percussions and song structure !

Driving Forward [Original Track]

Hi there! I make videogame-inspired music with some occasional chiptune thrown in.

I also do covers once in a blue moon.
