I like the chill nature of this piece. Very nice acoustic guitar ostinatos giving it swing.

Leila I gotta say you really have a hand for "soundtrack" music, every song feels as if it was telling a story; its very easy to imagine a tale or a situation/atmosphere with your tunes. I wonder if theres any animations or games youve worked for?

I'm writing my idea of lyrics for this song-- [Chorus]  Summer seems to always go /  Someone seems to always know /  Who's to blame or so they claim /  Now on the run /  What is true and what is not /  Can't live off of only rot /  Watchdogs fall and fortune calls /  armed with a gun

[Soft piano chorus]  Some things in this world /  can be said to never end /  But safety and warmth and a home /  None of these are one of them /  Look left, look right /  Then just keep moving on /  But in my heart, now I know /  I'm singing a winter song, 'cause /   [Chorus 2]  Winter seems to always come /  Splintered though as I've become /  Frost will find and bite my mind /  Tear me apart /  Broken bones and shattered hearts /  Blood is spilled across the yard /  Still I see their eyes when I /  look to the stars /

[Verse 2]  See you there /  All of the facts are laid bare /  For me to uncover with care /  Like a map from here /  To the place that I /  swore I would never look back to /   [Verse 2 part 2]  It's done, it's gone /  But I'm living on /  The time flies away /  But I'm stuck on the ground /  It's time to go /  But I already know /  The ones that I want to see /  will not be around /

[Soft piano chorus 2]  Some things in this world /  can be said to never end /  But love and life and agony /  none of these are one of them /   Look left, then look right /  Got to keep moving on /  But deep down I know /  I'm still singing my winter song /   [Chorus 3]  Summer seems to always go /  Someone seems to always know /  Why my heart was torn in two /  Could it be true? /  Something in me knows what's wrong /  Sun is up and days are long, but /  I'm still singing my /  winter chorus for you

[Verse] This death and dismay /  can't take away /  the things you've said to me before /  It's a longer war /  Can't be sated /  Oh how long we've waited /  for you to be here /  No longer I fear /   [Verse part 2] It's done, it's gone /  But I'm living on /  The time flies away /  But I'm stuck on the ground /  It's time to go /  But I already know /  The ones that I want to see /  will not be around /

More from my HardSpeed project. This is the theme for Dizzy (short for Dizzielda,) Elza's co-captain (and wife) on their space pirate ship, the Teneritas. Dizzy is a mechanoid, and as such, faces a lot of discrimination due to her race. Elza is incredibly protective of her. 
Dizzy was originally programmed as a tour guide bot. Although her knowledge has grown extensively, and she's got a shiny new combat frame that can vaporize a monster a quarter mile away, she still enjoys being helpful and guiding tours of the ship. She's incredibly emotional underneath that stoic faceplate of hers. (Yes, she wears clothes. No, I don't know why she insists on it.)

Summer Nights (reversed) original by ModalModule

Finally fixed up the intro theme for the 4th Elancia album. Took me a while. Mixed in a leitmotif or two... Quite happy with how it came out.

Everyone's carrying something across the frontier...

Burden

A sun-drenched ranch in Elancia's frontier. A lone drifter just looking for a hot meal and a warm bed. The bandit gang, the bloodbath, and the aftermath.

This song had to be a lot of things. I wanted it to represent the ranch before and after (but not during) the aforementioned bloodbath in the storyline. The drifter awakening to find the ranch still intact, but the bodies of of its former occupants and the bandits, while some of the animals just roam freely around the grounds as if nothing had changed.

Some folks might not dig it, but I'm happy with the result. It references 'Burden' as do a lot of songs on the 4th Elancia album. Enjoy.

This is another collection of VGM and VGM-inspired works from me. Some of these were one-off commissions or smaller projects, others were tests or experiments that I think are neat and want to send out to the world.

I hope when you listen you can enjoy a trip through various virtual worlds.

Love's Eternal Path

Silent rivers carry the weight of forgotten crowns, flowing beneath towers of faded crimson and bones of light. In the stillness, symbols fracture and shadows ascend, molding echoes into monuments of memory. The current meanders through unseen depths, and in its movement lies the promise of renewal: a hidden force of sacred waters that never cease to flow.
