oh, Capel used to be human?! that is really interesting! also, nice track

Fighting Elza is a tricky proposition, and a task not often taken on. Whether she's on the bridge of the Teneritas guiding her crew, in her Exshell, 'Megalode,' or on foot, she has a tendency to completely disappear and she never seems to be quite where you think she is. Feared by some, beloved by many, she's classified as an S-Class level threat in the Earth Federation's jurisdiction.
There has only ever been one other S-Class threat.
Why yes that *is* a reference to an Elancia song. Can you guess which?

Vs Elza

Yet another track that wasn't finished in time for the last HardSpeed album, this one focuses on a volcanic area that was the site of an ancient cosmic event. There's an old decaying lab inside, still powered by ancient generators buried deep within the volcano.

I like this take on Cyber Whiteout better than the other one I did. This one has more of a rock-sound to it, and just feels more natural to me.

straight ahead

From Agoli 5.
After the station's power is turned on, it's time to power-wash the whole thing. Sounds like it's time for a MONTAGE!

FYI, I'm opening a few commission slots starting this weekend. It's the last chance to get my 2016 prices. PM me for more info.

Power Wash MONTAGE

The sky level music from Pop'n Twinbee for SNES. Made in FamiTracker 0.5 with the N163 expansion. I ran out of FamiTracker instruments making all these Vocaloid phonemes for the "lyrics." I exported the audio to my DAW to add stereo and some light effects. Enjoy!

Pop'n Twinbee - Twin Memories (FamiTracker N163 vocal remake)

From my upcoming album, Return to Aloha. Part of the Capel series of albums. This is one of the variants of the "fight" theme from it. I needed to do a couple because it's going to be a pretty big album, so instead of just having one big "showdown" song at the end, I wanted to have a few for various conflicts throughout. This particular one includes bits of "Lost Girl." There's a few things I'd like to fix on this before the album comes out. (Shooting for late spring/early summer with this one.)

Clouded Moonlit Rendezvous

I'm starting to remember how to make music!
This is from my upcoming album Return to Aloha which is looking to be absolutely massive. Not quite Shifting Tides sized, but pretty large. This song ended up being a mishmash of a lot of the different styles I've used over the Capelspace albums. Some New Jack Swing, some Citypop, some Synthwave, I guess? It's weird, but i'm happy with it.

Colony - Night

So I've been binging a lot of 80s anime with my sister for inspiration on Return to Aloha (my next 80s album!!) It's been working out pretty well so far.  Bubblegum Crisis/Crash/AD Police have all been pretty inspiring, as has Macross!
The result here is a fusion of the sounds from those shows, especially AD Police and Macross for this one.  Big thanks to The Ghost Mall for his informative videos on VSTs! I picked up a fresh one (KORG Polysix!) due to them. Also used this song to test out the Roland SoundcanvasVA. Enjoy!

Advanced Federation Police

This one was interesting... I wanted to fuse the sound of an RPG song (read: I've been marathoning the hell out of the Suikoden series again,) with the 80s sounds of Capelspace (since this song is from Return to  Aloha.) In the end, I'm pretty happy with it, even though it's a lot different than the rest of the album! This is the song for when Capel and her friends (or whoever is unlucky enough to be roped into one of her misadventures) explore caves.
Keen listeners will recognize this one from the original Planet Aloha album.

Last WIP from Return to Aloha for now! I'm gonna buckle down and get the album out this month. This was the title track from the second Capel album I was developing (yep, there were two!) ...Which ended up becoming one giant album. So what you're really going to be getting when Return to Aloha releases is both Return to Aloha and its Hardspeed Divide all in one.
HardSpeed Divide was focused more around space combat and Capel dealing with the federation falling apart around her, whereas Return to Aloha was focused on Capel dealing with her memories of Aloha, espionage and her previous human life.  Should make for an interesting mix of moods.

Hardspeed Divide

Composer for Freedom Planet 1 and 2, Star Buster, Miasma Caves, Leilani's Island, HardSpeed and tons more.
Freelance game composer, author and semi-professional race car driver from the west coast. I've been in the game music business for around 10 years.  I have two major projects (HardSpeed: Synthpop/80s) and Elancia (JRPG styled music.)
