HardSpeed: Conflux

study 2024-2025

A playlist for a specific set of tracks from the HardSpeed project. Gathered up for no particular reason and totally not part of an evil plot to create something new with the project that will take years and years and years to complete. Enjoy.

HardSpeed Project

A playlist of some of the songs I like best by Leilani "Woofle" Wilson, one of my all time favorite composers! Please note that I am not affiliated with her in any way, I just love her work.

Her SoundCloud: 
https://soundcloud.com/leilani-r-wilson

Her Bandcamp: 
https://leilawilson.bandcamp.com/

Please go buy all of her music, she deserves all your love and support! Also make sure to go buy Freedom Planet and it's soundtrack, as well as Freedom Planet 2, which is out now! You may also wanna check out the in-development Starbuster and Prototype N that she's doing music for. Again I am not affiliated with Leilani Wilson, nor am I paid to say this, I just like her music a lot and believe she deserves your support.

Best Of Leilani Wilson (Subjective)

I'm about 99% happy with this. This song will be the ED for the 4th Elancia album once it's finished. I've had it sitting on the backburner for so long that I thought I'd share. I'll post the link to the final here once it's done. Sketches are by Renz!

Old Folktale

'nother Elancia song here.
Life in Claratine City out on the fringes of the country of Pratz (right on the border with the Empire) is pretty rough. Miners drink a lot, and drifters passing through in search of a quick buck tend to play rough, too. The steam machines are on, doing their best all day and night. There are huge gears and lots of conveyor belts all over town. Verse and her group stop by on their way further north, beyond the borders of either country. Verse has a dark secret in this town. One she'd forgotten for a long, long time. Being here makes her very, very uncomfortable.

Claratine Minetown

'nother album, 'nother rendition of WhiteOut. You know what it do.
I'm a lot happier with this arrangement than my last attempt to adapt the tune into HardSpeed. This fits what I'm going for a little bit better! Enjoy!
Sketch by Renz

Cyber WhiteOut

It was nice to get back into doing a little Elancia music between everything else. The 4th album is chugging along, but has been delayed (for now.) That said, I'm still working on it whenever I can.
With that outta the way, this is the theme for Mei. A mysterious drifter, who has some history with Aria and Fiend. Mei is incredibly reckless and is (almost) as apathetic as Verse. Unlike Verse, Mei works these feelings out by blowing things up and robbing banks. Mei lives an aimless life, following the wind whichever way it blows and getting into trouble wherever it leads. Always looking for another thrill, that wildflower.

WildFlower

'nother tune from my Elancia project. This one is about a little town in a river canyon where Verse and co. stop on their journey. Verse is trying to save her dying friend in a race against time, but this town provides a little respite. She sits with him by the river's edge, and they talk a while.

Somewhere Else, Somewhere Beautiful

Tsu'ghui unit 32 embarks on what should be a routine operation on planet Exillion. The target is in a mansion bigger than any of them have seen before, but they won't let that stop them from doing their job. (Probably.)

For my girlfriend's comic! forgot to make this public back when I uploaded it.

Campus

Trying to get back into the swing of working on music. This is a remake of a much older song, so it was a lot easier for me to do than making something completely fresh.

Highway

Another piece I did to try and get back into working. It's been harder than I thought. Enjoy another Hardspeed-ized redo of an older song for now!

Science Department [Night]

Throughout HardSpeed's narrative, there is a group of recurring midbosses who think they are the main villains. I decided to give them their own theme for when they're doing a monologue at you while you're just trying to go about your day.

Lackey

One of the character-focused themes off my new album.
Lurline is a cyborg-foxillian, and a former Federation Admiral who fell in love with her ship's AI. 
The two of them ran off together and started a restaurant and bar. Lurline's from a back-water planet and grew up out in the sticks, so I incorporated a bit of country into her theme.

Dear SEGA, I hear that legal troubles regarding Sonic 3's original soundtrack might be part of what's holding you back from a re-release of Sonic 3 ( www.sonic3remastered.com/ More info here)
I suggest an alternative solution to trying to get the rights to use the songs that are currently providing a roadblock in greenlighting the project.

Signed sincerely,
A lifelong fan
NOTE: I did not adhere to the polyphony limits of the sound chip.

[I knew there was no way I could 'outdo' the original song, and that was not my aim here. I set out to make something very different using most of the same instruments. Enjoy!]

[Rather than paring act 2 down like the original song did, I ramped it up. I couldn't resist paring it down in a few spots to bring back the feeling of isolation the original had in spades.]

Nothing was stolen though, I think they just needed a place to sleep ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I sat down to play my feelings out on the piano and it wound up not being angry at all.

My car was broken into last night...

to everyone who's been asking "where's streetlamp?" for the past few months.... i am happy to tell you, it's FINALLY HERE! when this tune was sent to us it came as a complete surprise - Asymmetric was a name we weren't familiar with. so many great things could be said about this song, but you'll just have to listen and hear the magic for yourself <3 truly a masterpiece, definitely follow Asymmetric, he may or may not have an EP for Night Owl in the works ;)
just 1 more song left from FTV3.... *cries* stay tuned...

Asymmetric - Streetlamp

Back during the original run of Planet Aloha (before I revamped everything in Return, even!) I never got around to making a song for the science/botany department. I didn't for the Military, either, which I've since rectified. Now science finally has its own song 5 years later! anyway, I'd first set out to make Qeshi his own theme for the project, but I accidentally made this instead. It ended up working out well.
Enjoy~

Science Department

I got hired (along with two other fantastic musicians!) to do a song for this pretty rad project called StarBuster!  This is the theme for the intro stage, which is the only one I've done so far. This game really deserves a look! You can read more about it and play the demo here; https://www.sonicfangameshq.com/forums/showcase/starbuster-demo.373/

Awaken

Even more HardSpeed music! Elza concept art by Renz.
Space Pirate Elza is notorious across Federation Space. Despite the fact that only ever steals food, ammunition and fuel for her ever-growing crew. Elza has only been sailing the stars for 10 years, but is one of the most wanted pirates in the Galaxy simply for the fact that she likes to taunt the Federation. No one knows quite what the federation did to her, but it must have been bad. Some say that's where all the scars on her face came from. Some kind of experiment gone wrong during the mechanoid wars perhaps? Maybe they took her children from her?  
Elza considers herself the first member of the "Galaxy's free peoples," and believes in free love, free-flowing booze and not having to listen to anybody. She embraces pirate aesthetic, too.  One last fun fact: All the Tsu'ghui look exactly like her. Is she behind the Tsu'ghui attacks?
(And yes, her character design is literally orange spaceVerse. :| )

Space Pirate Elza

Another HardSpeed song here! This is the battle theme for the Tsu'ghui, a mysterious race of killer clones. It seems like they're being controlled by someone.
The beginning of HardSpeed's narrative follows a squad of Tsu'ghui on a routine mission that turns out to be anything but. I wanted their battle theme to differ heavily from the normal battle theme.

TsuGhuiBattle

New HardSpeed track.
This one has to do with more thoughtful, pensive moments for the characters -- specifically Capel, the main character. Capel barely even understands how people work, and yet she desperately wants to live among them. Every step forward is two steps back. Sometimes, she isn't even sure it's worth it to keep trying.
-
Mostly done using the Korg Wavestation. I started out trying to decipher the patterns one of the presets had, and ended up reproducing the sounds manually instead. From there, the rest of the song formed. :V

Steady Lights

This will be the first track on my upcoming album, HardSpeed. It serves as the opening text crawl more or less. It has a little more orchestral flair than most of the other HardSpeed music. Part of this is due to the main character of this album, Sydney, being a cello player. (Don't worry, Capel still appears.)
I've been working on something big-ish behind the scenes related to HardSpeed as a whole, and this song was definitely a good step in getting it started. For now, expect a new album out sometime this summer!

Ignition

This is the first track off my new album, HardSpeed https://leilawilson.bandcamp.com/album/hardspeed which, as you can see, is up for sale now! There are a few tracks on it that are not on SoundCloud. Please consider supporting my work, and enjoy the music! ♥

As those of you who have read the Elancia books and/or followed me for a long time know, the Elancia stories are all very much western-inspired. As the stories go on, they get even more so... This song helps represent that shift, I feel. Enjoy!

Frontier [Verse]

Night version of https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/border-town  from Elancia Chronicles' 4th album (the 3rd one is already out, you know!)
Like the day arrangement, this has a lot of inspiration from the Suikoden Series (my favorite game series.)
Guandipi is a town on the border of the Northern Frontier Wasteland in the Kerlynzian Empire. The town is mostly known as one of the major railway stops between the south (green) and north (desert) parts of the Kerlynzian Empire. Mining and Agriculture are the two major things this town does. Verse and her friends have a lot of thinking and important decisions to make in this town.
