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

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.)

Utilize The Individuality [VRC6]

A track off my upcoming (as of yet unnamed) HardSpeed album. This one's a bit more late 70s than 80s! Art is by Proto.

Collab with https://soundcloud.com/lioness-paladin (she did the lead guitars.)
It was nice to get to work with her on one of the songs for the upcoming HardSpeed album! This song shares some DNA with After the Heartache, as well as Royal Lunar Park, and The Rest is Not Enough

Will you love me tomorrow?

I didn't even expect I'd have this one done in time for the album, but it worked out. This is the theme for one of the characters from the HardSpeed project -- A Space-warship named Frank. Don't worry, he's friendly, and spends most his time walking around in a little industrial robot body. He's married to Lurline, whose theme "Shotgun River" was on the last album

Top Shelf

A conversation with a distant self.

Yet another track from my next upcoming album. It includes a couple of little nods to earlier HardSpeed songs.

Wandering Maiden

One of the more chill tracks off my upcoming album, HardSpeed Cross. Thumbnail is by Renz

Undercity

Another track from my album HardSpeed Cross. Definitely one of the moodier tracks. I tried combining a lot of disparate elements here. I ended up quite liking how it sounded. This song more or less is to set the mood of the album, so it'll probably be a pretty early track. Art is by Renz, lead illustrator of HardSpeed and Elancia. https://twitter.com/Azureikaru

Elza has a lot on her mind. She's investigating a string of bizarre violent murders, her family is starting to fall apart, her sister was nearly killed, and her fear of nightmares has her addicted to drugs that prevent sleep. Worst of all, a huge golden monster lurks within her, one the government has taken interest in -- and one who may just be the murderer Elza's been chasing all along.

Neo Noir

Verse and company sneak aboard a train carrying parts for a super weapon that could bring a continent to its knees. Despite this, for most of the people on the train, it's just another day on the job. Verse spends most of the journey being an idiot.
This song replaces one from the old album that I wasn't too fond of. Since it's a pretty important section of the book, I wanted to do something a bit varied.
Art is by Renz!
