Leila 'Woofle' Wilson

New Playlist

even more chiptunes n shit like that

Work in progress. Contains some tracks from Season 1. 
Versearrun delves deep into memories of days gone by, to try and make sense of the present, all while being ordered around by a tiny, angry, obese dog. I'm sure there's more to the story than that..!

Best Of Leilani Wilson (Subjective)

My remix, "Timekeeper", from the Sonic CD OverClocked ReMix album, Temporal Duality. Download this remix and the rest of the project here: http://soniccd.ocremix.org

Timekeeper

Something else from that life-consuming project of mine. This song is for a very, very windy canyon that has been the basis for all kinds of wind-based experiments using ancient technology. 
(I'm 99% sure this clips in places. Sorry about that, if it does.)

Windy [Day]

Character theme from a personal project. A collaboration with Kamu/Kamiyana/Kami/Awesome guy! Here's his page! 
https://soundcloud.com/kamiyana
He says he'll be putting out a piano version soon!
It was really fun to work with him. Enjoy!

Kéos (Feat. Kamiyana)

More from that personal project (big surprise, right?)
The focus of this particular theme is a huge festival that takes place every year before a massive storm. Were it not for this incredibly timeliness (really, it's rather precise in its arrival) country this festival takes place in would be very arid.  Anyway, all that aside, as the song goes on, more things join in, and pretty soon... well, you'll see.
Big thanks to Kamiyana for helping me out with the percussion on this one. 

Festival Of Storms

Another field map theme from my personal project. This, and the two other versions of it (Day; https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/southern-kerlynzia-field ) (Night; https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/southern-kerlynzia-field-night ) all play in one of the nations in this project. The torrential rainstorm that occurs, and brings about this field map theme is the central focus of the part of the story where the characters are in this country.  [/endless rambling]

Also, I'm starting to run out of time here on my account. I'm saving for a pro account, so I can share more music with you all, though! I hate to ask for money, and won't. However, if you'd like to help, I have an album for sale on bandcamp! It features my music for an upcoming game, Chronicles of Wyndia by Toonsmoosh productions! If you pick up a copy, I'll be able to get that pro account faster, and share more with ya'll. Check it out if you're so inclined!

Symphony Of Heartless Certainty [RAIN]

First of all, thank you everyone (especially Curtis!!) I finally was able to go pro! That means you're stuck listening to a lot of my crap. PREPARE FOR EAR BLEEDING!

Anyway, this is another song from my personal project. The focus of it is an ancient village deep in the woods, that was once inhabited solely by fox-people, who lived peacefully away from civilization. Hundreds of years later, the village is still there, but all sorts of people live there now, and it's been more incorporated into the 'modern' era of the game's world. That said, a bit of the spirit still lingers...

FUN WITH TIME SIGNATURES! :D

Deep Forest

As with 99% of my other crap, this is from that personal novel/game project. 
This song plays in more relaxed scenes, when the characters have a little time to themselves. 
For the most part, they spend this free time gambling, drinking, or just being total dicks to each other, because that's the kind of group we're dealing with.  

I started out trying to stay authentic to the genre, but sort of fell into discount Sonic CD halfway through. This song was mostly inspired by the game Deadly Premonition and its infamous 'whistle theme'. Enjoy! 

Cool Story

This is the counterpart song to the Celestion piece. Dascillia is a much more technologically advanced country directly to the north of Celestion. Dascillia has railroads, guns, steam power, and gas lanterns (most of which are only just barely catching on in Celestion.)  
Currently, Dascillia has cast off its ties with the church of the Goddess Elia, and taken up worship of a person (or perhaps an idea) known as the God of Fate. This, of course, makes the church of Elia a tidbit displeased, and soon enough, they've dispatched their private Holy Army to put a stop to all this 'demon worship.'  In the end, Celestion, having little seperation of church and state, gets sucked into what becomes a war, and the player's group, who really just kind of wants to get the heck out of Celestion, ends up caught up in the conflict.

Symphony of Blistered Skies [Dascillia Field]

From the first 'season' of my project.

Throughout the course of the first season, the countries of Dascillia and Celestion are at war. One country is supported by the army of the church of the Goddess, Elia. The other has received a few garrisons of men from the Aegiys Guard, a highly trained religious group that worships many Gods.
These two groups wage war via Celestion and Dascillia, in one of the first direct conflicts between the two religions in Elancian history.
Unfortunately for both countries, they are now tearing each other apart for reasons far bigger than either of them, and the ones who pay the heftiest price are those caught in the middle.
The player group rather unfortunately runs head-long into this conflict on an un-related task, and their destinies are forever altered. 

This song carries the leitmotif from the first season, "Blistered Skies" which can be heard in all 3 field maps for season 1, and the season 1 ending. :D

War Torn Fields

I've actually been making a ton of music for this project lately, I've just been afraid to post it too fast. >~>; I'm also sitting on about 200 songs I've already written for it, but I digress.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mitala Village is first seen in the first season, while the group (of five, at that point) first crosses the border from Celestion ( https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/symphony-of-blistered-skies ) into Dascillia ( https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/symphony-of-blistered-skies-1 )

Depending on the time of day when the party reaches the Dascillia side, either this, or the night version plays.
Mitala isn't a very big town, and mostly thrives on the mines nearby that travel under the river separating the two countries.   
Before the war, these mines were caught up in court, due to the fact that it couldn't be determined where exactly they were, in relation to the border, but now that the war has started, it looks like that is no longer a worry.
It isn't a particularly large town, but a pleasant one, nonetheless. War hasn't yet touched it. 
---------------------------------------------------------------------
No idea how that square wave snuck in there, seriously! >_>; Blame Marcb0t!

Prairie Life [DAY]

This is a scene song from my personal project, Elancia Chronicles.
-
This plays during scenes of regret -- especially immediately after mistakes are made, and the consequences have played out.  These scenes are often dialogue-heavy, as characters generally don't just 'move on' in this story. It takes them a long time to process what they've seen, internalize it, and try to sort out exactly what they think and feel as a result.
-
Honestly, I'm moooostly happy with it, but there's a couple parts I will be going back to iron out later (for instance, there's one place where I completely screwed up while recording the guitar track. xD)

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.]

Super Mario World Castle Theme Remix

I'm finally back to a point in my life where I can focus on the 2nd album in the ECO series, Season 2 - Symphony of Heartless Certainty.  I had to go back and fix some of the writing in season 1's story, along with getting all the illustrations by a group of very talented artists inserted into it (Fortuna, Sorcerer Lance, and Cainethelongshot, as well as a special guest! Thank you all!) 

With that almost done though... it's time to finally get back to what I've been putting off for a year. This second album! Here's a taste -- the first track you'll hear. I'm pretty sure this album will have around 90 songs on it like the first album, but we'll see what the future holds! It really all depends on where the story takes the us...

Season 2 Title Screen

From ECO! :D This is the theme that plays in the two palaces in the country of Kerlynzia. In season 2, it is heard in the palace within the walls of the southern capital, Auraimsho.  It includes a bit of Kerlynzia's national anthem, too.
"The palace was something people talked about having seen, or had been by, when I was little. I heard it was a really special place, full of history and whatnot (at least after the last capital got wiped out a few hundred years back.) Anyway, my expectations were a bit different from reality. Given, I was being taken in as a prisoner when I first really got a close look at it, but it looked less fantastical and more... imposing. In time, it became part of what I came to know as 'home.' It was always there, watching over me and the other children in the barracks, as we busted our knuckles and broke our bones training to defend it." ~ Versearrun's diary

"Open Your Eyes" Instrumental

Finally finished https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/symphony-of-heartless-certainty-practice
This will replace one of the older field map themes in season 2 of ECO.
There are a few leitmotifs included in this one that aren't in the daytime version. I felt this was appropriate due to the fact that Verse is given a little more time to think when traveling at night.

Kerlynzia Field - South [NIGHT]

Art by Renz.
Very early WIP of the OP from the second book/album in my series, Elancia Chronicles. It includes a lot of different tunes from the second and first albms in medley at the moment, but the final probably will not. It's going to be a long time before I finish this either way, as I have a lot of work pertaining to the first book to do before it releases in spring. The first album is already done and on sale right now, though!  https://www.goalpublications.com/store/p37/symphony-of-shifting-tides-album.html

[Early WIP] Get by Again

Art by Renz! 
Slowly working my way through the second Elancia Chronicles album to get it to a state where I'm totally happy with it. This song's been one that bugged me for a while -- not because the old version was bad or anything. It just didn't quite nail the feeling I was going for. I'm a lot happier with this one. It definitely fits Verse exploring her homeland again. 
As many of you may be able to tell, I took a lot of inspiration from the Suikoden series (mostly 1, 2 and G1/G2!) for this particular map theme.

Kerlynzia Field - South [DAY]

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

Back to Elancia music finally, and more Renz art! As you guys all know (you DO know, right???) the second Elancia album has officially released and you can grab it here! https://www.goalpublications.com/store/p93/symphony-of-hunted-truths-album.html

This track right here is off the third album which is a long ways off,  and is the theme of one "Dark" Derrik Lancaster, the self-proclaimed king of all pirates. Despite him making the title himself, he's held it for an absurd amount of time. The first stories of his exploits are at least 50 years old, and he really doesn't look that old at all (and he's probably too lazy to have done all the things in those stories.) He's amassed quite a following, and his crew is feared the world over. Beneath his bravado, he seems to be carrying a burden that effects every facet of his life. He's not the type to open up about it, but it may soon destroy him.

High Seas King

So, as I've probably been mentioning a lot, both the second Elancia album and book, Symphony of Hunted Truths, have released (let me know if you picked up either!) That means I'm well on my way into working on the third. This is the "OP" for the as-of-yet-untitled book 3. While the OPs for the first two books were a lot more upbeat (and both shared some leitmotifs) the third book (and third album) have their own mood. I wanted to set the tone for that right off the bat with a much more emotional/slower opening theme.  This song actually first appeared on Roadtrips, of all places, although some Elancia leitmotifs are mixed in. Enjoy! Art of Verse is by Renz!

Under The Moons In The Rain

Night time arrangement of https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/tempestuous-ravine for the upcoming third Elancia album. I wanted to try and do a more subdued arrangement for the song overall, but I still like the original, so both will be on the album. It was fun to do a 'cute' sounding song for once! Enjoy.

Windy [Night]

Newer take on https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/imperial-palace?in=leila-wilson-woofle/sets/symphony-of-awakened-gods for the third Elancia album, Symphony of Awakened Gods. I like this one a little better, really. It shows a bit more of the serious/militaristic side of the Empire and its ruling class, but they're both going on the album!
