This track was inspired by the Atlas arc (V8) of RWBY, combining original and iterated leitmotifs and themes inspired by the show. It is part atmospheric war-time, part sorrowfully fragile and part coming to terms with how things are. I hope you enjoy it!

Atlas

Hello!
I've been wanting to do something inspired by the likes of Shoji Hidenori and Fukuya Mitsuharu (Yakuza game series), because RWBY as a show quite often features these heavy riffy cues. And it's something that I personally consider immensely satisfying to listen to. The result is this! I am very happy with how the tone and sound of the guitars came together and this was such a personal guilty pleasure to work on. So please be nice to me, this is kind of a first OwO

Protecting Ruby

This happy rocky tune is here to remind us to keep soaring. Inspiration for this track came from the picture and rocky Rainbow music from the show done by the brilliant Daniel Ingram. This album has also been featured on a collab album Spark Magic. Enjoy!

This piece began a long time ago, way before the 7th volume of RWBY concluded. I wanted to make a tribute to both my past and present favorite shows and I set out to compose something that takes the edgy, emotional music of RWBY and ponifies it; mellows it down a little and makes it a bit happier.

It took a long time to finish, and certainly took a lot more effort to complete than I anticipated, but the final fusion makes me feel like I've accomplished the emotions I set out to create. As you listen, I hope this piece makes you remember all the sweet memories and epic moments you experienced while watching these brilliant shows. 

Here's to many more seasons of RWBY and more upcoming music that'll come out a lot sooner from now on again. Keep moving forward...

A Silver-eyed Warrior

The empty feeling that settles inside when something beautiful ends. It may last days, weeks, months. It's something that's natural; something we experience many times in our lives. It's a feeling that helps us identify and remember the beautiful experiences we once had; ones that will stay deeply ingrained within our hearts.

The 4th Generation of MLP had many memorable moments; some happy, some sad, and some quite emotional (I am looking at you, season openings and finales!). Like all great things, they will leave a profound mark deep inside us. This piece is a celebration of all that; the remarkable stories this generation told; the beautiful, talented people who've all come together to create something special; the community that's trying to make the life on Earth a little better for everyone.

Thank you My Little Pony for all these beautiful things. Thank you for being an important part of my life. Thank you for helping me find my way.

Celebrating the Past

We must face it now; there's no time to delay anymore.

I actually wanted to compose something a bit more nuanced (which is coming next) but I was drawing a blank and so decided to fall back on something rougher and more emotional in the form of this epic piece. 

I tried to convey a sense of urgency and unrest in what are very much different segments of a battle theme. Much like the dynamism of a fight, this song goes through various stages of intensity and ultimately culminates in a final buildup that leads to a cliffhanger-style ending.

Overall, I am very pleased with the overall piece and with how the final mix turned out; I definitely learnt a thing or two in the process.

With regards to what's going on out there; please, stay safe everyone. Find enjoyment in solitary or online activities so you don't have to think about what's going on outside. Wash your hands, social distance and keep in touch with your friends and family! I'll make sure to do just that. Until next time <3

Tranquil Evenings

Honestly, the latest RWBY episode (V8 E5 - Amity) was so amazing; it just pulled my heart right out and stomped it to the ground. And I absolutely loved every second of it.

That said, if they hurt Penny again, I am going to riot. This is definitely not the last piece about her and she's what inspired me () to improvise this piece (not a single take but definitely playable.) Just a pure piano and some tape, reverb and delays.

This is kind of uncharted territory for me, but I hope you guys like this piece. There'll be lots more RWBY-inspired pieces to come! This is just the beginning ^_^

Hope you're all staying safe and social distancing. And like me, decide to do something productive from time to time O_O

Those Who Care About Me

This track was inspired by the first half of volume 8 of Rooster Teeth's RWBY series. The pictures might present minor spoilers without context.

Personally, this track represents a lot of firsts for me. A reworked reverb system, more extensive sound design and overall programming and also what I believe to be my most polished work yet. 

Hope you guys enjoy! If you're not familiar with RWBY, I wholeheartedly recommend you check it out. Each season is about 2 hours long, so as a series it is very manageable and it's on hiatus until February. Overall, I think it is a very fine series; well-written, emotional, lots of likeable and developing characters and a brilliant soundtrack by Jeff  and Casey Williams and Alex Abraham.

I also have a Patreon now, so if enjoy my work and are feeling generous, every little bit helps in supporting what I am trying to do. Or, you could buy me a coffee instead which also helps a lot ^_^
