This is the Level Music written for Runnin' Hot, a third-year University project.

The game is a 3D runner/platformer set in a neon-clad underworld.
The protagonist, Nox, is was cursed with burning feet after being caught stealing, now they are running from the authorities as platforms fall all around him.

I took inspiration for this track from Green Hill Zone in the original Sonic the Hedgehog.

Here's a cover of Heart Attack In A Layby by Porcupine Tree. I covered this in 2014 but it was never really complete, so I re-created the project.

I've played all acoustic, electric and bass guitars. Vocals are me and everything else is programmed by me.

Addictive Drums 2
Melodyne 5 Essential

A remaster of a cover that I made in early 2017.

All guitar, bass and vocal parts are me. I programmed the whole drum track using the original song as a reference. A lot of the keyboard parts were taken from a pretty complete Guitar Pro export that's floating around the internet, then changed/fiddled with (a. lot.)

Anesthetize (Porcupine Tree cover)

The soundtrack to world 3 of KID ICARUS (NES) reimagined as a fusion jazz track with a latin flavor! This game was near and dear to me as a child! Thanks to Hirokazu 'Hip' Tanaka for the original composition!!

This track is dedicated to the greatest Kid Icarus runners of all time and recent memory: fruitbatsalad, aisnake, Jorf, and Darkwing Duck.
