Noir Nightmares

Made for the Halloween Sample Pack Contest "mini" event on Discord last year, where you had to make a song using only the samples provided

Jig of the Phantoms

This was made entirely with the Star Fox SNES soundfont except for the cymbals.
It goes a bit beyond the SNES's capabilities, with more than eight channels and some reverb used!

I'm always looking for constructive feedback, so if anything comes to mind feel free to let me know!

Track icon is from the Battletoads arcade game.

Space Conquest [16-bit Action Stage]

An arrangement of Versus from Homestuck, originally by Toby Fox! Super overlooked song, IMO.

Artwork by Knil.

Homestuck - Versus Remix

Beach Time!

Something really short for today - definitely not anything 'final' by any means.

House piano sketch (WIP) (21 Days of VGM - Day 15)

Uses a lot of DKC2 instruments! I wanted to do a lot more with this, but ran out of time. Hopefully I can revisit it some day with a proper B Section, tuned arrangement, etc.

Pirate Ship Sailing through the Storm (21 Days of VGM - Day 17)

Uses instruments from the Donkey Kong Country series with a lone exception of the slap bass being from Super Mario World.

The picture is of background sprites from Donkey Kong Country 2.

Molten Forest Hop (DKC Soundfonts)

Witches' Ritual

An unfinished song from last year that I fixed up ... the intro is actually something I dreamed at that time so I just wrote it in FL really quick and did a skeleton of the rest, then left abandoned. It is finished now!

I consider this a homage to Donkey Kong Country 2, as it utilizes it's instrument samples exclusively. I grew up with series and the games hold a special place in my heart because of that...
