45$ tier, Stage 2 boss WBaWC style.

This is Miyake Masuyo's Theme
She's a shaman who can talk to spirits, human and beast alike.
Because of her origins as a human, I deliberately chose a piano as background instrument, as for me it represents the most human instrument, while the main melodies were brought by instruments that are mostly connected to animals,

[Touhou Style] [Commision] The Shaman and the Divine Beast's Voice

Irre Duellanten (Mad Duelists) , Duel Under The Blue Moonlight

I imagined this song as a battle theme of a spar between two friends of equal footing in prowess. I also had an image of a RPG boss battle when composing this!

This song is quite upbeat with a-lot of jazzy embellishments, chords etc.
Honestly, I just wanted to scratch an itch of attempting a Jazz styled song;;
__________________________________________________________

Saluten!

Today, I present another original, this time with a jazzy twist.
Touhou-style is good and all but I'm trying to branch out a bit.

That said this song still has heavy traces of Touhou, especially in the melodies.  Oh well, sometimes your inspirations leek through, I suppose.
Oh if you're wondering about the sudden German, my school has German language classes so I figured might as well title something in German.

I tried to embellish and vary my chords a bit ( Extensions! Spicy extensions~ ) Put a bit more thought into them. It's so cool how can you make them more expressive by adding some new notes.

I'm actually pretty satisfied with this track! It sounded like what I trying to achieve. A jazz-sounding boss battle theme or so I hope.. 
I do have a gut feeling that It is lacking something but for now it is fine by me.

Still going strong towards my goal of at least 2-3 originals a month!
A road to improvement!

[Commission] Darkness of Fear (Arrange)

Neutrino-like Foe | ニュートリノ的な敵 

"Merry, what is that..?"

Somewhat dark-sounding this song isn't it? 
I made this song with the image of The Sealing Club duo in mind.
They discover something sinister.. I guess?

I actually have not much to say on how this song theme other than it made as a CD song (lol).
__________________________________________________________

Guten Tag! How is it going?
Hope everyone is doing all right always

Today I present another song fresh from the FL oven. This time I experimented a bit with some Trillian arps and drums.
Also tried some excessive pitchbending with the synth strings (maybe a bit inaudible? but it is there I swear!)

Was a bit uninspired before this, so I went on a excessive Touhou-Style music listening spree. Searching here and there for Touhou music by many composers and man it is really incredible how many can capture that ZUN essence so so so well. I really hope I can deliver like them.....

Anyways, this song is partially inspired by songs that heavily utilize Trillian arps such as those by Aka Kyuketsuki (@aka-kyuketsuki) or Armand (@nekonaku). 
Also, a bit of inspiration from  令和時代好奇心 〜 Otherworldly Paradox ( https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBOF5P0SgIbtOsQF3qsVyKP_c8JJrx3BO )

And many more. Do check them and many others out!

I have looked back on my progress thus far and I'm kinda proud that I could could this much, honestly. Still on my goal of 2 or + songs per month.
I hope I don't burn out sometime soon, I really want to expand my composing skills

Thank you so much for listening! Hope we can meet again!

Shenanigans Of The Fantasia Duo ~ À La Terrasse D'un Café

"Renko, this is not a good idea!"
"It'll be fine!"

A song for Dr. Latency and her physicist friend; These two explorers of the unknown know that they aren't the only ones with connections to the intangible and mysterious.

They were curious to find some of these individuals by initiating an albeit silly plan.

Hello hello! Good to see you all again!
Hope everyone is doing all right always during these trying times

Today I want to present something very special, A collab! Not just any collab, but a collab with Armand(@nekonaku) one of my many inspirations. 
Check him out! (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC437117qw1WlTiQZNgCfZRQ)

This is one of my first collabs and you know what, I learned a lot and I'm genuinely glad I got to finish it with them. I was actually scared to even start when Armand offered for a collab. We did lots of cool stuff! Even a bossa nova part! 

We initially had no theme for this song but eventually molded into a pseudo-hiffu style song. This collab took around 2 weeks, alternating the .flp file back and fourth; We worked in sections mostly as in (using timestamps),

0-0:28         (Ocha)
0:29 - 1:13     (Armand)
1:14   -  2:10    (Ocha with embellishments from Armand's 0:29-0:38 section)
2:12  -  2:32  (Melody: Armand; Initial Chords: Ocha)
2:34 - 2:48 (Armand "Bossa Nova Style")
2:50- 3:06  (Melody: Ocha; Chords: Armand)
3:08 - End  (Armand's scrapped melody idea reused; Embellishments by Ocha)

Hope you enjoyed as much as I did, Thank you so much for listening!
Saluten!

太上老君の運試し

day 2 - in a mystical place or something

Here's my third commission! 

Since I began musiclogy college, I've been inspired by what we're curently studying and gave an orchestral feel to this song at some parts. The commissioner asked me initialy to make a rock-ish song that reflects pain and grief so I think the grandeur of the part at   fit perfectly to this feeling.
