I felt inspired and decided to break the rules a bit...

Stardust Speedway (Smooth FM Arrange)

Happy 30th anniversary, Sonic!

I knew I needed to create something to celebrate the milestone, so I decided to arrange SEGA's 3rd favourite zone.

Sonic 3K - Sky Sanctuary (Mega Drive Rearrange)

Decided to see what I could do with such a classic Mega Drive tune. You may know it better as the music for Sonic Megamix's Dark Fortress Act 1, though that really does this game a real disservice, it's one of the greatest MD soundtracks of all time. It's a real shame that this game never made it out of Japan, it looks like a really cool tactics game.

Scarab Fight BGM 3 ~Moon/Mars~ (Mega Drive Rearrange)

Here's a short funk piece I made to check out the vibrato function of Genny VST. Seriously tho, I'm kicking myself that it took this long to figure out how to do vibrato. Well, at least I know how to use it now lol, so expect more use of it in later tracks of mine.

City Lights (FM Original)

I'm working on a little something that's due in about a week and I needed some background music, so I got to work! I tried to make this feel as chill as possible to suit the laidback tone of what I'm doing, so I hope it comes through.

Angel Island Act 1 (Chill Arrange)

Started and finished my runthrough of Deltarune's second chapter and I have to say, this theme has no right kicking this much ass. Thank you Toby for creating such a magical series of games for us all to enjoy!

Hope you enjoy my rendition of this absolute banger of a piece, and if you haven't already played the new chapter, what are you doing bozo? Go play it now!

Smart Race (Mega Drive Arrange)

NOW'S YOUR CHANCE TO BE A BIG SHOT!
Man I love this theme so much, everything from the samples to the sleasy melody and harmony, and that bassline is damn tasty. The abundance of samples made the track difficult to work with but all in all I think it came out real nicely, tho I swear this track alone would destroy cartridge space lmao.

Spamton (Mega Drive Arrange)

Here's another Deltarune banger arranged for the Mega Drive. This was a lot of fun to re-imagine and I'm really happy with how it turned out!

Heya! Here's the result of my very first livestream, of which I made a Sonic CD-esque track over the course of 4 hours! Thank you to everyone who joined it today, it was really fun to interact with everyone and make a song I'm really proud of for you all. Hope to see you all in the next one!

Neptunium Nebula Zone - Present

Great news, I had a good chat with Daan and he's put the Sonic CD PC project back up as for archival purposes! Go check them all out if you haven't already!
https://soundcloud.com/rewind_archive

I've been listening to Rewind Music's Sonic CD PC project for a good while and their final work for it really inspired me, so I just had to make a cover of it.

It's come to my attention that it's no longer up to stream and that the account the project was on has closed due to creative differences, but nonetheless, big, BIG shoutouts to both @dd_prod and @onyxeptable for their incredible work on Sonic CD (PC ver. JP/EU), go check their stuff out!

Hope you enjoy :)

Metallic Madness Past (PC ver. JP/EU) - FM Arrange

I had to compose something for course work that involved sampled media, so I got my trusty hue hue sample and went to town around it. I'm really proud of how this developed, and especially of that solo at the end!

Hope you enjoy this one as much as I do. :)

UPDATE: I got 36/40 for it! Gotta say I'm pretty happy with the mark.

Halcyon Days

I've been checking out MJ's work again lately and remembered that this absolute banger exists, so I decided to give it the proper Mega Drive treatment it deserves. For those who don't listen to much Michael Jackson other than his big hits, you may instead recognise this from Sonic Megamix's City Outskirts Zone Act 1.

Hope you enjoy! :)

Another Part of Me (Mega Drive Rearrange)

With the questionable arrangements of these tracks from Sonic Origins being front and centre in Sonic related discourse, I felt inspired to pick this track back up again from its half complete state that I left it in about a year or two ago.

The goal of this remixing project was to make the beta tracks sound a lot more finished than they were in the beta. To be fair to the originals, they were in a beta state however I still wanted to tackle these tracks anyway since they're full on bops! :P

Hope you enjoy! :)

Sonic 3 Beta - Launch Base 2 (Mega Drive Rearrange)

Special thanks to DeltaWooloo for reminding me that this banger existed. Go check out his version, it's pretty good!

Sonic Advance - Ice Mountain Zone Act 1 (Mega Drive Arrange)

Made this one for Round 1 of the Mega Drive Music Competition, an event run by myself under the Sonic Hacking Contest banner! The prompt for the round was to remix one of the new tracks featured in Sonic Origins, and since I already remixed a grand majority of them, I decided to go with this one to round out the set.

To check out the other entries in the competition, head on over to the Sonic Hacking Contest Discord: https://dc.railgun.works/vacifmjs6x

Sonic 3 Beta - Credits Theme (Mega Drive Rearrange)

This round for the Mega Drive Music Contest, participants were tasked with arranging one of the zone themes from Sonic 2 to suit a Past, Good Future or Bad Future counterpart, and so I decided to do a chilled bossa rendition of Aquatic Ruin Zone's theme to fit what I imagine the Past of it would sound like.

If you wish to vote this round, or even participate in the next round, please hop on over to the Sonic Hacking Contest Discord: https://shc.zone/discord
The third round will be announced in the new year, so stay tuned if you're looking to enter!

Hope you enjoy! :)

Aquatic Ruin Zone - Past (Mega Drive Arrange)

Hey, long time no see! Sorry for the lack of content, life got busy as it often does and I hadn't really had an opportunity to do much. In any case, what got me to finally compose something after a long stretch of nothing was another uni assignment, and I'm glad it got me to compose again because it's always a blast being able to look back and say "hey I made that"! Let's hope for good results :)

Hey there! For Round 4 for the Mega Drive Music Competition, rigid_atoms chose the prompt of "no 4/4 time", and so I chose to cover Casino Paradise 2. Somehow, despite all odds, it managed to get joint first place with John Tay's entry. Go check it out using the link below! Also linked is the SHC Discord if you wish to participate yourselves. :)

I'm back with another FM funk slapper! Consider this one an ode to Joshua Morse, the King of New Jack Swing. :)

Get a Grip (FM Original)

Heya, how are you all doing? I got inspired and made this over about 4 hours instead of sleeping a couple days ago. Hope you enjoy! :)

Sonic 3K - Lava Reef Zone Act 1 (FM Arrange)

Hey! Long time no see. Pardon the huge gap between uploads, shit's getting busy haha. This track was made mostly thanks to an urgent assessment, tho I think I went a little overboard with it. Let's hope for good marks!

Thanks for listening :)

Haze (FM Original)

Heya, hope you like Vectorman. 

Special thanks to PsychoRFG for the song request for his upcoming Sonic hack. It will be featured in there somewhere.

Vectorman - Ocean/Tidal Surge [YM2612+SN76496 Rearrange]

Heya! Here's the first track of a series of rearranges/remixes I've been working on of the Sonic 3 Prototype tracks. I'm gonna be releasing more of these in the coming weeks, so stay tuned! ^o^

Truth be told, I've had a lot of these sitting around on my hard drive for a while, and I figured it'd be great to properly release them.

The goal of this remixing project was to make the beta tracks sound a lot more finished than they were in the beta. To be fair to the originals, they were in a beta state however I still wanted to tackle these tracks anyway since they're full on bops! :P

For all of the S3 proto remixes, I used VOPM and SN-EMU whilst keeping strictly to the Mega Drive's limits (for compatibility's sake).

I hope you enjoy! ^-^

Sonic 3 Beta - Competition Menu (Mega Drive Rearrange)

Psst... I think it's time for another S3 proto upload! ^o^

Here's one of my favourites, Carnival Night Act 1!

Sonic 3 Beta - Carnival Night 1 (Mega Drive Rearrange)

Heya, here's another S3 proto track! This week it's Launch Base 1! ^o^

When I first heard this tune in the proto, I actually didn't like this tune whatsoever. The melody and countermelody both took up 2 channels each which is really wasteful. The base composition is fine though, so I reworked it to better use the Mega Drive setup and bring out how good the tune actually is!

Sonic 3 Beta - Launch Base 1 (Mega Drive Rearrange)

It's been a while since I posted one of these. Carnival Night 2 has to be one of my favourite S3 beta tracks! It just sounds so fun and full of life, and so I tried capturing some of that fun in this cover!

Sonic 3 Beta - Carnival Night 2 (Mega Drive Rearrange)

Here's the next S3 proto tune! The original Ice Cap 2 wasn't actually very different from the Act 1 version, so I made sure to differentiate my two versions a bit in more than just instrumentation. I doubled down on the more tense feel that Act 2 brings, and I think it really nicely contrasts against my Act 1!

Petal Crash has quickly become my favourite game at the moment, and part of that is due to the incredible soundtrack composed by Michael Staple (@djmaxeofficial)! I had to pick one to remix and Lilibri's theme happened to be it.
