Original work *attempting* to adhere to the physical limitations of classic NES music to the best of my knowledge and within regular music software. Strongly inspired by Mario Kart...

8-Bit Race Theme

A track I wrote for a calm town by a meadow or something along those lines

Orchestration practice; I'm trying to get better at that now

Early evening

Jazz standard "All of Me" contrafacted (=writing a new melody on top of existing chords) and then reharmonized afterwards. No solos because I don't have the time :(

All of Theseus

Reharmonization and piano arrangement of the jazz standard "Blue in Green" by Miles Davis. I still need practice learning to play it.
8BMT Discord YOTJ January submission.

Blue In Green Reharm (piano)

A sonata form piano piece (or at least an attempt), supposed to be the theme of a comedic villain of sorts. Also a submission for a composing challenge, with the prompt being to write a piece in sonata form

haha funny villain

Brachydios' theme from MH3U rearranged as if it was a lullaby because???

sleepydios

kind of bossa but not really-elevator music or something

Arrangement of "Stage 2" from Kirby's Block Ball.

"The elevator has just arrived on floor 2"

Original music written by me. Part of a small mock-up soundtrack of sorts.

This one is a home town theme, for a town that's far away from most civilization, generic medieval fantasy setting, maybe up in the mountains, rarely visited by anyone else, kinda quiet. It's the town where the main character of the story I'm basing this on resides at the start of the story. Really dramatic for a home town theme but there's a lot of melancholy to the plot and MC so it's to depict all of that.

Maybe I'll eventually write about the plot here idk, it's essentially an edited rip-off of Olberic's story from Octopath Traveler.

Big thanks to the 8BMT Discord server for providing helpful feedback, along with the challenge prompts that I'm using for inspiration to do do this! 
(Year of the Orchestra, a series of orchestration challenges that has been going on for the past year and a previous year's Year of the VGM challenge)

Still, interminable

uhhhhh yeah

not entirely finished, I wish I had the time to work those transitions out better

also art by me also not finished also

written for a weekly challenge at the 8BMT discord.

dark souls-inspired

Second track of a small orchestral mock-up soundtrack. I hadn't written a love theme before but I think that apart from getting derailed a little in later sections, maybe it works? I think it would score a point in the story where the main character and his love interest realize their love for each other and then it further developes from there. 

Written for Year of the Orchestra, a series of orchestration challenges over at the 8-Bit Music Theory Discord server, that has been going on for the past year and a previous year's Year of the VGM challenge.

This is a track I wrote for a weekly composition/arrangement challenge held in the 8-Bit Music Theory Discord server. The prompt for 2020 week 37 was "Ambiance".

Still Night

A piece I composed for the 8BMT Discord Weekly Challenge. The prompt for 2020 week 39 was to write a Superhero Theme. I used a lot of time on this, but I ran out of time before I could finish it, so some parts are a little rushed.
