CJ’s Compilation of Favorite Compositions

CJ's Spooky Stuff!

What started as a bitcrusher experiment many months ago evolved into something far darker and more mysterious, but the bitcrusher-esque compression remains for many of the elements of the song. I likened the song to a haunted forest at first, then leaned into witchcraft, then leaned into ghosts within a forest, so that was what influenced the title. Hope you like it!

Phantoms

Forget putting this off for several months, this one took me FIVE YEARS to complete, mostly because the tech wasn't quite there yet for me to be able to make what I wanted. As many revisions as this went through to make to an experiment attempting to encompass the wonders of the seafloor, I think I finally hit on something I can truly say I’m proud of. Can’t fault me for that! Hope you enjoy it!

Undersea

If you enjoyed this track, please consider sharing it everywhere you go! Thank you so much!

I was randomly inspired to make this at 2AM. I normally am not known for upbeat-sounding music, so this rarity as well as creative fever lead me to make...probably the most video game-sounding track I've ever created. Thanks for listening!

Clockwork

A little experiment with background music I created, with a horror twist thrown in for good measure! Please listen with headphones for highest quality. Hope you enjoy!

Subterranean

If you enjoyed this track, please consider sharing it everywhere you go! Thank you so much!

Felt motivated to make a Metroid-inspired track! Hope you enjoy!

Gravity

I had waaaaaaaaaaay too much fun making this track, you guys! I wanted to make a song that might jumpscare anyone listening into continuing to listen, and even though there were limited options to work with here, this song turned out far better than I originally planned, and I hope you all enjoy my work this time!

Headphones, please. Feedback, please. You know the drill, so please help me! Yay!

Requiem In Terror

Geez, it took too long to churn out another song. But here you go.

What started as another attempt at a cheesy horror song, such as Requiem in Terror, ended up turning into this. I've always found the moon to be a mysterious, and media where the moon has a mysterious influence, such as in Persona 3 and Bloodborne, have always kept me curious and interested in the celestial object. I guess I've always been interested in things in outer space...you can kind of tell by some of the titles of my songs. Haha!

Hope you guys enjoy it. Feedback is much appreciated, as are notes for improvement. And headphones...always headphones.

Beneath The Mysterious Moonlight

If you're stranded in a dark alley with the Grim Reaper at one exit and Jack the Ripper at the other, what would you do? Try to run or accept your fate? Either way, you're screwed. Haha!

For all things 2spoopy4me this Halloween season, I came up with this. This track combines elements of Beneath the Mysterious Moonlight and Requiem in Terror, which I don't consider to be a bad thing. While the song itself may not be that scary, it may fit in with the spookiness of the season in an ironic way. I still don't know what that means.

Feedback is much appreciated! And please, stay safe this Hallow's Eve. Don't get sick on a candy overdose, either. Haha!

The Ripper Or The Reaper

Another song! The game jam is keeping me busy!

This one more accurately reflects the theme of the game jam I'm doing. The theme is "classic horror," like 1980's cheesy zombie movies and Dracula and whatnot. I like to do Halloween music every so often, too, so this definitely assists the theme. The name "Dreaded Vestige" came about as another way to think about a ghost, or at least some kind of horrifying situation. I think it works, to say the least.

Headphones, please. Let me know how you like it. Cheers!

Dreaded Vestige (UNRELEASED)

PLEASE WEAR HEADPHONES. I can't stress this enough, god dammit!

But yeah, a bit of late-night inspiration created this piece. As the name implies, maybe someone would be escaping from something, or maybe someone would be hunting something else. The situation could swing both ways, but it tries to invoke a feeling of overall dread in its tones. Or maybe I'm imagining shit and am losing my edge. I dunno. Enjoy it either way, though!

Earthfall

Thrill Of The Hunt

This is a remake of Flux Continuum, a song I did three years ago. I enjoy listening to the song, but I recognize how awful it is. So I decided to take what I've learned in the three years since then regarding sample matching, and I remade it, bases intact but flow completely differentiated, and I even ended with some parts from Starlight Sea and Champion Supreme here, too. Hope you enjoy!

Aeon

WEAR HEADPHONES WHEN YOU LISTEN!!

The idea behind this track is that there's not much of one. Just relax to the song. Let it influence your dreams if you listen to it to sleep at night. Just chill and have fun with it. Enjoy!

Ethereal

I imagine factory work to be procedural in a sense, so I tried to translate this into a song. I'm not sure how good a job I did, considering how short it is, but considering this was done for fun anyway, does it even really matter?

Industrial

WEAR HEADPHONES WHEN YOU LISTEN.

Essentially, I liken this track to being in the presence of a giant and how that would translate out in a song. Around a minute and a half in, I would imagine this would be the feeling of watching two giants getting into a fistfight, then one finished beating the crap out of the other and went on its way. That's what it feels like, anyway!

Colossus

Please wear headphones when you listen.

This is what I imagine the theme song would be to a slasher movie villain. Took some inspirations from older tracks such as Requiem in Terror, Dreaded Vestige, and a minor cue from Technical Heart. If you think the song is too repetitive, that's kind of the idea. Cheers!

Freak

WEAR HEADPHONES WHEN YOU LISTEN!!!

A random burst of inspiration created this track, and it was completed in an hour and a half. This track was inspired by horror games such as The Evil Within, Outlast, Resident Evil, and other such horror media. Also crazy that you can put your mind to making something you're truly proud of when you're trying to focus on not being sick.

Enjoy!

Asylum

Thanks for taking the time to check me out! I do a lot of experimental music using loops and MIDI files pre-packaged with GarageBand, testing out all sorts of different styles to craft tunes that fit either a specific environment or a specific situation. If that's your thing, then awesome! If not, that's also cool.

If you like what I do and want to work with me, send me a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible. For other things I do, check out my links.
