There's a fantastical quality to this track that I love. It'd fit in well in a modern JRPG.

My first console was a Sega Genesis. I loved Sonic as a kid and I have fond memories playing through the early titles in the series. I especially loved the music; I would actually listen on headphones plugged into the Genesis. Flash forward to 2012: I was in my last semester of music school, and I joined a jazz ensemble called the Zebras. The ensemble picked a new theme each semester, and that spring, the theme was video game music arranged in a jazz style. (This was years before jazz covers of VGM got big on YouTube). I had a blast being in that band, and I contributed two arrangements to their repertoire. One of them was an earlier version of this track: Hydrocity Zone Act II, arranged for a smaller ensemble. In this track, I’ve expanded the arrangement to fit a full band. 

Throughout the arrangement you're going to hear the incredible rhythm section of Greg, Brian, Austin and Shawn. The first three are old UNT classmates of mine who work out in LA - whereas Shawn was in the Navy Commodores with me and is a top tier jazz guitarist who can play anything. I'd be remiss to forget the incredible ensemble playing spearheaded by Nashville lead trumpet ace, Steve Patrick. I’d also like to give a special nod to the Jerry Hey style "a capella" horn section soli in the middle. The soloists Howi Dietz and Emmanuel Echem bring some serious fire and soul to the piece. You don't wanna miss it!

Hey! First upload on SC! Yay!
Here's an old song I finished today. Hope the master is at least alright. Never good with that. Don't mind the bad meaning of the title btw, I never know how to name my modules...
Oh yeah, this isn't just 5/4, I made this based on a 5/4 structure. But of course there are polyrhythms hehe.
Samples come from various sources, wether MIDI or arcade game soundfonts, to default OpenMPT samples (I believe) or YTPMV samps (yes, I still do these).

City of Smoke

Tomoa, a low rank adventurer, journeys to a far off village left in ruin. A beast of unknowable stength has destroyed the village, and he's left to look for survivors... Little does he know that the only survivor, a lone baby boy, would be the cause of all the destruction... 
----------------
Tomoa and the Beast is a 2D Action/Puzzle Platformer, and this album is a fake OST made for the July 2022 OST Composing Jam, composed of 5 songs describing the events Tomoa encounters.
[ Track Descriptions ]
1) A Village In Ruin --- The opening cutscene, where Tomoa finds himself in the ruined village looking for survivors. He finds only a baby boy with glowing yellow eyes...
2) Escape Through The Forest --- Tomoa and the baby trek through the forest back to civilization.
3) Dusk Parade --- Nighttime begins to fall, and Tomoa looks for resources to set up camp, leaving the baby alone...
4) Unforgiving Therianthropy --- Tomoa returns to the campsite... only to find that the baby is transforming into a beast! Fight the root of the danger, Tomoa!
5) Return --- After a bloody battle, a shaken Tomoa returns back to the city... Alive, but empty handed... and with terrible news.
6) Tomoa and the Beast OST Medley --- A back-to-back version where all the songs play in order!

Marimba Musings and Other Variations is a high-concept, genre-blending sonic feast. Each track is a theatrical ode to a culture, dish, or myth, centered around the marimba — a rhythmic narrator guiding listeners through whimsical, dramatic, and high-energy soundscapes. From the stately romance of Biscuit Marimba to the operatic grandeur of Wagner Marimba, the volcanic bounce of Tsunami Marimba, and the slapstick funk of Croissant Marimba, every piece fuses orchestral craft with absurdist charm and global flavor. Packed with Dolby-level production, Quincy Jones–style arrangements, and bursts of chantable magic, this collection is a genre unto itself.

Track 11 Marimba Meditation North

A heartfelt orchestral journey that begins with gentle piano and strings, building toward an emotional peak carried by harp and soaring melodies. A melody for new beginnings and unwavering optimism.

As Charli XCX published the stems from her last album “how i’m feeling now” for the making of a new remix playlist on SoundCloud, I had some fun trying to transform her "Party 4 U" in my own style. Hope you'll enjoy it!
