a chill chiptune jazz fusion cover of thundercat's insane 2021 diet coke ad song. 

i feel weirdly dirty covering a large corporation's advertising campaign - but hey, cool music is cool music.

I Know Digi Fu

Small jazz/digital fusion jam for Raspberry Pi 400. Second place in Revision 2022's executable music competition! Powered by a custom wavetable synthesizer with delay/reverb/EQ, sequencing in music macro language. 29KB total (still room to squash it down though, maybe next year).

If you'd like to try out the code yourself (or write your own music using the engine) check out the repo here: https://github.com/protodomemusic/wavexe

Onion Rings [29KB Raspberry Pi Chiptune]

UPDATE: thanks to Pink^Abyss' advice it's now 18KB. <3

Another jazz/digital fusion jam for Raspberry Pi 400. Second place in Revision 2023's Executable Music competition!! Powered by a custom wavetable synthesizer, sequencing in music macro language. 22KB total - better than last year, but there's always room to make it smaller. How are 4Klang executables so small??

Sine Time [18KB Raspberry Pi Chiptune]

Little arrangement of the 'inside house' theme I wrote for Crunchyroll's GBC game, Hime's Quest. Prob my favorite from the OST, so I kinda wanted to hear it in hi-fi.

Hime's Quest: 'A Little Respite' Hi-Fi

Here's a fun funk ep I knocked up with a bunch of late 80s and early 90s gear. For those interested: 

Yamaha DX21, Yamaha VSS-200, Yamaha PSS-680, Casio VL-Tone, Nintendo Game Boy, Microsoft Wavetable Synthesizer and Akai EWI 4000s. 

Mixed on a Amstrad Studio 100 with a Yamaha FX770 for effects. 

The rest is FL Studio. 

Interstellar Good Times.

I Want You In My Bedroom.

Got a small album of vanilla Nintendo Entertainment System exercises for you. Just a couple of jazz/funk/pop bites that might entertain for fifteen minutes or so. 

The whole lot was written natively on a single NES using MIDINES (by Wayfar) and recorded straight from the console (with a bit of mastering). No emulation! 

Blueberry Ballad

Banana Bossa

A little chip/funk/electro take on Jobim's 'Chega De Saudade'.

Chega De Saudade

Eh, I was having fun with this, so here's another Jobim arrangement.

Girl From Ipanema

Chippy disco/funk track made for the neat iOS game Star Cat Adventure.

You are required to check it out. Mandatory. I don't make the rules, I just enforce them.

This is a song about the greatest of all hats - the platonic hat if you will.

♪ ♫ It's got some enormous eyes, 
It's soft so doesn't fossilize, 
I've got a feelin', 
I want an octopus. 

It eats crabs but doesn't ever drink, 
So where does it get all that ink? 
I've got a feelin', 
I want an octopus. 

It fits through gaps, 
Just half an inch small... 
It's got eight legs, 
Now I want six more! ♫ ♪

I Want An Octopus

4000AD is a tiny, 4-track, 1-bit, progressive jazz album. Each track is synthesised using a C script (which converts a custom MML dialect to WAV by running microcontroller code and recording the output) and is a fun exercise in both low-memory programming and 1-bit music.

The sound routine is 1-bit, with three pulse channels and a simple sampler for drums, designed for AVR microcontrollers. The sequencing is based around MML.

4000AD

A bonus, hi-fi arrangement of the 1-bit track, 4000AD.

Okay, this might sound leagues more sophisticated than the 1-bit rendition but, where 4000AD was 6.5KB, this is 0.99MB for the project file, plus ≈1630MB of RAM (for synthesisers).

4000AD: Hi-Fi Arrangement

Created using Inphonik's RYM2612, a YM2612 VST emulator (aka the Mega Drive/Genesis sound chip). Everything is generated by the YM2612, apart from the snare/kick/crash, which borrows from assorted Genesis games.

You can get 50% off RYM2612 by using the promo code TOEJAMMIN after following this link: https://transactions.sendowl.com/stores/11732/179004

Toejammin' - FM Genesis Funk w/ Inphonik's RYM2612

Got a couple of requests to upload a sans vocals mix of Oh I Feel Just Fine.

It's an earlier edit of the album version, so the mixing's slightly worse, but it's fine.

Oh I Feel Just Fine... (Because I'm Making Macaroni) [no vocals]

After a *six year* hiatus, I'm back at my usual nonsense. Here's a collection of dumb, jazz/funk, chiptune-esque tracks created using a variety of different samples and sound chips (I've labelled where appropriate).

I've taken a less purist approach this time around (compared to 4000AD) and just had some fun.

Greets to Will 'Willrock' Harby, Marianne Thompson, Bradley Jordan and Jake Few for being sounding boards. Also props to Rosa García for the gorgeous artwork.
