Name: Running In The 80s by Rick Allen (LOE)
Duration: 3 min 47 s
Description: This is what you get when you take a bunch of midis, and slap some retro synths onto them.

This has been an idea in my head for years, and I'm glad I'm finally at the skill to fully create this as envisioned. I added STW and LG as a cherry on top.

Motifs Used: 
Tugs Theme (Vocal Version) 
Tugs Theme (Extended Sizzle Reel Version)
Boomer's Theme
Up River Theme

Red Sky At Night, SALVAGE The Port & Out To Sea (A TUGS H&D, STW & LG)

So I finished school for summer vacation, and before that could happened, I made this lil S3 style thing for Isaiah (SwigettySwooty) and he actually loved it! Yet I'm also really proud of it aswell

Big thanks to StarTom for giving me his TUGS brass for this theme, thanks a lot man!!

Hi, I'm Rick! I'm a writer and composer, and a long time fan of Thomas & Friends, retro anime, transportation, and crime stories. Here is where I post some of my music. I hope you enjoy it!

I am not skilled in sequencing music, so most of my music is based on MIDIs or sheet music I find online. All my music is free to use, so have fun with it!
