I was meant to be finishing Jolly Good Show but I thought I'd play with another free VST (PG8X) and bash out some chords. Ending up embellishing that instead. Also first semi-serious attempt at writing lyrics, so of course it's about what someone does in the morning!

As always, sounds better on Newgrounds: https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1014713

Foggy Morning

Finished that old track, hopefully you'll like what I've done with it!

Get it for a quid on Bandcamp! https://shufflehound.bandcamp.com/track/jolly-good-show

Jolly Good Show!

Another relaxing ditty with "baa baa" lyrics. Fumbled about a guitar just long enough to get those chords out.

A problem with the album now is finding a order for the tracks to go in. The production style and genre wanders about so much that there isn't a solid flow to the listening experience. This track and Kaleidoscopic Bubbly make good "bookends" though.

Happy bumpy bass tune!

Platypus Plaza

Started out as a 1 minute thing in 2014, and decided to flesh it out for Istotne Nagr.'s Kooky Nuts Pop Vol. 5!

Get it here (it's free)!

Guitar/vocals sampled from BarryDennen12's "Euro Truck 2 - NO GPS CHALLENGE" video.

(This was my own master before the official Kooky Nuts one, which may be a bit better than this one actually.)

Numbat Jounce

Mostly tried to keep the changes minimal during the original 2014 half; then it just goes off the rails. 

I can't really trust myself to talk release dates anymore, but I've got about 3 albums of different styles anywhere from half to two thirds complete, with the "stupid EDM" album closest to being finished. The others are the "Jolly Good Show" album of exuberant happy-holiday muzak, and the "Kaleidoscopic Bubbly" album of spacey psychedelic tunes of a broader mix. I've also been collaborating with my sister on some cozy electronic vocal music, although that is going to be a while still. So yes, lots of flitting about various projects (including cartoons), guaranteeing they all take as long as possible!

Indentical Twins v2

Saxophiano House

Happy Hour Stomp

WIP for some electro-ish, classical-ish thing.

Galumphous

Spanish like chord sequence, played in a Bossa Nova way but with breaks.
LOOPING VERSION: www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/580970

Bossa Beat (free download)

A nearly done work in progress.

And the total album's roughly 75% done which still could mean it could take anywhere from a couple months to a year to finish. That does mean there is indeed a finish line though! I owe myself doing some minimalist simple tunes after these lol.

Vocals by Isabella Rothman.

Kangaroo Resort

A little ditty I played on the piano, recorded with a Marantz cassette machine to give it that compressed, retro sound.

Plinky Plonk (free download)

Revisit of an older ditty (still on here).
New vocals by Isabella Rothman and vocoder sample by Jake Rothman.

Keep It Up (2022)

git your skates on!

-

The last several tracks somehow got so long, they've become unmanageable (but I'll get back at them eventually), so here's something short I can fit all my obsessive tweaks in without it taking months.

Vibrafun

Music from Foxy Gets Hooked.

Original description:
Had a go at extending that tune in the FNAF parody trailer. It ended becoming something completely different.

Foxy And Bonnie Go For A Stroll (Daft Cartoon 2)

This is what you're meant to use the 303 for, right?

Lemonade Stand

More happy organ pops.

Formerly called "Daft Beats" but updated to match the title used in the album Jungle Bumble.

Descending Red and Orange

"Hello, boys and girls! It's drummy time!"

Extended version. And by that I mean it wonders off and essentially becomes a completely different genre by the end.

Drummy Time

Samples from FNAF 1, 2, and 3, which Scott Cawthon owns.

FNAF 1, 2 & 3 Remix

Rain, rain, go away. Come again another day.

EDIT 2023: Was called 'Rainfall Synth' but renamed to match its title in the album Jungle Bumble.

Pitter-Patter, It Doesn't Matter

I'd like to extend this someday, although I have no idea how to develop it.

Wonky Flute

Please hold what?

Casiotone MT-400V, Yamaha PSS-480

(Sadly I think I lost the original multitrack recordings for this one. But I'll most definitely recreate the sounds one way or another somepoint. I have a few of the original samples somewhere.)

GAUDY

Inspired by the likes of Thomas the Tank Engine and Noah & Nelly with Moog bass done with a Dreadbox Erebus.

Jaunty Tune

Improvised poppy synth-organ jazz stuff.
Stuff used: Early Learning Centre tambourine, snare with brushes, Yamaha Electone B-35, Zoom Sampletrak ST-224, Boss RPS-10, Roland SH-101, and a pixiephone.

It's Nice To Have Visitors

This Yamaha VSS-200 toy sampler is so much fun.
Drums are from a “Music Edge Song Maker Junior” toy keyboard.

Scampish Scampi

This song's nearly done! (even if the mix is still a little sloppy and hard to listen to).
I've been busy working on my new home's acoustics and will be building a silent PC before I get too scrutinous with my mixes though.

I've been posting my music and animation's progress on my Patreon if you fancy a visit! https://www.patreon.com/HarveyRothman

Scampish Scampi v2.0

Originally made 3rd February 2018 
Reuploaded 'cause the original was so quiet. I'd do a proper remix if it wasn't for a lot of the original stems being lost, but oh well!
The bass was done with a x0xb0x and Erebus, hoping to cover Daphne Oram's Rotolock, but it ended up becoming something else entirely. Also starring the Casio MT-400V and Zoom Studio 1204 vocoder!

Jungle Bumble

Tune from 2015.

Also I'm thinking of moving 100% to Bandcamp. Soundcloud's audio quality is just that bad.

Edit: I found the original stems (it's tricky 'cause this was back when I never organised anything so I assumed I lost all the recordings), but chances are I'll be extending this for the next album now!

Minipop

May have another album out by summer! This time one of actually finished songs; not like Jungle Bumble where losing half the audio files kind of forced my hand to release those tracks. But yes, a jolly synthetic romp though space soaking in those electromagnetic waves!

Soundcloud's audio compression gets worse every day. Those poor drums! It sounds better on Newgrounds: https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1005116

Kaleidoscopic Bubbly

Daft synth tunes of varying jazzy-to-bangin' ratio.
