2015 Showcase/Reel

This is my theme for the upcoming strategy game from Shenandoah Studio, "Desert Fox: The Battle of El Alamein," which is another WWII title focusing on the titular battle in northern Africa. 

The game is slated for release during this spring, so keep your eye out for this title!

The Approach of the Fox (Theme to "Desert Fox: The Battle of El Alamein")

Another track I put together for a friend's video, this one is specifically meant to be related to/evoking the sense of a watch ticking along as passages of music flow about it.

Watchmaker

Just a basic musical theme I came up with while watching Man Vs Game play some Dark Souls 2.  Feel free to give it a listen and give some ideas if you want.

Victor's Lament (Man Vs Game Dark Souls II Character Theme)

This is the track I put together for A Shell In The Pit (https://twitter.com/AShellinthePit) and Tettix (https://twitter.com/Tettix) as part of the album "Rogue Legacy Reborn" (https://loudr.fm/release/rogue-legacy-reborn/pT8by). 

The album features music by 22 composers/songwriters, and covers a wide range of genres.  My particular submission was trying to take the simple tune that you'd hear every time you start a new generation...and gave it a bit of a revamp!  This featured guitar work by my friend/co-worker Bob Patterson, with everything else being sequenced and mixed by Me.  Mastering was done by Gordon McGladdery/A Shell in the Pit.

Please click on the 'Buy' button to check out the rest of the album - $10 for all 22 tracks, and if you wish to support the artists by contributing more, that'd be great!

リトルハートの冒険（Mr.LittleHeart's Adventure）

Based on "Monty on the Run" theme by Rob Hubbard from Monty on the Run for the Commodore 64

Shoutouts to @Metatronlives. I promised him I would make this when I was drunk, and I'm glad I stuck to it. Normally I'm pretty minimal with my arrangements but I tried seeing what would happen if I take the opposite of that approach. I had never heard of Monty on the Run or this song prior to this, but thanks Rob Hubbard (not to be confused with L Ron Hubbard of Scientology fame)

the original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93nIljXpqUY

THANK YOU FOR 593 SUBSCRIBERS!!!!!

I don't think Monty Mole from Monty on the Run is the same Monty Mole from Super Mario World. But they share the same name.

Made with C700

Mostly Harmless

I used my Yamaha PS-55 from 1983 to cover the introduction music of Ultima VI - The False Prophet. Since this keyboard has no manual or programmable percussion, I used the built-in rhumba rhythm instead.  On the second half of the song I did a little improvisation.  

Ultima VI introduction music played on Yamaha PS-55

main theme for an upcoming game that features a guy who flies around in a hot air balloon. Prolly the longest game loop I've ever made (3 minutes)
