A collection of all pieces, both arrangements and originals, that were made for the 8-Bit Music Theory Discord's Weekly Challenges. The Weeklies are a set of challenges to either arrange or compose a piece to a prompt within a week, for the chance to get the prestegious prize of the "A Winner is You!" Rank, as well as access to the coveted #pinata channel but shh! I didn't tell you that ;). Also, I threw in some covers of weekly tracks and alt versions, as I feel it's appropriate, though that may change in the future.

Dire Dire Docks (Super Mario 64): Dance Remix

Another Weekly Challenge entry, this one just being arranging a song that is nostalgic to us, so I chose Rocket Jump Waltz.  This is mostly designed to be good for some live performances, so stay tuned to see if that's a thing.

Late lunch

For Orni during Summer Santa 25.

Going through Orni's extensive catalouge two environmental tracks "The Open Sea" and "Fields" really stuck out to me in how different and yet similar they are. I decided to make a metal medley out of them - the changes between 3/4 and 5/4 work really well in that genre. I had a ton of fun reducing the very complex layers into 4 guitars and 1 bass (and a surprise towards the end).

Until Our Paths Cross Once More

My latest entry in the 8-bit weeklies, and my favorite to date! This one was motivated by two things. 1 - I want orchestral black MIDI. a full orchestra playing black midi, with no shortcuts or time for such trifles as "good playability" or "good grammar". 2 - to show the versatility of the orchestra as a whole rather than winds + brass + strings + percussion, and after some arduous yet fun work, this should show all non-believers just how well the two work together.
