My 21-Day Composition Challenge Entries

None of these songs are my work! These songs has been made by awesome people from VGM Academy group as their part in the 21DaysOfVGM Music Challenge, where they were supposed to write at least 2 bars of new music every day for 21 days in a row. I only made these playlists for me and for them (and anyone interested, really)to be easier to listen uninterupted.. Enjoy.

Dig A Walk [HuC6280 Cover]

Prompt: Write a melody that starts on beat 2 or 3.

Let's start off with some JRPG-styled VGM, shall we? ;)

YM2151 (OPM), Made in Deflemask

01 - An Easy Lesson

Prompt: Compose a piece in a minor key.

Just a track in B Minor. I played a crap-ton of Phoenix (the arcade game) and was inspired to write this, I even tried recreating a sound effect from the game but failed miserably. Oh well. :)

AY-3-8910, Made in VortexTracker 2.5

02 - Phoenix Boom

Prompt: Use a Compound Meter (time signature).

I decided to use a 6/8 time signature for this one. Just a simple waltz track. Another inspiration for writing this was the TI-99/4A (a home computer) and the game "Alpiner". Fun times! :)

SN76489, Made in Deflemask

03 - Alpiner Waltz

Prompt: Compose a Piratey-sounding jig.

Welcome aboard, matey!

YM2413 (OPLL)

04 - Welcome Aboard

Prompt: Create an awesome ‘Game Over’ theme that’s less than 10 seconds in length.

I wouldn't really call this "awesome", though.

05 - Hit The Bricks, Junior

Over half way ! Day 12 - Some Ozzy Dance Beats

Ozzy Beats

Sort of a Thomas Newman-esque touch to this short track that makes me think of the opening theme for some kind of TV show.

21 Day Challenge - Day 12 - Opening Theme

Chromatic Ascent

Prompt: Change keys in the middle of a composition, using any form of modulation you’d like.

Just a easy-listening track, I sampled the waveforms(?) from a Melody IC, the SVM7571. I thought it'd be perfect for this type of music.
