8/8 is not 4/4

This is a remix of Trombe's theme for SRW. The instruments queue in over several loops throughout the whole song, generally in the order they were invented. 
I've been trying to figure out how to make those guitar sounds in his theme forever, and it's been driving me nuts. I stumbled upon a midi of his song this weekend during the LD36 game jam and just had to remix it.

1. Pulse Wave 1 - Melody (SAW)
2. Pulse Wave 2 - Melody (SAW)
3. Triangle Wave - Bassline (on/off, no volume variation)
4. Noise - Percussion (can be tuned)
5. Samples - 1 bit instrument sample

Sunrise at the Wrong Address

This is my mobile game song for Udemy's Game Music Composition course. I was going for a chill beat theme for like a shop or wandering around a town or something like that. I added a sax as like an answer to the piano melody and it ended up getting out of control. First time composing in 3/4, I should have made the notes shorter as I ended up bumping the bpm up to like 230 to get the speed I wanted.

Notes:
Chillhop stream music listened to:
