Made a marching tune for a fictional 16-bit RPG!

This was quite challenging as it's a very new genre for me. There's other music like this and the composers truly worked some magic in making symphonic music work with FM synths; I can only hope to learn these skills one day.
Yet another set of open-source music trackers.

My latest #music track is an electronic techno-thriller made with #milkytracker; it is more or less a remake or remix of an earlier track I made in #bambootracker. I think they're both good in their own ways

This latest chiptune piece was meant to be a straight forward electronic synthwave tune to be used as action music, but it went way heavier than expected, so I went with it and made a prog metal boss theme. Making all the different parts was heaps of fun. FM synth actually does ok with distorted guitars. Still sucks for piano 🤦♂️
Cover art was drawn while waiting in line at a theme park.

For this track I tried making a horror theme using FM synth; it was quite challenging because I couldn't just layer on big pads with dark reverb and call it a day, so I had to experiment with some tricky techniques.

Made an oscilloscope music video of one of my recent chiptune tracks! Still getting used to the workflow
after a week in the tank, another earworm is exorcised. new #pc98 / #ym2608 #chiptune made in #bambootracker! hashtag. #glitch
i called this one "starbreaker heartgazer", i think it'll make for a nice album closer whenever that time comes... glitchy and heartfelt at the same time, which is often my primary goal

My latest #chiptune / #opna / #16bit track is a fast paced, shmup-style #techno piece. Also made a #pixelart cover animation for it, a duck dropship pilot 🦆

When developing it I had an idea but it refused to work out, until I gave up and let the piece develop on its own terms, and it all started to come together.
So if your creation doesn't want to obey your vision, let it go and see where it takes you, you might be pleasantly surprised.
