Baby bought a banjo 🪕
Thanks to EJ Van Greet for inspiring me to get one, and spying this 70’s MIJ Aria on marketplace. Had it about a week and it’s hella fun to play. Shout out to @eligilbertbanjo for his great YouTube playlist, teaching me these tunes.

Really enjoyed 'Beneath the Surface' from the firs

Really enjoyed 'Beneath the Surface' from the first hour of gameplay of metroidvania Nine Sols. It is heard as you are first presented with the 'Taopunk' (Taosim meets cyberpunk) aesthetic of the game, and really helps to reinforce it. Love the dense rhythmic layers and the trance vocals... awesome work by FFXX.

Proud to have placed 2nd amongst the many talented people in the Minigame Jam! Listening to all the submissions I was impressed with the quality and creative responses to the theme. Feeling inspired to take it to a higher level next time. You can check out the submissions here:

Just finished a piece titled A Steady March for 'OST Minigame Jam', hosted on itch.io.
We had a week to compose a piece based on the theme 'Hero's Journey', which I chose to reflect with a loose mirror form. There was the optional challenge of using the whole tone scale for a section of the piece, which is why the middle 8 is on the stranger side of things, but I thought it suited a hero's conflict quite well.

I was aiming for an odd mix of the uplifting electronica of Kiasmos, the cute quirk of The Electones, and the weird whole tone part feels reminiscent of the Earthbound soundtrack... I'll whack up a video of it here after the long weekend, but you can find it over on YouTube or my itch.io page now if you're keen!

Thanks to Cryptid for hosting, and I'm keen for next years one!

Artist Vignette #4
Another gentle piece, matching Signal Appearance's title of 'Chill Night'. The artwork is for their game upcoming game The M/S Cornelia II Incident.

This simple melody came out quite quickly on the guitar, and I captured a raw performance of it (hence the close, lofi sound). Why do triple time signatures suit the ocean so well?

Artist Vignette #3
For this piece I aimed to create a sense of slowed time, a still, shared moment. @pikcelalien did such a great job capturing that gentle evening sunshine, and I hope I did it justice! Be sure to check out Pikcel's work on their socials, or their itch.io page.

Trying to capture a mood in such a short time frame was challenging, but having lots of bleeps and bloops and glitchy percussion seemed to do the trick.

Artist Vignette #1
The first in a series of short musical responses to various artwork found across the interwebs. This short animation of the affectionately named ’Pink Boi’ was made by @mikeybyrneart who I met when working on the game Afterlight. I really enjoyed making the squelch noise with my *moist* mouth.

Righto, my next set of game loops are out! I had a bunch of fun putting these together, and it was nice getting the Posca's out for the artwork. These are all up on itch.io, Unity Asset Store, and Game Dev Market.
I also made a preview video for them; if you want to see how many ways you can invert these colours in Davinci, head over to my YouTube 🦜

A transcription of something a little more recent... (2022). Jonathan Geer did an amazing job creating the whimsical atmosphere for Core Keeper; here's me trying to unravel the intertwining woodwinds for the piece 'Unlit Caves'
