The first track I finished for the album, this track was for a short timed event in the game, so I wanted it to have a sense of urgency. I also wanted it to be light-hearted, and as I was searching for inspiration, I found myself very influenced by the bossa nova genre. This album was made for a video game project someone was working on. They decided to drop the project, and so I'm releasing it on my own. The game was about an 8-bit shark traveling throughout the different oceans, and so each song represents a different level players would have to beat. I didn't want the music to all have that "under water level" stereotype, so I had to get creative with it. Each song is as unique as each body of water and the surrounding ecosystem.

I didn't want the music to distract from learning the mechanics, so I kept it as simple as I could while still adding some variations to keep it interesting.

I've been thinking of space a lot for the last couple of 2 Hour Album Challenges. Here's a song that supposed to convey the feeling of being blinded by the light of a nearby star reflecting off of an object looming in front of you while being overtaken by the shadow it casts on you. The 2 Hour Album Challenge (2HAC) is a community quarterly challenge to write an album together with each track being made in 2 hours time. The theme for this volume was Black and White. If you would like to learn more about, or join into the 2HAC, visit 2hac.abstractionmusic.com . If you would like to check out previous volumes, visit 2hac.bandcamp.com . All albums are pay what you want, with any money spent donated to an animal shelter in the host's local area.

I made this song to thank a Twitch subscriber and friend for his subscription after I made affiliate. I asked him what kind of song he would like, and he said 8-bit reggae. With him in the chat giving suggestions, I made this beach level video game loop.

This song was made for the 2 Hour Album Challenge (2HAC), a community quarterly challenge to write an album together with each track being made in 2 hours time.

This song was made for the 21 Days of VGM challenge. This particular day's challenge was to write a track for a mock game cutscene (down below). In the prompt there are two characters. I wanted the melody to mimic a conversation (again, explained below), so I used the flute to represent the girl, and trombone to represent the boy. It was a wintertime scene, so I couldn't resist putting sleigh bells in. Only quietly; just like the night would have been in the scene. In this hypothetical game, there is a scripted cutscene showing a flashback of our protagonist and their love interest as children. The two children are meeting up at a solitary lamp post - their usual meeting spot - just after nightfall to enjoy the beauty of the first snowfall of the year. They've been doing this for years, are both bundled up, but the conversation is much more sentimental than usual.

This song was made for 21 Days of VGM challenge back in January of 2019. Posted almost a year later to YouTube. At the time I wrote it, I didn't think it was finished, but after going through a lot of my other days songs recently I found this one and thought it was just where it needed to be. The day's challenge was to write in an odd time signature, so I took a 8/8 time signature broken into a 1-2-3-1-2-3-1-2 pattern. I think the song would fit well in a RPG store, hence the name.

A track I put together that gives a feeling of unrest and uncertainty. Dissonant notes and harmonies, eerie percussion, and long periods of silence work together, making you feel like you're lost in the woods, or maybe the basement of an old mental hospital, and you're not sure if you're the only one there.

This song was created in response to the Theatrical Trailer Challenge from Hans Zimmer's MasterClass. This following is the background of the movie from that challenge. "We can no longer keep up with our own creations. There are few things left that require a human touch. The next step has always been the stars, but it requires more than man or machine are capable of. The Metharme Project is the answer humanity has been waiting for. The ability to upload a person's mind into a machine, creating the perfect being. Or so they thought..."

This song was inspired by a video game concept a friend and I came up with. The game is sent it a world where human life has ended, and you play as a robot with the mission to bring back that life using rare materials buried deep in the earth. How do you like the music?
