Where water meets air
These visions arise
This weekend is the 47th round of the Ludum Dare game jam! As usual, I'm warming up my soundtrack chops by trying to sketch out a bunch of separate OST-like tracks for OHC.
This time around I am trying something a little different and attempting to go with the lo-fi/chillhop vibe.
Here's the tracklist:
0:00 - together in the fog [Title Theme]
1:57 - will the ghosts come out to play? [Level Theme]
3:18 - it's too hot for shopping [Town Theme]
5:24 - are we there yet? [Credits Theme]
johnfn (hey)
johnfn (hey)
this is a diss track that you can’t defend (hey)
johnfn (hey)
johnfn (hey)
you’re completely, totally incompetent (hey)
i’m tired of your music, everything you write’s the same
with your jingly piano and the VSTs so lame
man, get some different soundfonts, kontakt’s got no thrill
just like a certain guy who’s in denial ‘bout his skill
you wanna be the beatles but you need yourself a band
you wanna be a singer but your voice is fucking bland
you wanna be a writer but you’re lacking all the passion and
you wanna be john lennon but you can only imagine it
you gotta write fast, don’t wanna miss your early bedtime
your diss to me will never work because of all the dead rhymes
can you help me solve a mystery that’s been sitting in my head? why
is it that you autotune and STILL can’t make the deadline
you call yourself a programmer, that joke runs fuckin deep
you’re so code-illiterate that you can’t even sort a heap
you’ll inevitably fall but you still try to hit the top
to compensate your lost package—guess that’s why they call it drop box
johnfn (hey)
johnfn (hey)
your idiocy i can’t comprehend (hey)
johnfn (hey)
johnfn (hey)
the best part of all your songs is the end (hey)
please
gimme just a little variety imma try to be
as fair as i can bout your notoriety but i don’t even
think i know a single thing about the society
that you think you’re in
you make me wanna end my sobriety with the
garbage that you’re making every week
and so i guess it’s up to me to let you know how much you reek
nobody wants another indie song
your vocals sound like diddy kong
i’d make a better melody by letting out a shriek
johnfn (hey)
johnfn (hey)
i’ll be calling out your faults until the end (hey)
johnfn (hey)
johnfn (hey)
and i definitely mean to condescend (hey)
these lonely days
desperate to get away
these lonely days alone
these joyless days
dismal in every way
these joyless days alone
and when you light up my days
it's clear
and when you light up the fog
so near
it's like you lift up the weight on my heart
and the feeling inside subsides
and when you light up my nights
it's clear
and when you turn up the lights
so near
it's like you lift up the weight on my heart
and the feeling inside subsides
80's styled synth music, with a lot of atmosphere to match the dark mood. Had a bit of fun with this one.
Are there other souls here, in the middle of nowhere? Will solitude be my final destination? With the future blurred by the fog, will I remain myself after this ordain?
Here's what I could come up with in the last 15 minutes
kind of peaceful really
