More space ambiance experimentation. Still lacking in the stylistic effects and whatnot. And the title could refer to cosmic grandeur or just having snacks, I guess.

It's uh...got some Asian instruments in it.

Been wanting to try my hand at space ambiance music. So... I did. Mellow choirs, pads, reverb, delay, and a string ensemble heavily phaserd. Best viewed with a panning panorama of space objects.

Just something mellow for hiding from the cold. Its got triplets in it, too.

A bit of orchestral stuff, beginning at the fringes of the great empire and traveling along storied highways to the very heart of the sunless domain before quietly departing into subterranean depths.

Kinda turned into a jig-inspired thing at points. Guess folks will dance for laundry if they want to. Wasted maybe 15 minutes trying to find the sfx for this one.

At first, unresponsive. Then erratic, then completely haywire before ceasing all together.

Synths, drumkit, guitar, distorted stuff, and some strings. Guess it works.

Some mess of choirs, organs, and such in a vaguely hymnal/worshipful fashion. Huh.

For the paths made quiet by our friend COVID.

Trying some more rustic instrumentation and even that panning stuff I keep hearing about. Made me think of a buncha blokes gathered around the fire, kinda jamming.

Accidently created something in 5/4 time. Cool. Went for a mix of deep and high sounds to represent the blackness enrobed by light.

[Don't you vote for the bonus, now.] Made with Kirby Superstar and Kirby 64 soundfonts, horribly misused. Aw well, I had some fun with it.

Just Soup being soup. A pleasant little ditty for returning.

A multi-pronged title. For one thing, the arrangement and mechanics feel a bit sloppy. More relevant, the song went rather different than I expected. Set out to make an apprehensive, spacious piece to capture being lost in underground ruins full of monsters. The piece kept devolving, perhaps reminiscent of the darker elements of Undertale. Oh well, I had some fun with it.

This odd thing is what happens when I try to use mainly synth stuff.

Went with something a bit more campfire oriented, something to go with folks swapping stories while the fire dies down into a warm smolder. Much shorter a piece than I like, but sometimes it just tells you when it's done.

Wanted to try something more ominous and dire. Maybe it's because I've been playing Metroid Prime. The dynamics aren't where I want em, but hey.

For the cunning predators who hunt and worship by night. Or something poetic like that. Alt title: Yup, another song with violins.

Never thought I'd compose for dinosaurs. Hauled out some more exotic samples for this. Think I might have made the rhythm wonky in a few spots. Made in vision of the long-dead reptiles lumbering about the prehistoric world in it's fantasy-world-class scenery.

First song I've ever used multiple apostrophes in the title of! When I first heard this delightful song, my mind wandered to a sea shanty of sorts so I busted out the hurdy-gurdy samples, laid out some droning bass, and this happened. It's a bit slower than the source, but I tried to keep the melody and such faithful so I could focus on better mixing. Maybe it worked. At any rate, hopefully some of it sounds good.

Don't vote for the bonus. Started out wanting to make a sea-shanty of sorts, but got distracted, partway through. A little piece about leaving familiar things behind, nice as they are, to find new horizons, although you'll always miss what couldn't come with.

More inspired by resource #1. A little journey into the majestic cosmos to find things strange yet familiar before returning with just a little bit of what was found. Kinda wish I had time to flesh out the 2nd half more :P

A little piece for a fine sunrise on frozen landscapes.

Don't vote for the bonus. The sad thing is, this is me trying to stay conservative in my arrangement XD

Light and sound ringing off of icy walls with much tuned percussion. And I almost made it without violins.

Goofing around with my newish euro brass samples and those violins I just can't divorce myself from. Got a minute in before I realized the tempo was drastically slower than the originalsc I had some fun. Hope you do listening to it.

Something of a sister song to my piece from last week's contest, stole a number of melodies from it. Just a plucky little ditty for some cold flowers.

First time composing with a time limit. The thing is sloppy as spaghetti, but I kinda like the last couple minutes of it. Hope it doesn't hurt your ears too much.

Metroid Prime 3: Bryyo Cliffs. In a world brought low by petty strife, forever scarred, only the stones remember the lost glory of a once great people. Or something like that.

Kind of chill bumpsy plains, like a smooth stroll downhill.

Super Metroid Title Theme. A tribute to the lone hunter who stands between the galaxy and ruin.

A piece for the anxious dread of a dawning revelation.
