A sampling of some tracks on the instrumental album I'm working on. I'm one quarter done and thought I would share a bit.

I submit proof that I learned to do this, mostly as reference in case I forget later.

With guitar ensemble done for this semester, I had a bit of time to make something for @musicweeklies.bsky.social this week. The theme was 'spring'.

Making an arrangement of “If you listen carefully” from #suikoden 2., hopefully in time for the remasters to release. Here is a snippet of the guitar accompaniment; all the suspended chords are a joy to arrange!

Made some quick peaceful music for the @musicweeklies.bsky.social "Fresh" prompt this week. I actually have a second part that I didn't get time to record on this busy week.

I think this is an idea I'll return to and fill out in the future.

I've been listening to a lot of Biber's Passacaglia recently, and every time I have this intrusive thought...

Bieber's Passacaglia.

I guess it would be the entire piece in his style. I've decided at least four bars of this monstrosity have to exist.

Me, playing my guitar next to a 72bpm metronome: I’ve got this piece sounding great!

I made a (portion of a) tune for this week's @musicweeklies.bsky.social challenge: Sea Creatures. My angle here was a battle theme with a sea monster.

Suikoden III's Sindar Ruins theme...rewritten as a buleria flamenco rhythm. One of the weirder ideas I had and followed through on in Kanakan Stories Vol. 1. This was very tough to do, to the point where it's probably tough to recognize as that theme.

My favorite of the 'Old Book' style items I made for Kanakan Stories Vol 2 was this: authored by a Highland apologist, written in the style of a keyboard warrior, and published at the worst possible time. There's more, but these are the saltiest snippets.

A somewhat silly rearrangement of the Dwarven Village theme I made for Kanakan Stories Vol 2.

Working on a character theme. I've been spending way too much time on it as I'm having trouble with development later on. At least the first part is basically there! Here's a snippet of that part. #composer

I wrote for orchestra for the first time! The prompt was to write a 90 second piece inspired by this image. I can't attach the whole thing because of Bluesky's limit.

Worked on some run cycles for the main characters. I didn't end up using Suikoden as a model like I originally wanted; too many frames for me to deal with. It's a simple three frame animation (per direction). Can't attach video here but here's the Aseprite preview! #screenshotsaturday #indiedev
