Featured tracks
Maybe Next Year
Here's a short and poignant piece for the TI-99/4A..
Static
This is a slow, melancholy piece for the Sega Genesis, inspired by insomnia and old television.
Sunlight Shining Through Trees
The Super Nintendo has a warm sound that lends itself to gentle, homey pieces like this one.
Night Market
This mysterious track finds its home on the venerable TI-99/4A home computer, which shares its sound chip with several other familiar systems.
Creature of Cold Comfort
Similar to “Yellow Tomato”, this Sega Genesis piece was originally intended for release on the album Frozen Hex as the title track.
Cheap
Here's an enthusiastic piece designed to play on the classic grey Game Boy.
Yellow Tomato
This track didn't start out composed for the Sega Genesis, but it sure feels at home there now.
Theme from Galaxy High School
This is an NES cover of the theme song from the 1986 animated series Galaxy High School.
Steamest
Steam, steamer, steamest.
Errant Cog
Composed for the title and menu screen of the GBA homebrew 2004Mbit Competition collection.
The Only Time (I’m Real (Is When I’m Not))
Composed for a competition limited to the provided piano instrument, though some sample manipulation was permitted.
TEMP5
This track is perhaps a little too active to settle into a proper title.
Winter Coat
Inspired by snow falling on a quiet night.
Battalion: Head 2 Head suite
The online Flash game Battalion: Head 2 Head, re-released as Battalion: Freedom, featured most of these tracks.
Battlemachy suite
The first and last three tracks in this suite appeared in the online Flash action game Battlemachy: Jade Bandit.
Vict’ry of the Mad Scientist
This track is made to be played on a real NES, though it uses the obscure VRC6 expansion chip’s additional sound channels.
Perceiver
This is the first part of an unfinished tryptich, with just a touch of that old analog synth sound.
Connector
This is the second part, with somewhat more of that old analog synth sound.
She’s Got a Brand New NES
Like the MegaRoo soundtrack, this isn’t authentic NES sound though it fits the same hardware limits.
Space Gems ~ Hard
Composed for the game Space Gems which appeared in the GBA homebrew 2004Mbit Competition collection.
Space Gems ~ Normal
Also composed for the game Space Gems. These were dynamic tracks, arranged here into demonstrative mixes.
Renewal
I was commissioned to compose this piece as a wedding gift.
Jetlag
Ever been short on sleep in a different time zone?
Loop the Loop ~ Loop Garden
Made for Loop the Loop, another GBA game appearing in MaxPlay Classic Games Volume 1.
Loop the Loop ~ Skyline
Also made for Loop the Loop. The game’s third track is a sample-based cover of A.M. A.L. Funk.
Milo’s Quest: Dragon Pearls ~ Fearless
This was composed for the GBA title Milo’s Quest: Dragon Pearls which sadly never saw commercial release.
Milo’s Quest: Dragon Pearls ~ Circumspection
Also made for the GBA title Milo’s Quest: Dragon Pearls. The game centered around peg solitaire in an RPG-like adventure.
Milo’s Quest: Dragon Pearls ~ World Inverted
Also composed for Milo’s Quest: Dragon Pearls.
Milo’s Quest: Dragon Pearls ~ A Voiceless Cage
Yet more Milo’s Quest: Dragon Pearls!
Chopper II ~ Water
Made for the GBA game Chopper II which was released as part of the obscure MaxPlay Classic Games Volume 1 game collection.
Chopper II ~ Fire
Also made for Chopper II.
MegaRoo
This Mega Man inspired collection of tracks imitates NES sound, though it’s not completly authentic.
Wonkie Guy ~ Ice
Composed for the unreleased GBA homebrew game Wonkie Guy.
Two-Bit
Two sound channels, one chip sample.
Spell Machine (radio cut)
The full original track appears on the album Beyond It All. This cut pulls out the sped-up section.
Depth
This track uses low sine waves that many inexpensive speakers can’t manage. If the first 16 seconds are silent, try headphones.
Feline Measures
This and “Very Alone” use the same batch of small chiptune samples.
Very Alone
Long sleepless nights during long winters...
Song of Themes
This is a Frozen Hex remake of a medley that first appeared on the album Beyond It All.
Next Level
Inspired by a sense of accomplishment.
New Realms
Either it's a very short rock opera, or this is a long overture.
Dream Of One
One channel, one chiptune sample, less than one minute. Also, here’s an NES cover by Brad Smith!
Beyond It All
What all it's beyond has never been revealed. It's a heck of a ride in the game Audiosurf.
A.M. A.L. Funk
Here’s that good old AdLib sound.
Jessie’s Theme
This is a sort of musical portrait of a personality.
SB Remix
Oddly, the original track of which this is a remix was never released.
Gold Moon
Composed mostly in one day for a tracking competition.
