Hey Party Members!
Sorry for the late post, I didn't have my ducks in a row this morning and it threw me off for a minute there. :D
Today's track is a request from one of our newest Party Members, Vulpy Pax! It's intended for a village in perpetual night. something like Treno from FF9, or...

I'm just gonna come out and say it. I love this track.
I have a tendency to add a lot of elements into my music. But sometimes the most effective thing you can do is just keep it simple. That's the approach I took with this one. There are only 3 ingredient...

Today I'm fulfilling a song request for one of our Mages. The request was for an overworld theme. Long time members will know I've done a handful of these before, but after reviewing them we determined none were right for this persons game. We needed something a tad darker, less upbeat.

Hey Party Members! Happy Friday.
The Tournament is moving right along as the next two fighters are selected. It's funny, last weeks video took me a ton of time, but this weeks came together really easily. Granted, it's much simpler overall, but still, it's just funny how that works.
It's a bit tough writing a "sed...

Hey Party Members, Happy Tuesday!
Remember last week when I said I was working on a song and just couldn't get it right? So I had to change gears and release a different one? Well...I think I got it right!
So the thing about this song is, that it isn't really a 16-Bit song. *Gasp!* I thought it might be ni...

So I mentioned yesterday that the limitations of RPG Maker can be...well, frustrating. Don't get me wrong, I've managed to make a lot of great content using the engine, but overall the engine really hasn't grown too much since it's creation. In fact, from what I'...

Welp, it's here! Episode 100(ish). I tried to get a bit fancier on this than my usual videos. To be honest, it turned into a major headache. RPG Maker is just too limited on what it can do (I'm going to make a special bonus post about this fact...look for that one tomorrow).

Whelp, not gonna lie, yesterday was a super rough writing day. If you've been around a while you know this happens from time to time. The thing is, I did write something really cool, and I think it has a ton of potential still. But I just couldn't find something that I liked to fini...

Today's song is a bit of a different one! While writing I just kinda let it all go and started playing really weird rhythms that I normally wouldn't and it somehow all came together. I even ran it past a trusted composer friend of mine asking "Is this too weird?" and he assured me with a simp...

Today's episode comes paired with a really cool, kind of bluesy tune. This tune is actually my 2nd attempt for todays song, as the first one sounded a bit too...uhhhh, intimidating villain-y. That song will make its way into the vids soon enough though, there is plenty of material to go along...

Well, I'm back at it! I've been away from the studio since Thursday (actually, I didn't write anything new for about a week). It was nice to step away for a couple of days, to clear my head, but the only problem with doing that is a feel like I lost some writing mom...

Because of the time fram...

I thought I would continue the Temple theme thing this week with a Forest Temple track. Well, that's how I started anyway. Once the track really came to be I started to wonder if Forest Temple was still the main vibe. It started to make me think of like a misty/stoney kind of location. BUT U...

Today's vid was meant to provide a slight cool down after last weeks video. After all, if I just did match after match after match, the tournament would be over way too quick! I still wanted the song to maintain the high energy that has been building, so I came up with this tune.

Today is the day! The action is finally beginning after a TON of buildup for this tournament arc. Tbh, I was a tad worried if things were going to go like I had hoped. After all, I can't exactly do Dragonball Z or Yu Yu Hakusho levels of action using RPG Maker. But after getting this vid toge...

This song was written at the request of Richard, one of our newest Party Members. Thanks for the suggestion, it was a fun one to write!
This song was written to have a Castlevania vibe to it, but for any RPG devs, you could still use this for a Battle tune variation!

How have I not done a Fire Temple track yet?!?! You'd think that within the first 200 tracks I've done for Youtube/Patreon one would have slipped in there somewhere. I suppose there are a couple that could have worked, but I never wrote anything specifically for it.

Today's song is pretty hype. It's been a couple of episodes since we saw what Miranda and Lukas were doing, so I thought we could check in on them. It's an action packed sequence where they...find their way to their seats. Riveting.
I had some fun making this one though for a couple of ...

I had to come to terms with the fact that I'm just on a sci-fi music kick. It won't be a forever vibe, so I figure why not just ride it out and get some sick spacey tunes out of it?? :D
The great thing about these kind of tracks, is that many times in JRPGs, even if the game is pr...

Ok so, you remember last week when I mentioned scrapping a song and writing another? Well the main reason I did that was because the original song didn't fit the scene. For this weeks vid though, I think it worked great. Can something be considered "Lost Media" if it was only lost for a week?...

So truth be told, I wasn't sure what I wanted this song to be. I knew where the scene was going to take place, but how often do people look up "JRPG Arena Lobby Music?" I figured, colosseum sections in games are generally seen as like a side quest or a mini-game, so I can present it as that. ...

I've been expanding my sound palette a bit recently. Well, really returning to my roots. For a while I've been doing strictly SNES sounds, but I've started incorporating N64/PS1 sound elements into songs again. I did this a lot when I first started my Youtube channel/patreon.
