Music


Chipped Tunes

Bunch o' chiptune-y sounding Pico-8 songs made on the Pico-8 (what else?) anywhere from now to around early 2020. Most are pretty short, some of them are even kinda good. (I said kinda, don't get your hopes up.)

Waiting For the Apocalypse

My first Pico-8 song. Chill attempt at a basic theme song.


Tension Release

First attempt at making a more active theme. It makes a semi-decent ringtone, I suppose.


That Guy

You know, that one guy? Sounds a little like a theme for a bad game antagonist.


Watered Down

My first "song" song (in that it starts with a buildup and is more than just one tune) and the first track I was actually proud of a little. Kind of earwormy.


Two

I was bored so I made a song. Story of my life, basically. Yet another "song" song. I quite like it compared to Tension Release or the un-sang Puzzletest (don't worry, you ain't missing much) but I've made songs that I was more proud of.


Crisp

I don't remember making this one, funnily enough. It's another short tune. I may have just been sleep deprived, but who knows


Our Battle Begun

A nice marching "song" tune in that it's got a buildup and actual length but really just one tune. I made this in like 45 minutes, though.


Embark

Nice title screen sounding song with surprising depth considering it took only like an hour. Beginning to see a theme here. Maybe I shouldn't commit attention deficit fuckery. Though, in my defense, I am pumped beyond full of caffeine right now. The file plays the song twice to artificially inflate the length, because screw you


Buildup Battle

Another song I made in a handfull o' hours spread out over 2 or 3 days. Used the standard principles of tri bass and pulse lead, along with some neat Pico-8 effects


Crossfire

Yippee, a sick song I made in about an hour again (maybe I'm just based like that) a day after ditching the idea cos I couldn't map the baseline in 4:4. I'm quite fond of this track actually


Untitled-2 Remade

It's name_v2, again. Was bored and had some ideas bouncing around and inspiration, so I dug up the old sound file from way back in the very beginning of 2022 and began to reconstruct it in Pico-8.


Rockin It Anyway

We do be rockin it anyway doe. Made in almost precisely one hour. Pretty nice for its composition time. Might be my new favorite even tbh


And a Hard Place

Nice little song, bassline makes me think of Receiver 2 ost which is fine since this music is meant to have a more controlled, less all at once feeling. Still has some nice climax action tho


Traudge.wav

Song made in rougly 45 mins for Traumatized Edgeworth's 1 hr music competition. Scored 5th place. Listen, the competition was rough.


Tension Release 2: Electric Boogaloo

Tension release but a lot better. It's kinda FUCKING LOUD but it's not bad I guess? Might use it somewhere, not sure yet.


Tetris :D

I covered the Tetris theme, if you've heard Tetris Ultimate's track 1 then you can probably guess that I really liked it.

Fast version too.



Covers

Covers of songs I like, most if not all made in Pico-8. These are generally of better quality than my songs because I kinda suck at musicing. Arranged in no particular order.

Castle Crashers - Volleyball Match

I love this song. And this game. Seriously. I hope my cover does it justice but in some parts it just kinda doesn't lol


Hotline Miami - Inner Animal

Good song, decent cover. Great game of course.


Super Famicom Wars - Help!

The original song is better than this I swear, idk why the cover feels so off-beat.


Doom (1993) - The Demons from Adrian's Pen

Also known as the song from E2M2, Containment Area. Very good song, was kind of hard getting some parts right for the cover.



Misc

Untitled-2

First song I ever made. Made in LMMS rather than Pico-8. The "-2" is because this is a tweaked version of the first rendition, Untitled-1 and Untitled-2 weren't separate songs. I really like this just for it being my first. Was also called "name_v2."
