A New World

Entry for Newgrounds Audio Death Match contest round 1.

newgrounds.com/audio/listen/14

I just barely had enough time to get something together before the deadline today (I only started on Sunday night).

About the song: Sort of like an intro cinematic to an RPG that starts with the main theme, goes through a few different places in the world like a castle, an airship, the underbelly of the city, shows a villain/some baddies/a conflict, and then comes back to the main theme for the finale.

Paths

Full song: youtu.be/1JFzk09MDws

Dreams like distant memories. What-ifs and missed moments; parallel lives existing from the branches of decisions we made (or didn’t make) that could have been—but aren’t—this one. We are conscious in this plane, living with the choices we’ve made. Did we choose well? Is it the right path? Or are those dreams memories from our parallel selves, showing us moments we strayed from the road we were meant to follow, or perhaps one we could have taken?

peter mcconnell's AfterLife soundtrack is the most underrated LucasArts/LFG game music there is, mostly because no one played the game.

the music is also brutally underproduced. instead of redbook audio tracks, the team decided to (criminally) crunch the music down to 8-bit, mono, 22050hz. it sounds like it's coming out of a telephone handset.

today i did some audacity work and extracted one of the tracks directly from the game files, and did a light remaster. only so much can be done to make potato audio sound good, but this is a step in the right direction. it's now stereo. enjoy.

fwiw, this is peter himself playing the electric violin on this track. i had no idea he is a violinist.

I need a new keyboard!

I moved and couldn't take my keyboard with me that I used to write music & practice every day. I need a new one at my new place, so from now until the end of August, my Bandcamp albums will be $2 as I try to cover some of the cost. Thank you!

The model I'm looking to get is basically the newer version of the one I have used for the past 12-ish years: a Yamaha YDP-145. They range €850-€1200 depending on the store & if it's on sale, so I'm hoping to get one on the lower end of that.

Other ways to help if buying music is not an option would be to share this thread or subscribe to my YouTube channel! I am getting close to monetization and I know it's not going to be a lot at first, but everything helps! Thanks so much!
