CosmicTailz - Stars (C418-inspired song) CosmicTailz 2025-09-23 | Minecraft has been a big part of my childhood, and continues to be a notable part of my life to this day. The first time I'd played it was during a visit at my cousin's place back in 2013, though it was only for a few brief minutes, which was still enough time for me to create a "stairway to the sun"... that only reached a couple blocks off of the ground.For a good few years, I was stuck with pocket edition, which didn't have in-game music at the time. It wouldn't be until my 9th birthday that I'd get a taste of C418's works via Minecraft Wii U Edition, which had even more than I'd previously known I was missing out on. Years later, the game would contribute to me forming my first long-distance friendship with a person who went by the NNID of "xKevinx2010", who was one of the few people I'd sent friend requests to after playing a session of Mario Kart 8 online. I still remember the times I'd hide under a bunch of blankets to play with them late at night since they were (presumably) in a far-off time zone.And now, around 6(?) years after my first taste of the internet, I run a niche YouTube channel where I upload music and other random stuff that I make. I've got less than a week before I become an "adult", so as a tribute/sendoff to my childhood, I decided to make my own little C418-style music disc, since they were one of my favourite parts of the game. Even today, I still listen to them outside of the game pretty often.
dramatic recreation of the siderian period CosmicTailz 2025-09-22 | this was way funnier in my head honestly
CosmicTailz - In Your Head CosmicTailz 2025-09-10 | Well, can you?Have you ever been asked if you can picture an apple in your head and spin it around? I sure have, and it was accompanied by tracker music... maybe a little more Protracker-ish than this, though.Had to reupload with a wider thumbnail due to the original being banished to Shorts purgatory, screw that.
creepers are LOUD (Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition) CosmicTailz 2025-09-06 | first video using my vivicam! I think it's pretty neat
PING-PING (Pinball Wizards) - Brickracerz CosmicTailz 2025-08-04 | A giant pinball table that looms over Casino City, big enough that it can be seen from a satellite image. It unfortunately isn't functional, as it'd require a ton of power just to rotate the flippers due to their size, and thus it stands as a giant monument instead.
River Rhythm (Riverside Jungle) - Brickracerz CosmicTailz 2025-08-04 | A small racetrack that was etched into the soil of a jungle many years ago, and passes onto the foot of a nearby mountain via bridges. The man who created it was a great adventurer who sported a blue winter cap and an orange coat year-round, and he was kind enough to allow the Brickracerz Racing Committee to host on it.
Brickracerz Update 0.9.1 Trailer CosmicTailz 2025-08-03 | PLAY NOW: roblox.com/games/106001424256840/Brickracerz-BETADISCORD: discord.gg/jHvUC5gh9V0.9.0 existed for about an hour before I ended up having to roll out a hotfix, so this is a trailer for 0.9.1 instead! (...and it uses footage from 0.9.0)Special thanks to Fizz1ed, UnSunny, MattLikesMath, and Lemoncake for helping me with filming footage for this trailer :3
Brickracerz Update 0.9.0 Teaser CosmicTailz 2025-08-01 | Uh huh, we got a Roblox Karts track in the game now (thank you Radiogamer for letting me do this)Server link:discord.gg/jHvUC5gh9V
BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 - Dash at Dawn (Hybrid Soundfont Remix) CosmicTailz 2025-07-19 | This right here is the pinnacle of my journey thus far, a remix made out of a combination of 3 different instrument sets of a[n officially] nameless song.I actually started working on this remix almost a year ago, but I never uploaded it simply because I didn't know what to do for the thumbnail (which happens pretty often). Heck, if it weren't for the poorly-timed power outage as I was uploading it today, it probably could've came out a few hours earlier.
Geometry Dash - Hexagon Force (F-Zero Maximum Velocity Remix) CosmicTailz 2025-07-13 | This one had a tempo that wasn't a multiple of 5 and it made me twitchHexagon Force has always been one of my favourite songs/levels in GD, the first time I saw it was waaay back in 2016 when I was browsing YouTube in my school's computer lab and came across a video featuring a fanmade concept for a multiplayer mode. I only had the lite version of the game (it only had Stereo Madness up to xStep at the time) and had absolutely no idea what the levels in the full game looked like. Needless to say, it absolutely blew my mind. And here we are now, nearly a decade later, with 2.2[06] out AND some type of versus mode confirmed to be included in the base game in a later update.Realized too late (as I was typing this description) that I forgot to render an oscilloscope visualizer to use as an overlay... oh well, too late now lol
Brickracerz (Beta) - Official Trailer CosmicTailz 2025-07-02 | GO PLAY: roblox.com/games/106001424256840/Brickracerz-BETAThis is Brickracerz, a game I've been working on since February of this year that aims to bring life back to the genre of janky old Roblox racing games while mixing in some subtle concepts that would've been near-impossible to pull off back in the day. I figured I'd make a trailer for the game since a lot of people seem to think that it isn't out yet (even though I've posted most of the game's OST already), and I wanna bring a bit more attention to it.Special thanks to all the people who joined in to help record some of the footage for this trailer :D
Mario Kart World - Mario Bros. Circuit (Mario Kart DS Style) CosmicTailz 2025-06-12 | That's a whole lotta Mario in the titleI've been playing MKWorld for a little while now, and one of the first earworms I've gotten from it is this theme in particular. After hearing it a couple times online, I started to imagine what it'd sound in some other MK styles, one of them being DS. After I started trying to build it myself, I had to take a while to re-familiarize myself with MKDS's soundfont since it naturally sounds a lot more empty than what I'm used to, and there are many places where you can't really avoid having awkward silent gaps in an arrangement.This is probably the first Mario Kart title that I've picked up on its launch day, and I'm honestly really glad I did, because it is a BLAST. They twisted the original formula even more than I expected, and it's packed with enough stuff that you probably wouldn't get through the whole game in just an afternoon alone even if you tried. I HIGHLY recommend that you experience the game blind if you haven't played or seen gameplay of it yet.
BS F-Zero Grand Prix - White Land (CosmicTailz Remix) CosmicTailz 2025-06-05 | Pride month is here, so I've decided to celebrate by making a remix of White Land, a venue with colourful scenery that might remind you of a certain flag :3 🏳️⚧️The world is scary right now, but you're not alone — *we're* not alone. Take care out there, y'all. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
BS F-Zero Grand Prix - Port Town (CosmicTailz Remix) CosmicTailz 2025-05-22 | THAT'S RIGHT WE USING FZX DRUMS NOWBS F-Zero's version of Port Town has always been one of my favourite themes in the entire series, it's the only arrangement in BSFZGP that isn't based on an existing remix (the rest were either ripped directly from the SFC Game Music Album or were sequenced arrangements based on tracks from the F-Zero Jazz Album... or were Sand Storm) and it kicks ass in every single way.Huge shoutout to Tony Thai (AKA MIDIMan) for providing the X drum samples, as well as some other stuff (mainly the synth brass sample I used in this remix): youtube.com/watch?v=_ICOH2BLjEg"WELCOME TO QUEEN LEAGUE" Bucky Koba soundbite sampled from BS F-Zero Grand Prix Week 2: youtube.com/watch?v=8Ebw_hsrYD0
BS F-Zero Grand Prix - Big Blue (CosmicTailz Remix) CosmicTailz 2025-05-19 | That's right, this ain't no soundfont remix, I'm spreading my wings and going apeshit on my keyboard to create conglomerates in OpenMPT now. And this is only the beginning...Also 10 PM upload moment weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
F-Zero Custom Track - Salvaged Scrapyard II CosmicTailz 2025-05-13 | This track came to me in a dream. I'm not kidding.A couple days ago I had a dream that F-Zero 99 got a huge update that added an entirely original league that had two tracks from a new venue called "Salvaged Scrapyard". SScI was the first track in the league, and SScII (the one I recreated) was second to last. I don't remember anything about the other 3 tracks unfortunately, but maybe someday I'll dream about it again and fill in more details.There were also a good few other details that weren't attached to the new league, which I jotted down at 4:30 in the morning (around a couple minutes after I woke up from it), if you want to read the rest of what I remembered, I posted all of my notes on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/cosmictailz.bsky.social/post/3loy74uphck2k
Geometry Dash - Stereo Madness (F-Zero Maximum Velocity Remix) CosmicTailz 2025-04-29 | Ironically this is possibly the slowest Maximum Velocity remix I've ever madeNot gonna recreate the rest of the game's soundtrack like this, but I might do one or two more songs that I think would fit with this soundfont.Oscilloscope rendered via Corrscope github.com/corrscope/corrscope
Echoes of a Greedy Past (Cart Ride Mountain) - Brickracerz CosmicTailz 2025-04-27 | Atop this mountain resides remnants of a small "cart ride" that also functioned as a gold mine in more ways than one, it was later shut down after the people who ran it were caught red-handed with their stash of stolen cash and anything green that they could get their hands on.
Zeus Whack-A-Mole (Thunder Jungle) - Brickracerz CosmicTailz 2025-04-27 | A jungle where storms brew nonstop almost year-round, housing a family of trees that've adapted to the weather over millions of years and have the toughest bark out of any tree in the world. A small exhibit was built in the middle of it, covered almost entirely by giant metal sheets to protect tourists from lightning.
Midnight Snowball Fight (White Woods) - Brickracerz CosmicTailz 2025-04-27 | A little air pocket between a couple of highway tunnels that go through a large mountain, high up enough that the snow never completely melts even in the summer.
Race of the Ancients (Oasis Raceway) - Brickracerz CosmicTailz 2025-04-27 | A track that was built a long, long time ago around a few oases in the middle of a mostly empty desert. To this day, how it was used in ancient times and what resides within the temples around it is still unknown.
Shoreline Groove (Jolly Bloxxer Bay) - Brickracerz CosmicTailz 2025-04-27 | An island out in the middle of the ocean that was taken control of by pirates, and was used to store all of the gold that they found. The island was later transformed into a race track by them for people to compete on, and the winners would receive extra gold from them as a reward.
Truckin Downhill (Smash Hill) - Brickracerz CosmicTailz 2025-04-27 | Somewhere out in the middle of a dusty red desert lies Smash Hill, named after the dangerous twist on "king of the hill" that used to be played by the locals, where one group of people would drive down the hill in rusty old trucks to try and run over other people who tried to climb up to the top.
Test Drive (Brickbuilt Circuit) - Brickracerz CosmicTailz 2025-04-27 | One of the oldest manmade tracks in the land, kept well-maintained through every season of every year since its creation
CosmicTailz - Pushin Forward (F-Zero 99 Headcanon Theme) CosmicTailz 2025-04-23 | Here's something I've had in the backlog for a while, a little theme for my four (soon to be eight) machines!Prior to 1.6, I decided to give each of my machines a name and personality, since I've always viewed them as little self-sustaining beings rather than just vehicles.CHERRY (Cherry Thunder):The leader of the squad. Always determined to push herself to the limit and beyond, and is very passionate about racing.TIA (Rainbow Fox):An aspiring musical producer with a strong attitude. Likes to drift around a lot, and is the fastest of the four, with her only drawback being her stamina.XAVIER (Mirror Swan):A Murder Geese exile, who was kicked out for "being a wuss". Driving about in the open wilderness for months made their body reflect the colours of the sky, hence their machine name.SORA (Frozen Tsunami):The most capable of the four, only held back by his own clumsiness and inability to control himself at his top speed. Despite his flaws, he can persevere in even the direst of situations.
Faceball 2000 - Main Theme (CosmicTailz Remix) CosmicTailz 2025-04-22 | Recently I decided to give Faceball 2000 a shot (no pun intended) after watching SSFF's video about how he spent 2 years trying to get a 16-player game going. It unfortunately didn't run very well through mGBA, so I ended up playing it on my DSi using a hypervisor instead.After playing up to level 21, the theme had gotten stuck in my head, and as usual with songs that end up that way, I decided to make a remix of it! Obviously it's not 100% faithful to original GB/GBC hardware due to how many channels I used (and the fact that I used sampled drums), but I still stuck with square/sawtooth waves for most of the instruments.
Oscilloscope Test CosmicTailz 2025-04-18 | I've been wanting to add some sort of visualizer to my music videos for a while, but I never got around to actually looking for one. This was rendered using Corrscope, which I'd just came across earlier today.If you're in the same situation that I was in (or just want a neat-looking oscilloscope program), you can download it here:github.com/corrscope/corrscope
F-Zero Maximum Velocity Prototype - The Ancient Aqua / Silence (Reimagined) CosmicTailz 2025-04-17 | This song has been looping in my head for a while now, so I decided to try my hand at remixing it to fit along with all the other songs in the final release version of Maximum Velocity :3cFor those who're curious or confused, The Ancient Aqua is a scrapped venue that was seen in an early F-Zero Maximum Velocity prototype shown in an internal NOA VHS (which is where the image in the video comes from). In said prototype, a couple songs that were left in the release version's SFX bank could be heard on the title screen and during the short gameplay showcase. The track itself was re-used in the final game as Cloud Carpet - Icarus Circuit.For whatever reason, when this song was found unused in the final version of F-Zero Maximum Velocity, people thought it was the theme used on Silence, the single playable track in single-pak multiplayer mode, despite it not having any music at all in-game.
Red Crater (F-Zero - Red Canyon but its MV Crater Land) 2024 Edition | Faceless Files CosmicTailz 2025-04-06 | Date Created: September 25, 2023, 12:51:15 PMDate Modified: March 17, 2024, 4:32:24 PMA much more refined version of one of my first Maximum Velocity remixes/HQRs, focusing a bit more on sounding decent than being faithful to GBA sound hardware limits (which I've rarely ever actually followed).This was initially going to have two separate loops, but I ended up scrapping the idea because I couldn't figure out how to make it sound good. Rather than deleting it though, I separated it from the rest of the patterns in the file, so it still exists, but it doesn't play in the song.
Fortunate Son but its just the first note looped for almost exactly 3 minutes CosmicTailz 2025-03-31 | Basically just an extended/remade version of this one section from a YTP: youtube.com/watch?v=ik_sP5JWRvM&t=382s
BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 (Week 1) - Expert Mode Playthrough (w/ Added Music) CosmicTailz 2025-03-30 | This ain't a dream, nor is it the practice cart that everybody thinks it is, BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 has been (partially) found after over 25 years! This is only week 1, however, meaning that the original data for Forest III and Metal Fort I/II are still lost as of yet.Like the first four leagues, the original game requires an activation signal that would've been received via the Satellaview broadcasting service in order to somewhat synchronize every system running the game at the time. Without it, the game will get stuck on the initial starting screen. This can be bypassed with a simple patch to the ROM, and the game can continue as normal without the need for expensive hardware to simulate said signal.For more information, check out this article written by LuigiBlood:superfamicom.org/blog/2025/03/we-found-bs-f-zero-grand-prix-2-week-1BACKGROUND MUSIC (In order of appearance):Intro: Title - F-Zero Jazz Album youtube.com/watch?v=mCHvhRfF5YgCourse Demonstration: Freedom to Fly - Tony MacAlpine youtube.com/watch?v=zSAMeagAH7oMachine Select: Disciples of Fear - Tony MacAlpine (Looped) youtube.com/watch?v=uivSv0k0WGYForest I: Forest I - F-Zero Expanded Soundtrack (Golden Edition)Practice Results: Naked Nancy - Tony MacAlpine youtube.com/watch?v=wAA-0JV2z-wBig Blue II: Big Blue II - F-Zero Expanded Soundtrack (Golden Edition)Sand Storm I: Sand Storm I - F-Zero Expanded Soundtrack (Golden Edition)Forest II: Forest II - F-Zero Expanded Soundtrack (Golden Edition)Silence II: Silence II - F-Zero Expanded Soundtrack (Golden Edition)Ending: Ending - F-Zero Jazz Album youtube.com/watch?v=qAp6QjVduksI do not claim ownership of any of the songs listed here (apart from ones from the F-Zero Expanded Soundtrack), they're used in this video to remain faithful to the original broadcasts (or as close as possible, as some songs were composed in-house by Nintendo and/or St.GIGA and have not been released officially).
F-Zero Encore (Cancelled) - Metal Fort | Faceless Files CosmicTailz 2025-03-22 | Date Created: February 26, 2024, 7:42:04 PMDate Modified: February 28, 2024, 7:42:30 PMWhile I was digging around for songs to throw into my "unreleased" folder, I was reminded of some of the music I made for a romhack that I ultimately never finished, particularly this one. FZES Metal Fort is, in my opinion, one of the best compositions I've ever made, and there was no way I was gonna let this one rot on my flash drive. Thus, I threw it in with all of my other miscellaneous remixes.

Only thing missing from this is a central bass channel to even out the width, and of course, the non-fucked snare drum sample (seriously, why does GBAMR rip it like that???)

A Quick Look at Brickracerzs Prototype Version CosmicTailz 2025-03-17 | Brickracerz is a little racing game that I've been developing on and off for the past couple years, with remnants going as far back as August 2022. In this video, I went through a prototype version of the game that I later scrapped almost entirely due to it being poorly scripted as a result of old habits.I released the game a while ago and am still actively working on it along with a couple others who're making maps for the game, here's the game link if you'd like to give it a try!roblox.com/games/106001424256840/Brickracerz-BETA
BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 - Forest I/III (MKDS Soundfont) | Faceless Files CosmicTailz 2025-03-16 | Date Created: January 5, 2024, 8:42:22 AMDate Modified: January 5, 2024, 3:50:22 PMAaaaand we're starting off 2024 with another case of "I kinda hate it but I'm gonna upload it anyway", I'm not really too fond of this one since the last half of the song is pretty much just a copy and pasted drum loop that slowly gets harder to follow as it goes on.This won't be the last you see of Forest, by the way.
compilation of dumb videos and edits Ive made CosmicTailz 2025-03-10 | Most of these videos are now locked behind my dead Twitter account so I decided to make a compilation of them so that people can watch them again (and so that people know that I'm the one who made them)Some videos are also cut short because there's not much going on in them apart from a static image with background music
Big Blue Mix | Faceless Files CosmicTailz 2025-03-09 | Date Created: December 19, 2023, 11:29:44 AMDate Modified: December 22, 2023, 10:27:58 PMThis arrangement was largely experimental, and marked the beginning of a transition into a new era for my GPL/CX remixes. I started using proper vibrato effects (Hxy effect commands instead of sequential Exx/Fxx, or portamento down/up), and began experimenting with stereo width by playing a different guitar instrument in each ear using X00 and XFF commands. It sounds pretty lopsided here though, since I used the all-high distorted guitar paired with the lead guitar instead of the all-low distorted guitar that I use nowadays.
F-Zero - Silence but its 10 Years in the Future | Faceless Files CosmicTailz 2025-03-04 | Date Created: April 6, 2023, 2:39:39 PMDate Modified: December 17, 2023, 3:08:22 PMOnly took nearly 2 years lmao, started working on this pretty much immediately after uploading Death Wind (and didn't finish it until nearly the end of the same year cuz I'm lazy)For me this one is kinda half-n-half, the organ chords sound really nice but as soon as the second half hits, it HITS. And it hits HARD. TOO hard, even.
