The foundation of PLATFORM is this F# major hexachord ostinato. The ostinato pattern is taken from another STRAYLIGHT track - Ascent of the Juggernaut. (Can you hear where? π€) This long chord progression is taken from the STRAYLIGHT main theme (just titled STRAYLIGHT.) The difference here is, even though the notes are the same, the tonal center is F# whereas B is the tonic in the main theme. This is accomplished via the different inflections in the melodies of each piece. The effect being that PLATFORM feels more grounded, and the main theme feels both familiar but groundless, just like the gaming experience.

![Learning a Song in 10 Minutes: Hideout of the Chickens from Digital Saga
During a live Twitch stream, chat challenged me to learn a song I had never heard before. I spent less than 10 minutes learning it by ear, then performed it from memory on piano.
This video is part of my β10-Minute Live Learnsβ series.
0:00 - Learning Phase
5:45 - Performance [Loop]
