![Song That Plays When You Stand up Too Fast and Get Dizzy
Had some sleeping issues, so I made this little beat while I was awake. I worked off of that feeling you get when youre really tired (which also felt like that feeling when you stand up too fast). I will get some sleep now, but I hope you enjoy!

► Full Song [Daemon Navis] - 10:27
Making video game music with free programs. Its actually not that crazy at all, but I thought itd be a fun way to show people how they could get started if they dont have a budget to start with! Many composers out there have used free programs (Toby Fox being a big one). The rest comes from practice and experience. This was a super fun video and I hope you guys enjoy!
