Obsolete Sky OcularNebula 2013-11-27 | to download song: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/557896the sky is an archaic construct and must be done away with!mmmmm, so this is like some kind of trancy house, but mostly it's just me playing with portamento leads, chopping them up and stuff, as I tend to dothe result was an incredibly loose monophonic melody and stutter variationit's pretty cool, if you can follow its contour, though it's still rather strange and very heavy on the porta (also, I'm super biased and I think porta is AWESOME)the additional harmonic support in the recapitulation frames it a bit more, so there's thatmiddle section is a bit more typically sonorous, and the chords are sooooo ostinatoalso, WOODBLOX!!this piece was very fun to make
harubi OcularNebula 2020-10-06 | I managed to recover some .mp3s of my old unfinished projects, so I guess I'll be posting them here now.2015 and earlier ~ vibes.It's sort of experimental - starts out barely harmonic, then when the other layers come in turns totally different.Way too short of an idea, and probably too much high pass used, but hey it's at least a pretty interesting combo of sounds. Kinda warbly, kinda wispy. Waspy.
clukwurk OcularNebula 2020-08-23 | I managed to recover some .mp3s of my old unfinished projects, so I guess I'll be posting them here now.2015 and earlier ~ vibes.This overcompressed mishmash was heavily 'inspired' by the middle section of the Venice level music from Timesplitters: Future Perfect, which in itself is a remix of the Clockwork Orange theme, which in itself is also a remix of Henry Purcell's Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary from like 300 years ago. How derivative.
Medieval OcularNebula 2020-08-21 | Remember Rogue Legacy?? Sooo, sometime around early 2013, this tune was made to be the intro music for the game (or one version of it), but Cellar Door Games didn't end up using it because it didn't quite fit the theme and there were some other issues as well. The harpsichord was a- ummm bold choice, really quite piercing, and you can hear the quality of a few of the instruments is a bit wack (and the pitch in some parts ranges too high and sounds really tinny). And so, into the unpolished/unfinished bin it went... UNTIL NOW.ALSO, by complete coincidence, Rogue Legacy 2 is out in Early Access since like 2 days ago!! Of course, it's still in the early stages of development, but it looks like it resembles the original quite closely, and I really enjoyed playing through the first one, including New Game +, and New Game ++, though I never got a hang of the remix bosses. So anyway, check it out if rogue-lites are your cup of cocoa, jussayin.
vulg OcularNebula 2020-08-03 | I managed to recover some .mp3s of my old unfinished projects, so I guess I'll be posting them here now.2015 and earlier ~ vibes.I'm pretty sure I was using this waveform in Massive called 'Vulgar', but instead of being vulgar it turned into a kinda quaint melody with some quirky chromaticism in the bass. Comfy.That percussion loop though... honestly pretty lame, but oh well.
lisandra OcularNebula 2020-07-29 | I managed to recover some .mp3s of my old unfinished projects, so I guess I'll be posting them here now.2015 and earlier ~ vibes.Oooohh, this one's wacky. Starts out simple enough with a piano based melody, then warps the flip out of it. All the additional layers completely change the feel, it's pretty much all over the place, yet feels incomplete. It's warped and warbled, sorta wishy-washy and faded. Anyway, I think I probably went overboard with all the weird fx - hence why I never figured out how to polish and finish this one up. It's pretty different, definitely were some cool ideas though.

Then there's the crunchy jank transition in the middle with the crushed Alain Badiou voice sample. After that everything actually comes together pretty well, I think. Catchy.

Baroquen Music Box - Revenge of the Vox OcularNebula 2020-04-21 | I managed to recover some .mp3s of my old unfinished projects, so I guess I'll be posting them here now.2015 and earlier ~ vibes.=$= ＴＨＥ ＶＯＸ ＨＡＶＥ ＲＥＴＵＲＮＥＤ =$=Ok, so this was clearly supposed to be a sequel to Baroquen Music Box Re-Invention, but I kinda gave up on it as I didn't feel it was living up to the original. Just like all sequels ever.The first melody in the original was so upbeat and hype with the syncopation, and this one doesn't really match it - it's a lot more straightforward and measured. The texture is also pretty empty - that's the unfinished factor.Still, the gimmick is the same - lots of tempo automation. Again, probably not as much as in the original, but you get the idea. I took a pretty sweet premise that worked once before, and it just wasn't as inspiring the second time around.

boomes aeon OcularNebula 2020-04-10 | I managed to recover some .mp3s of my old unfinished projects, so I guess I'll be posting them here now.2015 and earlier ~ vibes.This one's pretty minimal but with lots of delay and reverb on the main instrument to fill up space and create the illusion that there's more happening than there actually is. Clever.Overall, I actually really like the feel - sorta calm and smooth, albeit simple. I just wish I made it longer, added some transitions, some sweepy effects or whatever, maybe some extra percussion, just to fill it out a bit more. Obviously there isn't a proper ending. That's going to be the case for most of these - just the lack of polish/length.
miniman OcularNebula 2020-04-09 | I managed to recover some .mp3s of my old unfinished projects, so I guess I'll be posting them here now.2015 and earlier ~ vibes.This one was pretty excessive with the kicks/sidechain and altogether overcompressed; even though that was kinda the idea, it didn't really pan out. Also, the second half doesn't really add much.But yeah, it's a short loop with a heavier electro style, that's it.ヾ(*＾▽ﾟ) ｂｙｅｂｙｅ！！

Monomate Camelon OcularNebula 2013-12-13 | to download song: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/559712an older piece based on a bit of a gimmickthe idea here was to only use monomate for ALL of the sounds, and then touch them up with some camel plug-ins (CamelSpace, mostly (cuz it's the wackiest))so, monomate is a very simple monophonic VSTi made by Tweakbench, who is basically just one guy who develops a bunch of plug-ins, many of which are retro sounding, super accessible mini-synths, which you can download for free if you're at all interested in old-school chiptune-ish sounds, or you can support him by buying a bundle that includes everything for $5 (It's Windows only, though). I'm not really affiliated with him, so I'm basically just advertising for fun, though I do also have a lot of respect for indie dudes doing their thang, so there's thatthe piece itself is an interesting concoctionsince I technically couldn't use chords, I have a bunch of arps and other layers that sorta fill up the harmonysome of the camel fx may be too extreme with disproportionate amounts of resonance and such, but oh wellI guess balancing shit correctly will remain a task the subtleties of which will elude me forever!

Ah, childhood! Those were always a good time, and I would still really enjoy going on one, if only I weren't so morbidly obese.Let's talk shop for just a couple of sentences. The piano interlude is perhaps not entirely satisfactory. It does somewhat break character briefly, but introduces a theme that then gets a proper electro framing, which I like. Staccato plucks have always been a favorite of mine, so it's no surprise to see them here adorned with some glitchiness from everyone's favorite dBlue Glitch, though some parts could still use more presence. Honestly, everything could use more presence. What an elusive concept this "presence" is. If you're a producer, pitch in and tell me your thoughts on what accounts for the good sense of "presence" that is usually heard in a well made mix.all right, enough of that, let's have a good time

Tapioca OcularNebula 2013-10-14 | to download song: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/552930I'm just puddin' this here heheheehehegot some pretty smooth sounds, chord progression, you know, pretty much the whole miscellaneous shebangCAUTION: RANT AHEADSo, I do enjoy simple, conceptual sounds more often than not. Since a lot of my music is melodically driven, I tend to forego at least some of the "dressing" that is perhaps customary. While my music is usually not minimal (I suppose I'd view minimalism as an intentional and rigorous reduction of a medium to its fundamental elements) I do view some basic sounds as "sufficient" for carrying a melody or some melodic element of a phrase and hence make no further effort to add interest value to the sound itself, as that would possibly even distract from what I want the listener to focus on. In fact the melody carries itself (or should, at least).Take the guitar-ish sound from the middle section, for instance. It is basically just a monophonic pluck with some porta (made in Massive). The important details are that its pluckiness comes from an enveloped low pass filter variant (I used Scream, which is surprisingly smooth if you null the resonance), which reduces some of the high frequency content, making the pluck somewhat smoother, and the porta is a legato type, which is basically the only kind I ever use, since it allows you to shape your melody in a micro way and make it more diverse (as opposed to all-glide or no-glide). It's simple. It's functional. It incorporates the needs of my melodic considerations into its design, but nothing more (there is some more, such as reverb and some amplification stuff, but those basically no brainers).And that kind of approach appeals to me, because, mentally, I'm still in that stage where I often don't have the patience to engineer an entirely unique and complex sound from scratch, while also making sure it's capable of being used melodically.If you've heard Knife Party's "Sleaze", the gated formant lead they use is a good example of a sound that relies solely on its own design to provide interest value. I shan't muse for too long about what precisely defines a melody, but I think it's relatively safe to say that "Sleaze" contains basically no melodic content in the traditional sense, and that doesn't in the least stop it from being great music, because it just has really nice structure, sound design, and it's innovative, in some respects. It's just not the sort of music I'm good at, or even capable, of producing.I probably wouldn't mind being an electronic music guy in the 80s and/or 90s. Hell, even today's market pushes lots of software that emulates analogue sounds and whatnot. Must be some demand or interest in it, at least. But I feel like this is beside the point. Producers back then were doing the best they could with the tools available to them, and the same approach would equate to something totally different now. But, I'm emphasizing mere functionality.But, speaking of maximum utility, Massive is such a great VST, and for more than just bass sounds, though it seems like a lot of its appeal comes from that. Or maybe there's just a lot of online content that's just like "Oh, how do I make deh Skrillex wobbles, gotta use Massive". Yeah, I've used Modern Talking... ONCE. Anyway, this is all just a stereotype. People know that Massive is dynamic.rant.end();

Circumnavigating the Glob OcularNebula 2013-09-30 | to download song: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/551453yes, it's the GlobImagine traveling around a sparsely inhabited alien planet, much of the surface of which is covered by a dense, viscous fluid. You set sail in a magnificent vessel, crafted largely from organic materials found on one of the habitable islands with help from the natives. It seems crude in its design, but is highly functional, even allowing for complete submersion in the fluid, except in polar regions - a feature you intend to make full use of. The very appearance of the craft gives you a whiff of the peculiar culture that must have developed on these islands. The strange climate of this planet is fickle, and the many atmospheric phenomena you witness on your quest have a stark, raw beauty to them. Ion storms dissipate the soft phosphine clouds, tinting the sky a violent purple, as the harsh, overbearing light from the binary sun-stars illuminates the endless ripples your vessel leaves in the gooey substance in its wake. Diffuse aurorae blanket your field of vision at nights, and the discrete ones - an amateur artist's careless streaks on this mystical canvas of an alien sky - are much like the ones on Earth, but appear far more frequently here, often even during the daytime. You encounter few hostile creatures, among them a particularly aggressive flock of flightless xenobears, which you avoid by submerging, and a rather horny deep-sea creature that follows your ship for days, mistaking it for a mate, casually nudging and bumping it from various sides, however you quickly realize that the true danger of this planet lies in its erratic chemistry. During particularly humid days on the surface, the atmosphere gets so charged, that each heave of your ship sends a flurry of argon-blue sparks flying. But, who would willingly go on such a long and perilous voyage? Only a naive adventurer like yourself! Why, to forge knowledge of lands unknown, to lay eyes upon things unseen, to go where no man has gone before - can nothing spur a greater sense of discovery and wonderment? And as you eventually approach the conclusion of your journey, docking your ship at the makeshift harbor from which you began your travels, you sentimentally reflect that, despite all the foreign threats of this planet, all the endured hardships, all the wakeful nights of turbulence, you are ever so reluctant to flip the last page of this chapter of your life. But an adventurer's spirit never wanes, and, who knows, perhaps you'll be exploring another strange world in due time. Preferably, one with less gooey, sticky stuff all over the place. Ew. Totally gross.I'd like to thank FTL, Shatner, and Dune for all (some?) of the inspiration!
