In February, for February Album Writing Month, my game design group did a month-long music jam where we all worked on songs for a hypothetical soundtrack for a made-up survival horror / adventure game!
The game is set in an abandoned shopping mall next to the mysterious Crater Lake. A group of teens ventured inside to check out the empty shopping center, only to find it haunted with a variety of supernatural and interdimensional creatures. After the teens wind up trapped inside, some of their older siblings & their friends venture in to rescue them, with the help of a duo of Paranormal Investigators.
So far as a group we've created 14 tracks--enough to 'win' the FAWM challenge! We're taking the first couple of weeks to finalize things & then we plan to put the album together for release sometime toward the end of the month. Here's a list of what we've made so far:
A little worksheet minizine I made to get myself thinking about what I might want from communal living, and to share with friends who might be interested, too!
"Soup Night" is a spooky/silly soup song I wrote in 2022 for the Mastodon Scary Stories Contest! I've recently arranged it into a song & put together this music video for it.
Me & my pal Hex made a trading card generator for people to create their own 'FediCards' to express themselves on the Fediverse (an assortment of interconnected social media platforms, like Mastodon!). We made it with the Fediverse in mind, but it also can be used for other things, too!
At the end of 2023 I spent some time rounding up a ton of my old music projects--everything from completed albums to short ideas & unfinished explorations. I wanted to put it all in one place, and also to make them available for folks who want to check them out. Right now the bundle can be purchased on itch.io for $3! Eventually I wanna make a 'pirateable' version & release torrent files for them.
