Orbital Enigma

I must admit I got obsessed with the game Outer Wilds and when I listened this week's song, I think it shows.
The soundtrack is quite sparse but without it, the game would be nothing.
I didn't really plan to create anything specific and I just started with the saturated cowbell. From there, all the other parts fell in place quite naturally.

I might have spend a couple hours on that track and I realize that it's difficult for me to spend more time on a song, am I alone?

I guess you noticed the Game Boy sounds that pop in my tunes regularly (if not every week); I can't really deny that I still love chiptune!

Thanks for commenting and bringing a new perspective to my tracks! It really helps!

CHIPTUNE FOR THE WIN

gotta sprinkle it in, it's like salt.

I think the WB mantra is to spend time on a song and then move on.  After each song you'll learn something and add it to your XP, and then eventually you level up and write a song with your new ideas/skills smile
