watermelon lemonade

feels like i got a ticket on a space-cruise to a lush jungle planet and was given a local drink smile  especially enjoyed the uplifting rhythm and lead melody.  Nice work!

Such game music vibes!  Awesome. I got all those images that Tone Matrix was talking about - like I’m playing an RPG on my PS1.  smile

I really like this... I can't place it, but it really strongly reminds me of an OG Gameboy game... like as soon the melody came in a could see like grey green pixelated sprites of clouds... I want to say it was a platform, but could have been an RPG... But this could easily be score for a game like Evoland... very well done.

My vote is SNES RPG, haha. But I love the vibes. It's like we just found out the weird character we've been helping out, who has the head of a watermelon slice for some reason, has an entire secret cave city of his people.

Definitely getting the retro RPG vibes others described. You've got a great ear for making cymbals interesting/different than expected but not distracting, the interplay with the triangle(?) is so cool. The kind of pitched drum thing in the background is also pretty wild, didn't notice it at all on the first listen.

my vote is Joe and Mac!

wonderful piece, too short!

Cut hole in melon, stuff a ton of lemons and sugar in melon, BLEND THAT SHIT, put straw in melon, delight
but seriously this is great vibins', the kinda tune I see being used played in an early 90's CG demo reel

nice work! def game soundtrack material

THIRST // QUENCH

so fun! i want to visit this world for at least a week

Thank you! Funny that, I've been feeling pretty nostalgic for GBA adventures / rpgs lately.

Thanks so much! Playing around with the backing percussion was fun. (And yep, a triangle!)

Aw, thank you!

this is what plays in my head as I sip watermelon lemonade in this sweltering sun. At :35 I have a slight awareness that winter is around the corner, but I shake the feeling and enjoy the present.
Sweet track!
