A Darkish Dungeony Cavey Place

This week my toploader NES decided to give up the ghost. So at the last minute with a loaner modded NES from Tonight We Launch I was able to do a improvisational composition tweaking the arp parameters in a minor key.

UGH, first the power adapter and now this.

What is that spring reverby snare sound from?  MidiNES???  Did you sequence this with the octatrack again?

This is a great composition.  Loved the noise channel breakdown with the melody line "expanding".  u rok d00d

That was a sample from the Octa (as was the sub-bass kick and hi-hat accents). Yeah. It's just bad all around. I'll be able to mod the NES this week but CMON.

If you didn't have bad luck, you wouldn't have any luck at all, right?  But it's amazing that you are still powering through and not letting excuses stop you!  BIRD UP

Neat little game job!

The point of no return, when the hero knows he won't return alive...Great track!

Got an updated version on my Soundcloud with the newly repaired toploader. Just seems more expressive and clear.
