Frozen Lava Land

By Pongball on January 15, 2012 11:58 pm

This started out as a rejected winter theme for Bloom Defender (a cartoony tower defense game I wrote music for). It didn't fit the game, but I always thought it was an interesting track that had lots of potential, so I'm happy to have finally finished it. I sorta ran out of time towards the end though, so it's really rough in spots. tongue I'll probably end up retouching it before uploading it elsewhere.


(Crap, I just realized the second loop is screwed up.)

game music, that is your business ... cool stuff

Wow - you know what you are doing!!  This intro is wondrous. Great track - the trills, timings and atmospheres are all spot on.  Oh and the little breaks are amazing.  Top work man.

cooool

Aaron: I guess it didn't quite fit the mood, and was too melodic (they needed not-so-melodic music for the levels).

Thanks for the comments, guys. I'm glad a few people enjoyed it, despite its flaws. I'm working on a more polished version right now, and I'll link to it in the song description once I'm finished.

I'm really sorry about the second loop being messed up--hope it didn't hurt any ears. sad  I guess Sonar didn't copy over all the volume automation when copied and pasted everything, and some of the string parts are deafeningly loud as a result. Unfortunately, I didn't notice until after I had uploaded the file.

Great sounds throughout. The breaks are my favorite parts.

Solid composition.  The small percussion tones are nicely done and I like the double bass lines.

Reminds me of some of the soundtrack for Sonic Adventure for the Dreamcast, nostalgic!
