During 2017 and 2018, I studied music production. Since then, I've published virtually no content - but I still made this page to keep track of what I
Galaxian Recordings' Super Euroheroes Vol. 5 (released 31/12/2022)
Album on Bandcamp
Finally, an escape from the Touhou slop. I was supposed to contribute a second song to this album, but it was cut by physical media restraints at the last minute. The song that DID get included, however, is probably my best attempt at actual eurobeat to date! The song's "acoustic" intro is based on one of the first simple demos I made of the song, as the lyrics very much came first (unlike most of my songs). Also a default VOCALOID6 voice gets the spotlight for reasons that definitely don't have anything to do with KAITO being impossible to mix like a regular human, so hey.
the joke is that it's not actually about tokusatsu
Galaxian Recordings' Touhou Euroheroes Vol. 3 (released 29/04/2024)
Album on Bandcamp
Oops, I did it again; twice, because of an emergency that led to me needing to complete "Fortunate Kitten Sells Itself"- a remix I intended to save for a future release - within a week of the deadline! I struggled to write the lyrics in a timely manner, and made it up to about halfway through the second verse before giving up and asking the album's producer for help on the rap part. The lyrics would have probably been more cynical across the board if he didn't step in. (lol)
The other song (Dough War Of The Century) was sitting around like 90% finished for ages, and I slapped on some details in time for the deadline. It's basically a horribly cheesy E-Rotic eurodance song that made its way onto a eurobeat compilation, which samples maybe 25% of the original song's melody if that - maybe it's more like one of those modern pop songs that sample an older song rather than being a full-on remix. It's still easier for me to re-listen to than the other 2hu crap I've made so far though

I committed a crime against my own moral compass, and remixed a Touhou Project song for a compilation - with Vocaloid vocals, no less! I loosely based the remix's concept on the Rensenware "virus" (IMO the most amusing thing that's ever come out of the 2hu fandom), and turned it into italodisco - a genre that I think is adjacent to eurobeat enough to get away with it. I quickly finished the song's lyrics within 3 days, and it shows 😶 If I could go back to rewrite them, I would
Galaxian Recordings' Super Euroheroes Vol. 4 (released 29/04/2022)
Album on Bandcamp
I semi-impulsively made a remix of a song from a previous "Super Euroheroes" album. Despite the remix not even being remotely eurobeat-adjacent, they eventually decided to include it on this album as a bonus track anyway! It features multilingual woes with a Japanese-only Vocaloid - with another contributor to the album mishearing one of the first lines as "let's start the pain"

Even in the other site sections, the StepMania still bleeds in, eh? Anyway, I made remixes for the BGMs of the "Simply Ducks" and "Simply Stars" visual styles (sub-themes, essentially). "Simply Ducks" has a chiptune remix of "Xuxa" from the first In The Groove game - "Simply Stars" has a faux chiptune remix of "Shooting Star" by Bang!.
I vaguely remember the 20th of November being involved somehow as well...
