Artist notes
Remember the MuseScore Scores of my things tend almost always to have very different instruments because MuseScore is far more limited than the Roland FA-08 in its total tone selections. Repurposed from my overlapping timeframe jam submission to Jam This Album!, the fourth track of that jam.

very different but cool!

Glad you had a good time of it, i tend to push myself to be exact-opposite of contemporary like repetitive music as best I can so that when people find my stuff it's like falling in the event horizon of a black hole WAAAH ITS FULL OF STARZ--Dave Bowman, 2001 A Space Odyssey

as closely as i can get that experience :)

gave you an Itch follow, if you like the things on my page(s), consider doing the same.

Cheers!

This certainly goes on quite the journey! I feel like the different sections could have more in common with each other as it tended to wander at times. The Heroic ending was cool, and a very different take on the artwork.

Glad you had a good time, I tend to tunnel first and if i have the time (sometimes it's a big if, juggling a 9-5 job) I re-tread and make sure recurring motifs are properly spaced out in the piece (s).

I don't feel like it matches the prompt for this submission much, but it seems a better fit for the artwork you have on your project. Seems like those two went on quite the journey! :D I can tell you put a lot of time and effort into this! Good job!

Yeah i was more-so bending propriety so that I could take some relief after several overlapping jams.  Glad you enjoyed it.

Really good music

Very interesting! It seems like you made a decision to interpret their death as a victory, which is unexpected for me, but not unreasonable, and done quite deliberately here. 

The 'laser' was a bit overbearing in the mid section for my liking, but otherwise it was great, very jazzy. Did you record it in directly? Either way, you managed quite a free flow in parts while still being very rhythmically (and harmonically) sound. Nice!

Edgar didn't die he got stuck in whatever SlothMUD's equivalent of a carbonite slab is :)

Barozek had to retreat, but more like a rematch is coming someday.

It may well be that the earlier version in the Jam This Album! Jam was a better, more conservative instrument choice-set.

Glad you gave it a go.
