Very cool track! Love the harmony specially the fist progression which has a kind of misterious vibe, love the melody too very nice and fun, awesome work!!

Thanks so much! It's in G minor so I went from G minor to Ab major quite a bit there

This definitely took me to a retro-animated video game cutscene with a futuristic lift going down to some difficult new level. I particularly liked the phrase right at the end - with the b2 - 1 in the melody, the instrument choices were great - nice work!

Love how spooky this sounds!

This elevator is definitely a loading zone before the anime-styled bloodbath at the bottom...

minor key bossa, very spooky and fun. It has something like a gothic lolita style going on with it, like  an 80s horror-adjacent anime theme.

Gothic lolita 80s horror-adjacent anime; I think you just invented a new, very niche subgenre! Thanks!

I like that this would work as haunted waiting room music as well as a truly macabre ballroom dance track! If you ever decide to rearrange some of your tracks for orchestra, make sure not to leave this one behind. Bravo! 

Developer

That's a great suggestion. I love doing that but I hadn't considered it for this one. Thanks a lot.

I quite love this! I especially like the little riffs (if that's what they're called?) where whatever key you're in at the moment (it's like the D-Eb-D-C#-D); the placement of those is just right on it!

Developer(+1)

Awesome, I'm glad you like them. I guess the technical term would be motifs? I've learned that a repeated element that reoccurs is an effective way to tie a work together.

Well, someone couldn't wait for halloween ;).
Reminds me a lot of Ichiro Shimakura's Work From the Mario Party series, especially the use of synth bass.
You might want to look into his work for inspiration for future pieces.

Developer

Awesome, thanks a lot! I'll check him out.

Sounds so fun and creative, I love the melody!!!!!!!

Thanks so much, StarBliss! It was a new genre for me and so quite challenging. I also learned how to use a synth to bend pitches which was a fun new discovery.
