Trying to finalize the music that will play in the background of the main menu.  Still trying to ease back into coding after my little vacation.

Going to listen to it in a few different places and might change the arrangement a bit.  It ends abruptly because it's setup to loop.  Eventually, I will give this to a proper sound engineer to finalize.

As a bonus, here is the ambient tune I wrote for the open source game Monkey Trap: (sort of a game... was an example of using a piece of tech and it works well for that but the game isn't done.)

...I may use it in Mythruna also somewhere.  Wandering in dungeons or whatever.

And while I'm on the subject, the old link to the fiddle music was busted....

Ahmg, beautiful music, Paul. I've been trying to teach myself to make music as well, and uhh.. hasn't worked out so far.

Hehe, reminded me of pirate music.

Well, writing music is one thing.  Time and experience and there are lots of sites online that can help.

...but full score orchestral compositions is quite a different thing.  Not so many video tutorials on that!   That's where most of my learning goes these days.

But for example, the dungeon ambient one is based on something I wrote way back in the 90s using a mod tracker.  I had my own MUD that I wrote with a custom telnet client that could do things like play music or in-built sound effects.  That was one of the tracks I wrote for that... obviously fixed up quite a bit and some of the sillier parts removed.
