Track description | Creative process
This song loops one time in this upload

I tried to go for a funky "sleazy store" vibe when making this.

I also tried my best to make the song sound like it could have been played on a SNES sound chip.

If anyone has any bits of advice of feedback they can give I'm all
ears.

What I enjoyed most from this track is the phrases used. I also like your arrangement and instrumentation of your track especially the bass and drums! Perhaps this may not be too much in the style of Earthbound, but I feel like this could make great shop music too -- maybe have it at a slower tempo (+swing?) since shopping music is usually more of BGM.

This is like when a bunch of greasers show up while you're shopping and start bullying you and taking your stuff. Definitely has a retro snes vibing and its very reminiscent of earthbound but some of the samples took me out of it. It sounds lofi but somehow still too clear. I think maybe it has to many high frequencies, i might be wrong but i feel like the snes samples often sounded more muffled. regardless, very cool sleazy track.

Even if  it matches the earthbound world pretty well, I think it brings too much action vibes for a shop music.
The music in itself is well balanced, every part makes sense, I think at some point switching the bass line for something else would improve the piece.
