Beginner

How does your piece use the theme, Inclement Weather?
For this song I interpreted inclement weather by having a short, repeated motif inspired by the jingle of a breaking news report one might see on TV or hear on the radio. I also used 6/8 time, which tends to be associated with pirate/shanty music a lot- but here I wanted to utilize it for people to make the connection of untamed waters.

What tools did you use? (DAW, instruments, sample libraries, etc.)
This song was made on FL Studio, and it utilizes the in-program MiniSynth.

Nice use of rhythm and changes in pitch to convey a sense of danger! I think this would be a great BGM for the game you describe.

The alternating high and low beeps gave me the feeling of a news alert which is a neat way to tie into the theme.
