Description
The file is a collection of three musical sections, and a final failure state sound. Each section (barring the failure state) is loopable, with variation added by a glitching beat repeat effect. It is imagined as a side-scrolling adventure game, with elements where the world is completely together, as well as moments where everything seems to be falling apart.
The first piece is the main hub theme, establishing the sonic world that is being entered. The second piece is a minor boss theme, with each section loopable then able to move on when another part of the fight is occuring. The third piece is when the big boss has broken through to the more together world and is trying to break it apart, with each section moving on as different stages of the boss battle occurs.
Everything was created within Ableton, with a blend of live recordings of a toy piano and voice and digital instruments/effect.
Theme:
How does it fit the theme?
The "two worlds" are represented by the "together" world, as shown by the more realistic instrumentation, fighting against the "broken" world, as shown by the glitched instrumentation. The picture theme is represented by the glitching, with the glitches being the bridge between the two in-world games.
