Description
Desong (the only song I nominate for this jam) is a MIDI song inspired by German folk music. With its positive and light-hearted mood, it is intended to serve a scene in which characters (or a free-roaming camera) travel across nature on a sunny day. This soundtrack may also serve as a video game's credits theme, granted that the video game's theme matches the theme provided by this jam.

Theme

Picture theme

How does it fit the theme?
After listening to numerous German folk music, which coincidentally features music videos with scenery that matches the picture theme, I have been inspired to write a piece of my own; my goal for this piece was also to create a piece that could match the scenery (or picture theme of this jam) of the German folk music videos.

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I am aware that my Soundcloud links to Desong only, but it is appropriate because my other music pieces were not written for this jam.

This is freaking cute –  it makes my heart happy.  Awesome incorporation of cultural influence, and absolutely delightful instrumentation to facilitate it.  I need a sword and shield, a pint, and a pretzel!!

Did not expect to run into a Bavarian theme in this jam! Takes the theme in a unique direction, thanks for sharing!

A very fun and full of life tune, fitted well with the picture theme.

It feels like Snow White's tavern in Disneyland, the strategic place in the park where to pack plenty of bread, cheese and ham during the self-service breakfast provided by the hotel, in order to make plenty of sandwiches to keep you going all day ! It's charming, fun, with an energy that, with its characteristic melodies and rhythm, pulls at the corners of the lips to make people smile, even against their will. It's like the lightness of the 7 dwarfs in overalls dancing an Auvergne dance. It's cadential, it's very easy to listen to, and particularly catchy. A nice work with a sweet hint of beer served by a Norman cupboard. Well you won, I'm going to take a piece of Swiss chocolate square to go with the end of the piece, and imagine the wonderful adventure that this ultra-positive music could accompany under a bright sky and its green nature. A Tyrolean "Gold Saucer", perhaps?

It reminds me of old GBA games like pokemon ! Has such a nice folk feel to it :) It goes really well with the picture theme.

When a track can be used for both an adorable overworld theme and for endlessly crushing slimes you know you've done a fantastic job! Such a fun piece of music <3
