- Themes -

The 3 themes are:

Ice Cream Town

For this theme, you need to make music that is centered around a snowy atmosphere! But it should be very sweet music. For this theme, you can explore different flavors like neighborhoods, or maybe even take inspiration from ice cream truck jingles, be creative!

Firefly Town

This theme is more about the night, or maybe just gloomy! You could create a lullaby or use firefly sounds, be creative!

Photosynthesis City

A city based on photosynthesis, which requires mixing technology and nature, think solar punk! For this you can use analog instruments or alternate between electronic and acoustic, be creative!
