Welcome,

Here you will find all sorts of audio that i have created for the Assemblee competition.  Looping music, voice samples, sound effects, atmospheric loops, it's all here!

Enjoy!

MUSIC

LOOPS
CALM RETALIATION - WAV, MP3, OGG - A short loop, maybe for menu screen.  Revised: lowered bass in mix.
PRECARIOUS PRECIPITATION - WAV, MP3, OGG - A slow, atmospheric, acoustic loop.  Good for rainy, depressed days.
FLINT'S THEME - WAV, MP3, OGG - Theme for a contemplative character.
SUNNY UNDERWATER NIGHTMARE - WAV, MP3, OGG - Chiptune with a sleepy beat and crackly drone.
THICK CUT FRIES - WAV, MP3, OGG - SID beats with a tweaked out melody.
UNDER THE OVERWORLD - WAV, MP3, OGG - A short solo ukulele song.
MAYOR OF DUBTON - WAV, MP3, OGG - Chill chiptune dub served hot.
GO GO GO GO GO - WAV, MP3, OGG - NES squarewave rock guitars are go!  Obligatory key change is go!

LAYERED
BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE - listen - drums1, drums2, bass1, bass2, melody - A simple layered song.  There is no chord progression.  All samples are intended to simply be mixed and matched.

SOUND EFFECTS

SINGLE EVENT
TYPING DIALOGUE - MP3 - Sounds annoying by itself, but if you loop it silently in the background and only unmute it while some dialogue is typing out, it works rather well.
SFXR SOUND PACK - listen, download zip - Over 150 wav samples compiled from SFXR into one juicy 5MB ZIP file.  Experience such sound effects as Shoot, Jump and even Epic Explosion.

LOOPING ATMOSPHERIC
BELL TOWER - WAV, MP3, OGG - Distant clanging.  Creepy.
THE HEAVENS ARE SUSPECT - WAV, MP3, OGG - Droney, pretty, this loop is good for heavenly hallowed halls or a quiet moment.

VOCAL

IN-GAME ANNOUNCER
PHRASES - listen, download zip - Announcer saying things like "dastardly", "combo", "fight!", "begin!", etc.
NUMBERS - listen, download zip - Announcer saying numbers individually.  Combine them to make announcer say large numbers.
LO-FI - download zip - Downsampled versions of Numbers and Phrases packs.

HERO - Typical male protagonist.
NON-VERBAL - listen, download zip

GOLEM - Booming low voice.  Good for large lumbering characters.
NON-VERBAL - listen, download zip

PURE EVIL - Straight from the underworlds.
NON-VERBAL - listen, download zip

Wow, I never thought ukuleles could sound so pretty. The chip-bass seems a little overpowering, though. Keep up the good work!

[smgorden]

Nice little ditty. If, as the previous reply suggests, you decide to handle the overpowering sound underneath the uke, I might suggest finding a thinner percussion instrumentation. The bass could just be turned down slighty, if anything. Just my taste, but that's what I would do. Definitely glad to hear tune! Keep it up.

[feeblethemighty]

Thanks for the input!  I agree that the bass is overpowering.  I will try my best to adjust it and upload a new one later.

But for now, i made a new moody, atmospheric tune this afternoon called Precarious Precipitation.  I plan on making some much more upbeat tunes later.  Fret not.

Man I love ukulele. The world needs more ukulele music! Especially in games.

[feeblethemighty]

Actually, i do have a ukulele which i like to rock out on, but right now i've been messing around with my Guitalele which is a 6-string ukulele and is much better suited to slower contemplative songs.

I'm having too much fun with this.  I should be doing other things, but i already came up with another tune.  This one's called Flint's Theme.  It kinda reminded me of meeting a new character in an RPG or something.

Any constructive criticism is welcome.

[Healy]

The intro sounds a little out of tune, but then I don't know much about instruments.  Sounds like a great tune to set to getting lost in a strange place.

Calm Retaliation is great . It's like.. chip-folk. The others are cool too.

Thanks!  Yeah, i've always liked mixing electronic and acoustic music.

I've reworked Calm Retaliation so the bass isn't so loud in the mix. 

Also, i added a sound effect, Typing Dialogue, that sounds annoying by itself, but i found if you mute it and have it looping constantly in the background and unmute it only when dialogue is typing out in your game, it sounds pretty good.

[smgorden]

Hey, I've been following. The revised Calm Retaliation is much cleaner. It's sort of minimalist sound, but has a great vibe to it now that stands out. Well done.

[Acid]

I like Precarious Precipitation. A lot. It seems like it would be the perfect title music for a 'serious' game.

Thanks.  I'm hoping to get a good range of different styles and sounds during this competition, serious all the way to ridiculous.

Just made another tune today: Sunny Underwater Nightmare.  It's purely chiptune right now, with a sleepy beat and a constant drone in the background.  I was thinking of maybe adding some ukulele arpeggios in too if it was too minimal of a song.  Check it out.

[Ipsquiggle]

I like underwater nightmare quite a bit, it's pretty inspiring.  However, it gets under my skin just a little bit in the part where the high-pitched pinging is playing on beat with the main synth: They hit every note at the exact same time through the entire stanza. If just one or two notes were off from each other, or the high-pitched ping had a couple extra notes that weren't matched by the main synth, I think it would add quite a lot.

Basically, the high pinging feels a bit like the hero of that segment, but it's 'trapped' by the main synth. It wants to break free and be it's own melody! Does that make sense?

[takvor]

You, sir, have inspired me to break out my uke.

No good can come of this.

Yeah, after listening to it again, i see what you mean.  I'll see if i can tweak it.  Thanks for the advice!   

Another chiptune type song: Thick Cut Fries.  This one has SID chip beats and a rather playful melody.  I think for my next entries, i'm going to use mostly my uke to make a Runman inspired soundtrack.
