Oembboe here again with more words and things! Please read at your own leisure.

Still working on The Birth Of You and a few other tracks which will make you cream your pants. Can't wait to show you when it's done! It's going to be even better than the original.

Now since we're on the subject of originals, I'm going to do something new. I'm going to post some of my personal favorite compositions, despite their critical ratings. Some of these were well received, some weren't. Rate freely and feel free to criticize!

V---V

Distance 2001 - I am very fond of this one because it takes me back so far. I really did compose this song a long-ass time ago ( though I am unsure as if it was really back in 2001 or not. It was probably more around 2003, but oh well. I couldn't be assed to change it). This song was made with nothing but a game boy camera, a 3.5mm audio cable, and some spare time. On the Game Boy Camera, you can only compose songs with 16 notes, so it was super limited. Though I use far superior tools these days, I can't help but miss all the days I've spent throwing loops together behind that dot-matrix, monochrome screen.

Footsteps (I hear Footsteps) - This is one I thought I had uploaded, but never did. Sure, it's not too significant to the outsider, but I am fascinated listening to it because the mood of it is so different from anything else I've composed since then. I think this was one of the last songs I composed on the Game Boy.

Module Revival - Now this one never fails to get my foot knocking or my head bobbing. This was a song I made in Renoise using old Amiga samples. It was actually not very hard to make. I am fond of this one because it is the longest song I've made to date and it also has a very nice beat to it. Seriously, my friends have told me that this one always gets them dancing, and I think that's a very good thing! I plan to make another song like this one day, since I've got ASSLOADS of old .Mods and .XMs I can rip sounds out of.

Between throwing loops together on a game boy to making intricate dance songs on the computer, I've enjoyed these past two years of composing. Perhaps one day, you will see me remake these rhythms into something even better than they were. Who knows? Just stay tuned.

That being said, I may not be the most popular musician on the portal, but I always appreciate my fans! Thank you for being such great listeners these past years. Now lend your ears for the next two!

Love, Oembboe (It's pronounced "Em-Bee", you jackass!)

PS: Yes, that really is Doom on the ZX spectrum.
