Track round-up February 2024

Added 2024-03-04 03:31:40 +0000 UTC

This month saw many projects moving to completion! I finally finished my 2016-2023 full discography for second tiers and up. It's a complete package of everything I have ever released to streaming services, including 30 releases, 220 tracks and 200 scores. Do consider pledging in the Minim (Deluxe Megapack) tier if you want to download it! But in the all-tier category I finally released my full fledged, 14-track Stardew Valley album that I hope all of you are enjoying. In addition to that, I'm almost done with my next anime EP, so please look forward to that. Without further ado, here is the February package!

-Time Flows Ever Onward (Frieren) - Intermediate
-A Blooming Flower in the Next Seat (Komi Can't Communicate) - Intermediate
-How Close Are They? (Komi Can't Communicate) - Easy/Intermediate
-Pelican Town (Stardew Valley) - Easy/Intermediate (Three Hands)
-Fall (Ghost Synth, Stardew Valley) - Intermediate

I know, having three hands for an arrangement is quite unorthodox, but there was no other way in this case if I wanted it to be authentic. The idea is that you can either play it with two hands and it will be an easier, but slightly less full arrangement, or you can perform it with a friend (or two!). This month, all of the arrangements are in the somewhat slower category, and none of them are extremely difficult, so they can all be tackled with practice. The Frieren piece does require jumps and precise technique however, and so does the first Komi piece and the Fall piece to a certain extent as well. The second Komi piece has a very forgiving and free tempo, but it should be played with grace and with flourishing arpeggios. All in all, a good batch of pieces for the intermediate player, with challenges that can be conquered!

As usual the zip includes MP3, MIDI, MUS and PDF files. Keep in mind that the difficulty is only an estimation, but there is a separate Patron tier if you'd like me to make an easier version of an arrangement. Remember that you can always reach me on Patreon messages for questions :) See you next time!
