Since this seems to be the section of this board where we share our music projects, I thought I'd share some of my finished songs for anyone who's interested.
I write video game instrumental tracks in the vein of mid-2000s flash, indie, or hand-held games. My strongest influences are from Touhou Project, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Pokemon. Feedback would be appreciated, particularly in the composition and mixing.

Another combat track. I imagine this would be for a mostly projectile-based boss with a bunch of spiraling bullet patterns, maybe a couple lasers thrown in for good measure.
I've been told during the production of this that I need to make some edits to the panning and add a second guitar to equal the left-panned guitar that's currently on it. I'll be honest, I added it to the song, and it didn't sound bad but I also liked it way less so I decided to ignore the advice. Maybe for a future track but not this one.

I've used the rhythm of this song's main motif in a couple songs in the past, but this is probably the first time I've used it so prominently. This was also an experiment with mixed meter with triplets and the odd quintuplet sprinkled in every 4 bars.
Links to More Of My Songs: Note: not every song I've written is on both platforms and different versions of some songs are on different platforms. E.g. Some of my older tracks are only on Soundcloud, while some of my 2021 songs on Youtube are slightly different from the 2020 versions on Soundcloud.A Mad Grab for Greatness | Youtube mirror
This was a short track I originally wrote for a friend that I extended to be a full-length song. I wanted it to sound intense, but not overly aggressive. I was hoping for the syncopation on that repeating riff on the piano to give it this frantic quality to it. I think I succeeded?
