MUSIC Pixel Dungeon Theme (8 Bit Cover)

(I wrote a whole description and Reddit nuked it... sigh... here's the jist...)

I had writers block so decided to remake the main theme to the roguelike game Pixel Dungeon/Shattered Pixel Dungeon in 8 bit NES style. Made in Furnace with mix tweaks and mastering in Cubasis (iPad). 2A03 and VRC6.

I chose to worry less about hardware accuracy and give it a little bit of polish (mainly rebalancing the triangle which was way too loud and raising the noise which I had under mixed... added some parallel compression, limiting, little bit of EQ, and some tasteful stereo space/reverb... I also didn't like the crunchy DPCM samples for this track, so ran them in normal PCM mode for clarity)

Credit to u/CubeCode for the original comp and Lumine Thomas Haaristo for the Shattered rearrangement that I'm more familiar with.

when making my track “Liminal Space Interlude” for my M8 album Bad Vices, i aimed to recreate/nod to that classic eurodance sound. one of the songs i used as a reference was “Better Off Alone” by Alice Deejay. i played my track for a few friends and they said it reminded them of Better Off Alone, which made me very happy! but it also gave me the idea to try and mash them together. so, i took her vocals and put them over my track. it’s not an official remix at the moment but who knows what the future holds :) my original track is on all streaming platforms under my name amateurLSDJ, as well as my Bandcamp.

I became a music transcriber during the pandemic; I watched a ton of videos on music theory, harmony, instruments, and much more. I used to figure out songs by ear, but one day I wanted to know how to write them down, so I started by transcribing bass and guitar lines, then added drums and more instruments, eventually recreating the entire piece.
