There's plenty of stuff which I start composing and then at some point have no idea waht to do with it or even come up to a conclusion that I'm not good enough to continue it. Today, as a present from me to you on my birthday, I will release most of the tracker files that have been lying around for a while, as well as some previews of songs I'm actually going to finish.

Alzu Theme (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Allie-M.it) - this was supposed to be a gift for Allie-M (http://allie-m.deviantart.com)'s 18th birthday, but it's been over a year now and I still can't figure out how to continue it. A funky tune, sounds like something fearofdark could make.

AnGRRRRR (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/AnGRRRRR.s3m) - this is actually a finished piece, though not mixed yet (as in, volume and panning not adjusted). I also wrote lyrics for it and I would record it already, if it weren't for the fact that my mic appears broken. As for the track itself, this is probably the most furious song I have ever written, it's like Hulk running out of your headphones. People say it sounds a lot like Nine Inch Nails' earlier songs, and while I'm not denying, it was not intended. I'm not going to give it up just because of this, though.

Back and Forth (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Baf.it) - another one supposed to have lyrics, this is a simple remix of Egg Shelter map theme from Sonic Battle. I was inspired by Limp Bizkit's "The Key" when tracking this, as well as when writing lyrics for it. I should record them someday.

(untitled) (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Beznazwy1.it) - this was supposed to be a song for Razz Arena, but I gave it up when I got angry with the melody kicking in near the end of this file, as it constantly was out of tune. The beginning is fun, the rest is not. Natural death.

Epic Showdown of Massive Proportions (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Boss%20Remix.it) - ooooh, this is something cool. This is an early (but somewhat long already) version of another JJGBA remix I'm working on, this time the boss/final boss themes combined together. You will notice that when working on it I actually skipped a part to work on a further one. I'm thinking of how to write the one skipped right now. Actually, I guess this will be one of the last JJGBA remixes finished, as it's going to be LOOOOONG and EPIC. I could actually give you some other remix WIPs, but that would be a bit too much. >:3

Brinstar Shaft / Turtemple (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Brinstar%20Turtemple.s3m) - a mash-up of the Brinstar red soil shaft area theme from Super Metroid and Turtemple theme we all know and love (right?). I may actually finish this. It sounds nice, I actually started making the Brinstar parts sound cooler already, while the Turtemple ones still are just transposed around a bit. Plus, mash-ups are always fun. \o/

Me, I'm Done (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/C-U.it) - although both the filename and the tracker name say "See You", this is the title I am using for it now. It's the first time ever I wrote such a lenghty, full-scale solo, and although it still has some notes out of tune, it sounds nice as a whole. I'd love to fix this, but I can't really figure out what exactly needs to be fixed and how much. Also, the percussion here is pretty boring. I'll have to vary it a bit sometime later.

3D Demo (Stream Mix) (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/lol%20hip%20hop.s3m) - remember when Black Ninja for a hip-hop remix of 3D Demo? This is all I made so far. :P Lack of ideas, really. I already started it over two times. Don't get angry. :(

New Way (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/New%20Way.it) - pretty old. It's more or less finished, just waiting for some real guitars to be recorded, as well as vocals. Even though there are a few recordings of the latter, I am unsatisfied with them, and so I'm still trying to get my voice right for it. A fun song, this could be quite a hit once finished.

No Care (JungRock PunkRock) (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/PunkSong6.it) - oooold. Crappy percussion, crappy samples, whatever is done of the solo is sux as well. The lyrics I wrote for it aren't very bright either. Still, it's fun. I don't know how, it just is. MAYBE if I rewrote it from scratch in Fruity Loops or something like that it would be worthwhile. But I'm too lazy. :cool:

White Outside (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/White%20Outside.it) - winter song. Another example of stopping on a solo that is too hard for a wimp like me. Too bad, it's a cute tune. It really has a mood, at least in the beginning.

Play World (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/zabawa.s3m) - this was supposed to be a lenghty, cool rock song with intelligent lyrics. The lyrics are there, however, the music is barely started. DoggyDogg recorded guitars for it and it sounds great, but it doesn't really get to the point where it would REALLY kick. Still, a nice listen. Maybe it could even work in Jazz2, if the quality of recorded parts was lessened.

Vampire's Delight (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Vampire's%20Delight.it) - a result of one of my jam sessions on keyboard. The main melody got stuck in my head for a while, so I had to rewrite it in Modplug. Now as I listen to it, it's so-so. I think I'm not going to continue it.

Wasser (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Wasser.it) - an... experiment. The drumloop here is SO out of tempo.

(untitled) (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Beznazwy3.s3m) - two spooky loops. One sounds a LOT like Spore Spawn fight theme from Super Metroid.

(untitled) (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Beznazwy4.s3m) - some guitar loop.

(untitled) (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Beznazwy5.s3m) - some moody strings loop.

(untitled) (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Beznazwy6.s3m) - some REALLY COOL rock & roll loop. Shame I have no idea what to do with it. :(

(untitled) (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Beznazwy7.s3m) - a touchy piano loop I came up with just recently.

...Medivo? (http://www.jsz-clan.republika.pl/Medivo.s3m) - lol wut

That is all I have to share. There are more files, but some are left over at home, and some are just too uninteresting to even bother showing. Have fun.
