Title: Constellations
Composer: JP Neufeld
Game: Solar 2 (2011)

Pixel Mixers VGM Cover Contest Entry, February 2018: "Space"

What better game to convey space than Solar 2, a game where you play AS space?

I tried a lot of new stuff with this video, including wiring my MIDI accordion's new button pad to light up when certain keys are pressed. But mostly, I used this project as an opportunity to give me some extra audio and video editing experience and take some creative liberties with both that I couldn't normally do with a solo accordion recording. I also haven't touched my spring drum in a while, and I thought it was a perfect fit to complement the original tune's spacey, atmospheric vibe.
