Town music always kicks ass, so I started from there.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve always loved the town of Soneros as a tropical-resort-like town. Even in the very first Arvale (<a href=\"https:\/\/jaybot7.com\/blog\/free-games\">Journey of Illusion<\/a>) I wanted it to have its own separate music track. At the time, we ran out of memory space (mobile device constraints) and it had to be shelved. But when I got around to Arvale II, I learned a few tricks on how to save more space and include more music (as I mentioned in <a href=\"https:\/\/jaybot7.com\/blog\/arvale-game-designs-on-paper-part-2\">this design article<\/a>) and was finally able to include Soneros&#8217;s music.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, this track is still heavily influenced on the original Soneros music, but updated with better instrumentation and well, awesomeness. I won&#8217;t give away the whole track, but start from it&#8217;s C-section (did I just say that? I mean ABABC!), the theme which sounds completely different than the rest of the track as I really like it, and it&#8217;s easy to pass over it. Nylon string guitar and the soft clarinet really mesh well and have a nice foil to the rest of the tunes poppy piano and flute melody.<\/p>\n<p>Ah, and here&#8217;s the track: <a href=\"https:\/\/jaybot7.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/town3sample.mp3\">town3sample<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Enjoy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I couldn&#8217;t help myself and wrote some new music for a few sections in the game.
