Break it Down (8-bit)

Share

Author Comments

This track is an 8-bit I put together after a night with the Chess Club.

I started off the track with alternating styles to emphasize the difference between the two sides, white and black.

Once the breakdown occurs, I imagined both sides playing on, until white the upper hand, and then the melody slowly comes back in, building as his advantage grows, trading, building his momentum against black, more and more.

One tremendous, unforeseen mistake, and black snatches back the advantage (right around 2:44).

Finally, a series of black's well-played moves brought on by the now crumbling white defense brings him to an eventual victory, leaving his opponent utterly broken, done in by his own overconfidence.

This track is available for download from my Bandcamp page, at https://eliteferrex.bandcamp.com/track/break-it-down-8-bit

I hope you enjoy it!

great 8bit music! I will find R-type and play it again :) Thanks for wayback

One of the greatest tracks I've listened to! The beat and the song itself I thought was very upbeat. Keep up the amazing work! Can't wait to see another track like this! I'm definitely going to use this in Geometry Dash.

Amazing...well...will you make the 16-bit version ? or extended (Remastered) ?

Woah Dude Can I use this in a Game!?
