MAGFest 2020 – Open Mic performance

Here’s footage of my only Chipspace Open Mic performance in 2020, courtesy of Nerdfit. I didn’t have a set theme this year, but I made sure to play the 2020 version of my All Star remix, a new version of my Gourmet Race/Superman cover with SimpleFlips memes, and by Sam Mulligan‘s request, my ChipWINter Wilderness track. The full set list is as follows:

00:36 – Haunted Mouth
04:01 – 1-2 Superman
08:32 – Spaghetti in my Stocking

Spaghetti in my Stocking

This track was featured on the ChipWIN Winter-themed album ChipWINter Wilderness. I started writing this song under the title “Spaghettaboutit,” but I only had the title and melody down, and that I wanted the mood to be happy. It was going to be about the feeling of being awkward and embarrassing myself (or “dropping my spaghetti“), and shaking that feeling off and having fun. I had trouble progressing on the song, so I set it aside for a few years… And then I was approached to create a winter track. I started fleshing the song out with Christmas music tropes (sleigh bells, church bells, generic chord progressions, etc.) and this was the result.

Sound familiar? You may recognize this song from my demo reel. If not, go check that out!

Pumpkin-Flavored Eggnog

This was my first single released to Bandcamp. It’s an original song, named after the season that makes me happiest: autumn! It didn’t have to be based on anything, really, I just wanted to write a happy tune.
