NeOST is a weekly song prompt that challenges you to make soundtracks for media that doesn't exist. Each prompt will present a familiar scenario or design problem from famous media. Participants will create soundtracks for these scenarios using samples that I have provided.

NeOST_2 - "Town"


With the samples provided, write music for a "town" area in a fictional video game, TV show, etc. The specifics of the town and the media it belongs to are for you to explore.

The deadline for NeOST_2 is end-of-day Monday, January 25. All submissions made on time will be grouped into a Soundcloud playlist. The samples, as well as an Ableton file, can be downloaded here: https://we.tl/t-VHLoIPdvHq

really testing the limits of how lost the samples can get in the mix here, sorry. also i accidentally wrote a wedding march and there's just nothing i can do about that.

anyway, this is the end of walking the tour de mont blanc. you arrive in les houches and are free to continue wandering about or visit the hiking shop to spend your trail points
